LOST IN THE LABELS

Yesterday I was having a conversation with Alan Stein. Alan is an old friend of mine and a best-selling author, podcaster, speaker and coach. We got onto the topic of elevating even when it would be easy to get complacent. Alan is also a single father and mentioned that it’s a lot like finding love again after going through a heart break. He said if you don’t take the risk and put yourself out there with vulnerability, you’ll never know how much you can succeed outside your comfort zone.

This got me thinking about those of you who have found your business or career flatlined through Covid19, reeling from the loss of almost a year worth of revenue or pay due to the world being limited and closed. Are you suffering from a #businessbrokenheart feeling like you’ll never recover from this incredible loss? If so, this episode is for you.

Last summer I had an interaction with a young man in the oil and gas industry where he told me that I have a glass ceiling on my forehead. The pure shock of what he had said made everyone sitting at the table feel uncomfortable. The conversation started with regards to the tag #dramatic and had I let his tasteless comment land on me, I would have risked showing up as #dramatic as I navigated the rest of the conversation.

Today’s episode is about holding onto the authority that you possess over the tags that you wear and the tags that you don’t want to wear.

Apparently I’m “dramatic”!

Today’s episode is another silly one that shines a light on a label that is thrown around and doesn’t typically feel great. Dramatic is often a tag that is give to you when someone wants to dismiss the way you feel or the problem that you are trying to bring awareness to.

However, as I was reading the definitions of dramatic, I suddenly had a change of heart surrounding my want to wear this label. Listen for more on this.

Have you ever been terrified to be an outsider but you also have ZERO desire to “fit-in”?

Today’s episode will inspire you to wear the tag “outsider” proudly as you see the world from a unique and dynamic perspective. I share a story about an incident in grade school where the “popular” girls decided that only a certain and select few of us would be invited into their “popular” group as we went into high school the following year. The twist in the story made me an outsider in both the selected group and the unselected group.

I’ve admitted to you all that I’m a “night-owl”. I’m thrilled if my workday begins at 9:00pm and doesn’t end until 2:30/3:00am. However, as I’m wrapping up today’s episode recording I can’t help but think about my habit of hitting the snooze button. I actually plan my morning with the latitude to hit snooze as many times as possible. This means that if I need to wake up at 7, I will schedule my alarm to go off at 5:30am and I will hit snooze every 8 minutes until 6:45, giving myself just 15 minutes to get ready for my day. Today’s episode is meant to be silly and lighthearted. Enjoy!

Yesterday you heard a message about the divorce rate during Covid and the conflict that has ignited in marriages across the United States and probably across the globe. That message made me reflect on my own divorce and the scary decision to leave my first marriage. I remember feeling like there wasn’t a possibility that we could heal and repair the brokenness that we had handed each other in our short marriage. I do my best to talk constructively about my former spouse and the thing I know for sure about our marriage is that we were both wearing the tag “scorekeeper”.

We were so busy fighting about fighting and keeping track of each other’s offenses that we didn’t have time to get in the game and give our relationship a fair chance. Some people use the phrase, “we’re like oil and water”, referring to two substances that can’t mix together. Well, he and I were more like, “fire and gasoline”. We knew how to ignite each other in a way that I had never experienced before. Unfortunately, being a “scorekeeper” doesn’t leave you much latitude to recognize your contribution to the problems in the relationship. If you’re wearing the tag “scorekeeper”, I hope this episode resonates in your heart and allows you to look into your own self-awareness.

According to the NY Post, the divorce rate during Covid from January to June was 34% higher than during the same time in 2019. Unfortunately, it seems that friendships all around me are breaking down and choosing to part ways. Unemployment, illness, death of loved ones, financial stress, homeschooling, working from home and overall distress about the pandemic has contributed to a lot of complex conflict for husbands and wives. The trend with most couples that are teetering on the edge of divorce is that they know what they want, most of them wanting happiness. However, when I ask them what the first step is, I’m usually met with the answer, “I don’t know”. My mentor, Ed Beard, always responds to this question, “Well, who knows if you don’t”. Today’s episode will shine a light on relationship breakdown and how to decide whether to fight for what you have or walk away and start anew.

I’ve noticed that men really connect to the Tear Out the Tags message and I’ve been getting some amazing feedback recently. Not only are the men in my audience starting to attach a word to their tags, but they also have the most creative and insightful ways of looking at them.

Tony Slabaugh wears the tag “home”, when he returns from time  on the road to his beautiful bride.

Shawn Washburn wears the tag “caffeinated”, “bacon-lover” and “creative” as he exchanges emails with me about developing a content calendar.

And my friend, who wishes to remain anonymous, wears the tag “creative writer” as I share his beautiful writing with you in Saturdays episode.

If you are a man who is enjoying this content, please drop me a message and introduce yourself. I don’t for one minute want you to feel like this is a female empowerment company. This is a human and relationship empowerment company.

I’ve been spending some more time on the new social media app called Clubhouse and I’ve noticed something that stands out in the personalities on the app. There are quite a few people who are boasting about their success, how much money they make, how much status they have and how easy it is for them to achieve above the rest of us. Then there are ACTUALLY incredibly successful people who have access in ways that many of us can only dream of and they are typically modest about their achievements. I would call these two tags “cocky” and “humble”.

My entire life I thought that those two tags had to be worn separately. That one person couldn’t be wearing both tags at the same time, during the same season. However, as I’ve spent time in different rooms, I’ve realized something interesting. Some of the people that I’ve observed are showing up as “cocky” in rooms that they feel they have social status, with people that they believe they are above in achievement and clout. Then, those same people show up in rooms where it’s obvious that they are a small fish in a big pond. Suddenly they appear “humble” as they shrink to fit the role, they believe they are allowed to play in the room. Today’s episode will shine a light on these tags and get you thinking about which one you want to wear, if not both.

Today’s episode is quite unique. You’ll hear a creative writing piece written by a man who has unbelievable talent. He wears tags like the rest of us do, only when he let’s this unique passion show it’s breathtaking. This story is heart wrenching, as you listen to what it might feel like to be discarded, tossed aside with no value.

Have you ever felt dismissed, discarded, rejected, unloved?

Walk with Bri as she realizes something more terrifying then losing her love. Enjoy!
