Charge My Core

Are you feeling a pull away from the online world? Have you ever tried a digital detox? When is the last time you truly unplugged? 

In episode 64, I interview Hector Hughes about his journey of starting Unplugged, what common objections people have to trying digital detoxes, and all things living a more balanced life with technology. It is such an authentic and exciting conversation that will definitely inspire you to put down your phone. 

Hector is the Cofounder of Unplugged- a startup helping people live happier lives by providing digital detoxes at beautiful cabins in the U.K.  Unplugged launched in the summer of 2020 and now have 11 digital detox cabins dotted outside of London.

I wanted Charge My Core to be a safe space for guests to get vulnerable about their journey of self discovery and for you to feel less alone navigating the modern digital world.  I want the interviews to be real people with real inspiring stories of self discovery.

If you want to connect with Hector, ask him questions or  learn more about Unplugged, you can find more information on their website https://unplugged.rest/ or their Instagram.

First we dive into why there has been a slight pause on episode releases for Charge My Core which actually ties in really well with the topic of today's episode. Obviously ;)  Then we dive into Nuance- the definition and two elements of nuance, nuanced intersectionalism, and growth vs. fixed mindset. 

We  also cover a concept from an article by Tayo Rockson about the framework of nuanced intersectionalism. Here is the full article: https://tayorockson.com/blog/the-lost-art-of-nuance (which was written in 2018 and is even more relevant today.

TW: SUICIDE

Do you consider yourself to be "the strong friend?" Are you someone that people turn to for emotional support and advice? Do people have a perception of you that isn't necessarily accurate based on the way your present to the outside world?

With the tragic global news of Cheslie Kryst dying by alleged suicide this week and so much advice circulating the internet about "checking on your strong friends." I wanted to dive into this topic because suicide is extremely close to my heart and so few people talk about it.

This is a kick in the butt style episode to inspire us ALL to examine and determine how to change at a macro level.

I reference an amazing Instagram post from Marline Francois which you can see on her profile here. 

I also reference a previous Charge My Core episode entitled "I Need to Ask for Help: But HOW?" 

This is inspired by my interpretation and opinion of how the public and the media deals with tragic suicides. I am sending all my love to those who love Cheslie Kryst and are impacted by her passing. May she rest in peace.

Do you think positive affirmations are a bunch of woo woo bullshit?  Can you admit your inner critic is showing up more than usual RN? In  episode 56, I give you a PEP TALK if you really want to reevaluate your inner critic and how you are speaking to yourself. How can trending audios on social media help? Well, like all of "the work"  I believe it doesn't have to be super serious. GO LITTLE ROCKSTAR!

Just like all of our relationships, our relationship with ourself FLUCTUATES! This is normal.

And spoiler alert: there is SCIENCE behind positive affirmations and their impact on our brain!
