One of the highlights of the conversation is Meghan's' perspective on the significance of living authentically and embracing your true self.

 

Don't' miss out on this opportunity to learn how to live a life that aligns with your values and passions.



Quotes:

 

  • "Good-on-paper is your resume, and your resume is what you present to the world. And to me, good on paper is thinking of myself as a set of credentials. Thinking of myself as having to impress somebody to earn a place, to be defined by how I slot into a profession or into a social network. It's just very external." (11:21 | Meghan Khanna)

 

  • "That inner voice is always there. It's either cheering you on, or we all have that  kind of inner critic too." (12:27 | Andrea Hecht)

 

  • "I would encourage anyone to think about self-care is that there is really no mold or no plan. As much as I just mentioned, I have habit trackers and stuff. I think that it's really important to get up and just know what you need" (16:10 | Meghan Khanna)



  • "We have these brilliant, beautiful flames that we come into the world as, and it's almost like we're putting like blankets over that flame when we get programmed to sit still or be a good girl or let someone else go first. You know, there are so many shades of programming. But then I think that when we get to a point in midlife or earlier, hopefully, we start learning how to take care of ourselves by taking those blankets off and letting that very native and original light shine again." (33:19 | Meghan Khanna)
