There are many other stories in our lives that intersect and influence our own. When we are working to become the heroes of our stories, we want to find the clear division between ours and someone else's so we can separate the two and work on ours alone. The only story we can control is our own. I share a recent experience of this happening to me.

12 - The Importance of Time

Friday Oct 20, 2023

Friday Oct 20, 2023

In my work, I often find that people strive to rush their development. We have a tendency to set goals such as fitting into smaller clothes, learning a new skill, or working through trauma or maladaptive coping mechanism, and a big pitfall is not allowing ourselves the time to make the changes. This is difficult work and it takes time for our brains to change and accept any new habit or behavior, even if it's a healthier one. What would happen if we gave ourselves the time to change?

Here is one of the most helpful tools I've learned about changing the self-limiting beliefs that are holding me back: change who I listen to! It sounds very simple on the face of it, yet most of the people I interact with are under incredible negative influence from those around them. It's also about what we are saying to ourselves, which is work in and of itself to notice the unconscious dialogue that can harm our self-worth.

10 - How Much You Care

Friday Oct 06, 2023

Friday Oct 06, 2023

Earlier this year I came upon a quote from Theodore Roosevelt that's just stuck with me: "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care."
Let that sink in a little. How many interactions with others have you had where you were hurt by someone sharing their knowledge and understanding, but you didn't feel heard or seen? It's as if their words were meant more to make themselves feel better, or even superior, than to help you.
Let's take some time to explore this concept of caring for others before we jump in and fix it.

08 - Burnout

Friday Sep 22, 2023

Friday Sep 22, 2023

Burnout. Have you ever experienced this common phenomenon in society today where we're expected to do more and more with less time and energy? This is what I'm experiencing and it's also why it's a shorter episode. Burnout is real and you can avoid it.

06 - Mental Health

Friday Sep 08, 2023

Friday Sep 08, 2023

It's time for another serious topic: our mental health. It impacts us in likely more ways than we know. More and more people are becoming aware of how important it is to take care of themselves mentally, and yet there is also much in our lives and society that is providing mixed messages of what entails taking care of our mental health.
While it's difficult to take a comprehensive look at mental health in thirty minutes, it's my sincerest hope that this sheds light on it's importance and provides ideas of how you can take care of your mental health.

05 - The Hero’s Journey

Friday Sep 01, 2023

Friday Sep 01, 2023

Let's take a step away from the heavy conversations and look at what the hero's journey looks like. Coined by Joseph Campbell, this model of storytelling has become so common over the years that you see tales like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Hunger Games and find similar components. The seven steps I focus on are:
1) The ordinary world
2) The call to adventure
3) Refusal of the call
4) The mentor
5) Crossing the threshold
6) The ordeal
7) The return

04 - Self-Care

Friday Aug 25, 2023

Friday Aug 25, 2023

Here is one of my favorite topics: Self-Care! It's an important part of our ability to navigate the world and relationships around us, yet it's something that we often avoid because we see it as selfish. Or worse we were told it's selfish.
Self-care is not selfishness. It's protecting yourself from burning out and investing in yourself so you can invest in others. It also helps us prevent our bounce back from being dysregulated. It's necessary, worth doing, and can be a lot of fun all at the same time.
