Gaining Grit Podcast

Lots of changes announced in this week's episode, but it all stems from me responding to the statement "You became a Human Design Expert". Something has felt 'off' in my business for a long while, and I couldn't put my finger on it. And I finally realized that the way I was talking about my business and promoting it, did not align with what I was actually doing and what I wanted to be doing within it. I also share my new few resource, The Awareness Manual that has become such a point of pride for me, and I can't wait to share it with you.

This Week I Talk About:

• Refocusing my brand

• How we are all unique and what works for one person isn't going to work for everyone

• Understanding my ambition through human design

• The awareness manual

• How human design can help our relationship with ourselves and others

Second time is the charm for this episode as I'm learning when to listen to my gut (sacral authority) and it telling me that something doesn't feel right, and to wait for the clarity to come for me to respond and pivot. This is all MY correct way of processing and moving forward, which is different for everyone. In this week's episode, I talk about the importance of asking ourselves the right question, how I got burnt out from my 1:1 coaching by answering the wrong one. And how knowing what lights me up, the feeling that I'm searching for, is more aligned… I'm feeling so much more energized to help people with what I was destined to help people with. Worthiness.

This Week I Talk About:

• Listening to our gut

• Understanding what our energies need

• The difference between being able to do something and doing something because you want to

• Our evolving confidence

• Understanding that parents are human beings

TW: mental illness, depression, OCD, suicidal thoughts

Oof. I had A DAY this week friends. I legitimately went from happy-smiling and feeling so pretty about having done my hair, wearing real clothes, and putting makeup on, to a sobbing mess crying out in frustration in my kitchen, sobbing while getting dressed for CrossFit, and crying on the drive to CrossFit. And as always, I like to keep it real. Seeing that picture in my stories and people reacting to how pretty it was started to feel so ingenuine after I had pretty much cried my make up off and my hair was back in a ponytail. So I wanted to talk about it… I did something a little bit different with this episode. I said I was going to talk about my experience on an Instagram Live. And then I realized, I hate going Live. So I recorded it on my phone, and figured might as well hit two birds with one stone and record it for the podcast at the same time. I'm incredibly uncomfortable on video, so this episode may or may not seem a little less "fluid" than some because of the camera facing me. But this story needed to be told.

This Week I Talk About:

• My healing journey

One of my favourite apps that I use on an almost daily basis is called Moon Calendar (I don't know if it's available for Android, but I know it's available for iOS). And this week, the energy around the moon and my signs has been telling me to listen to my intuition and "go with the flow" — and let me tell you, I was triggered. In this episode, I talk about how I've been feeling lately, requesting supportive space from my partner, Human Design aspects and energy, and what I'm doing to move forward.

This Week I Talk About:

• Staying on a rhythm

• Understanding your energy

• Finding the balance between being and doing

• Giving yourself and asking for the space that feels supportive to you

• Understanding how you operate

I went on a bit of a rant-tangent on Instagram this week, and I felt called to expand on it for this week's episode. This week I talk about the next "up-level" I'm going through in my journey to honouring my own energy, and how I've discovered more pockets in my life / my business where I'm still doing what I think I "should" be (hate that word) and doing what other people told me to — even if it didn't feel right.

This Week I Talk About:

• Recognizing when you're going against your energy

• Having to find our own "hows"

• Having external inspiration and information, but making them your own

• The lifelong journey

• How your unique interpretations and perceptions shape your reality

This week's episode is all about another part of commitment that I don't think a lot of people think about, that I haven't really talked about, and that I for sure have struggled with. Too often I see people (and have experienced) feeling stuck in my commitments and unable to move forward because they don't excite me anymore, and I feel guilty for wanting to move to something different. This episodes gives examples of struggles I've come up against and how I came out on the other side of them.

This Week I Talk About:

• Being open to changes

• Overcoming tunnel vision

• Having a good balance of commitment and being able to pivot

• Having the "perfect" plans

• Allowing yourself to quit, but dedicating until the end

Listening to Johise's feelings about vulnerability very much reminded me of how I used to view it. This week episode, we're talking to Oxford University Graduate Johise Namwira about her experience navigating new environments from high school, to undergrad, to grad school at one of the most prestigious schools in the world - and the effects that had. And navigating the strength she's discovering in showing ALL aspects of her journey.

This Week I Talk About:

• Imposter syndrome in relation to a lack of representation

• Not putting POC voices in a box

• Understanding the root of perfectionism

• Finding internal validation

• Realizing when and reaching out when we're not okay

I have all of the white privilege that I feel uncomfortable and have become so detached, and like I don't have the right to be biracial… even though I am. This week's episode talks about growing up biracial, what I witness in the different between how my mom was treated and how I'm treating, instances and memories that I buried that have been resurfaced with so many stories being shared with the Black Lives Matter Movement. As always, this episode is filled with vulnerability, and probably mistakes. But it needs to be said.

This Week I Talk About:

• Feeling like I don't have the right to be biracial

• Second hand racial experiences

• Allowing ourselves to grieve our own experiences

• Microaggressions

• Being white-washed and having our own ethnicities questioned
