    Show notes

    Do you ever feel paralyzed by indecision, stuck in a loop of self-doubt, decision overwhelm, and perfectionism? Welcome to the club! We know what it’s like, and what it takes to get unstuck.

    Whether you're facing a career crossroads, struggling to start a creative project, or battling the incessant inner monologue of your monkey mind, this episode is here to help.

    I’m joined by my friend and brilliant coach, Sasha Patpatia, a multidisciplinary artist, writer, and board-certified career coach for creatives. Sasha has helped me navigate pivotal moments in my career, and equipped me with mindset tools I still use to move from overthinking to action.

    Some brain chemistry-altering quotes from Sasha in today’s episode:

    “It is only the friction between where you are and where you want to be — which is called tension — that shuts us down and makes us feel stuck.”

    “Our definition of success is doing what I said I would do, with clarity, focus, ease & grace.”

    If you're feeling stuck, lost, or burnt out, join us for a deep look at how to overcome mental blocks and move forward in alignment with your purpose.

    Tune in to hear more about:

    ✅ How to get unstuck, use stuckness as data, and take consistent action.

    ✅ Overcoming decision paralysis with a three-part choice and decision reframe (that takes the pressure off!).

    ✅ Dealing with self-doubt and monkey mind: Navigating excuses and negativity bias without judgment.

    ✅ The myth of motivation: Stop waiting for the “right time”!

    ✅ Reframing our idea of success and failure

    ✅ What’s behind creative burnout?

    ✅ How to find the right career coach

    ✅ The power of emotional regulation, + a combined approach of mindset coaching and somatic bodywork

    Just remember, ready is not a feeling, it’s a decision. You’ve got this.

    Welcome to today’s ICYMI, where we kick off the week with a quick game-changing tip from one of our guests that you might have missed.

    A healthy money mindset is the missing ingredient for a lot of people's financial security. Nicole reminds us that "Money is just a magnifier of who you already are" - so our habits, beliefs, and relationship to money right now will dictate how we approach our financial goals for life.

    How Your Love Language Reveals Your Toxic Traits & Self-Sabotaging Habits | The Quickie Mar 19, 2025
    Show notes

    I saw a TikTok about how your toxic traits can be the exact opposite of your love language, and I CANNOT stop thinking about it. If you’re stuck in a cycle of self-sabotage, your toxic behaviours might be the inverse of your love language — aka your loathe language. 🤯

    In today's quickie, we’re diving into the connection between our love languages and self-destructive habits so we can recognize the patterns that hold us back.

    If you find yourself defaulting to isolation, negative self-talk, avoidance, deprivation, or burnout, understanding and interrupting your 'loathe language' can help you better meet your needs before you spiral.

    Ready to stop blocking yourself from the love and support you deserve? Tune in to hear more about:
    ✔️ How your self-destructive habits are linked to your love language
    ✔️ How the shadow side of quality time is isolating from loved ones
    ✔️ Why people who value acts of service might refuse help and burn themselves out
    ✔️ How the shadow side of physical touch is withdrawing from affection and neglecting self-care
    ✔️ Why the shadow of receiving gifts cab turn into impulse shopping or restriction
    ✔️ How those who value words of affirmation can spiral into self-criticism and silence
    ✔️ How to break the cycle and give yourself the love you actually need

    Show notes

    I'm SO sick of "having nothing to wear"... I’ve been going through a wardrobe crisis lately—I dread getting dressed, and despite having way too many clothes, I never feel like my wardrobe reflects who I am. I feel disconnected from my style and the things I buy, and I'm not the only one.

    Hitting different life stages and engaging in a cycle of overconsumption—buying more but feeling less satisfied—has left a lot of us without a clear sense of style and identity. Today, we’re tackling both issues: how to define your personal style with confidence, and how to cut down on mindless shopping and fast fashion.

    I’m joined by Conni Jespersen, educational wardrobe stylist and founder of Art in the Find, who has spent over a decade helping people craft intentional wardrobes, edit their closets, and break free from excessive consumption. Through her Signature Style Method Course, she helps clients edit their closets and uncover their unique style.

    We uncover how to build a wardrobe that truly feels like you—without the stress, overconsumption, or pressure to keep up with trends. If you’re over impulse buying, feeling lost in your personal style, or staring at a closet full of clothes with “nothing to wear"... we gotchu.

    Conni has kindly given Teach Me How To Adult listeners a discount on her Signature Style Method Course (which has helped me SO much in understanding the elements of my personal style), so if you’re ready to revamp your wardrobe, check it out here and use the discount code style10for 10% off.

    How A 'Fear List' Can Change Your Life: Stop Self-Rejecting & Unlock Confidence Feb 26, 2025
    Show notes

    What would you do if failure was impossible? What's something you've always wanted to do, but never find "the right time"? To answer these questions, I started one little list in January, and it has completely changed my life.

    We all know about bucket lists — but what if the real game-changer isn’t chasing what excites you, but confronting what scares you? Enter: The Fear List.

    Fear has been in the driver's seat of my life for too long, and I realized during my January meltdown, that my avoidance of discomfort and rejection were directly impacting my happiness and growth. Most of the things I was depressed about in my life could be traced to fear-based avoidance and inaction. That's why I created the fear list — it helps you rewire your brain to stop self-rejecting before you even try. Think of it like exposure therapy... this list of things will create proof that you can do scary things, and the more small uncomfortable things you do, the less scary the big things will feel.

    This episode is all about breaking out of fear-based paralysis and taking action on the things that hold you back. If you’ve been feeling stuck, playing small, or letting fear dictate your choices—this is your sign to flip the script.

    In this episode, I cover:
    ✅ How my fear has kept me stuck in life, love, and career

    ✅ The connection between fear, anxiety, and perfectionism

    ✅ Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) and why some of us with ADHD/neurodivergence fear rejection more

    ✅ The power of exposure therapy and why courage is a muscle

    ✅ How to create your own Fear List to build confidence, resilience, and momentum

    ✅ Questions that will help you brainstorm your fear list

    ✅ Getting honest with yourself about the stories you’re telling yourself

    ✅ Easy examples of things you can include on your fear list

    ✅ What’s on my list, and the wins I’ve already tackled (LITERALLY LIFE-CHANGING)

    ✅ Why staying accountable and tracking your progress gamifies fear and makes it fun

    Remember: "The risk you’re afraid to take, could be the one that changes your entire life."
