#168. Strengthening Your Intuition

This episode we're addressing the tension or challenge between meeting two human needs, Authenticity and Belonging. Kate overviews the concept of Authenticity and then illustrates the tension that can be felt between choosing to be authentic and belong using models of development and motivation from humanistic psychology including, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and Erickson's Stages of Psychosocial Development. 
Questions Kate poses to help you explore your values and driving motives, to help facilitate authenticity: What matters to me?What do I want to stand for and want to orient my life around?What do I believe are the ingredients of a great and happy life?

#166. One Question that Helps Me Have Faith

Kate is breaking down the crucially important difference between supportive compassionate helping, and enabling bad behavior. 
There is a blurry line between the two that is often complicated by personal and caring relationships. But it is a slippery slope, and while no one ever intends to enable behavior in another that is unhealthy, supportive helping can turn into enabling behavior. 
In this episode Kate outlines: The difference between Compassion & EnablingHow enabling can do harmThe relationships where we need to be aware of the potential to become an enablerHow we can recognize enabling behavior in ourselves3 ways we can move away from enabling, and back towards compassion
