  • Episode 4: Self-Talk
    What is that little voice in your head telling you? Self-talk can be positive, but all too often it's negative and not at all helpful.

    Other topics include:
    • Using self-talk to your advantage
    • How to minimize the impact of negative self-talk
    • The epic After School Special, "The Amazing Cosmic Awareness of Duffy Moon" and how it relates to self-talk

  • Episode 3: Backsliding
    Everyone backslides. Shannon and Janine see it all the time in their clients (and we experience it ourselves, too).
    In this episode we discuss how backsliding is part of the process and how important it is to be kind to yourself when it happens.
    Other topics include:
    •What to do if you backslide
    • How to avoid backsliding in the future (spoiler alert: daily habits can be really helpful)
    • Janine's effort to get back into Todoist after backsliding with it
    • How being kind to yourself is good self care

  • Episode 2: Rewards
    Janine and Shannon discuss the how helpful it is to reward yourself for progress (as opposed to success).
    When you reward accomplishing steps along the way to achieving your goal, you keep yourself motivated. Rewarding yourself will help you do more in the long run.
    Our discussion touches on:
    • Why we don’t have to suffer to succeed.
    • Creating a doable to-do list (and why that’s important)
    • Coming up with ways to reward yourself
    • The value of taking a break

  • Episode 1: Done Is Better Than Perfect
    Our first episode! Shannon and Janine talk about a basic tenet of embracing good enough: the idea that done is better than perfect.
    We talk about how getting started and finishing something--even if the result is less than perfect--is so much better than waiting for perfect to come along.
    Included in the conversation:
    • How perfectionism can keep you from getting started on a project.
    • How being willing to make mistakes makes getting to good enough possible.
    • Strategies for letting go of perfectionism and easing into good enough
