Releasing the Pressure to Be Your "Best-Self" Apr 22, 2022

Show notes

For awhile, I was a bit addicted to self-improvement. Always striving to be my "best-self." But I found that I was getting far too caught up in what others defined as being your "best-self," it wasn't MY definition of success. This episode dives into my reflection on this pressure we put on ourselves to "grow" and "become" something greater than what we are in this moment. What if we made the goal just to listen to our own inner compass? Could we learn to trust that growth will come from listening to ourselves, rather than trying to force something to work?

"I Have Too Many Interests." Apr 22, 2022

Show notes

Would you describe yourself as a multi-passionate person? Do you struggle to "just pick" a path to follow? This episode is for those who feel like there are so many choices they could make to move forward that they freeze in place. I share an exercise I use with my clients to help them "taste test" a potential path for their life that leaves room to pivot if it's not what they truly want or expected.

Inclusion Statement Apr 22, 2022

Show notes

My goal is to ensure that my podcast, my online presence, feels like an inclusive space for all. My clients come from diverse backgrounds, with diverse experiences. As a trauma-informed coach, I never want to pressure any of my clients to speak about their stories publicly before they're ready (if they are ever ready to do so.) They deserve the right to process what they learn, making these big life changes in a way that feels safe and comforting for them. For many, safety means privacy. Or at least, privacy for now. So, keep in mind, those who felt like it was a YES to be interviewed this season, happen to all identify as women. But I do not work solely with individuals who identify as women. My clients are of all ages, gender identities, race, etc. My client's stories are each beautiful, unique, and most importantly, theirs. The stories I will be sharing still represent themes that feel very universal. My hope is that we can see the similarities and that their wisdom and insights offer you support on your own journey.
