  • Ep #83: Grown-up belief

    Somewhere along the line, many of us started thinking that belief was for kids. Especially in December, there's a lot of messaging that belief is for children. Maybe it's the power of Christmas movies, but in this week's podcast, I explore the power of belief for grown ups. We believe a number of myths about belief and it's time for us to let them go so we can embrace the power of belief, as the adults we are.

  • Ep #82: Feeling light (even when you're carrying a lot)

    The winter holidays are all about light -- which makes sense in the darkness of winter. We all want more light -- more joy, more lightness in our spirits, but sometimes it can be very challenging, especially at the holidays. When we're going through something heavy, the holidays can feel especially hard, and we can feel more alone. In this episode, I share ways to welcome in lightness, even when you're carrying something heavy. It's useful at the holidays and all year round.

  • Ep #81: Self-tolerance

    In this episode, I focus on increasing our tolerance for being human -- humans who make mistakes, are imperfect, and sometimes feel awful.

    We think about tolerance as a societal value, something that helps us live peaceably in our diverse world. But self-tolerance is an important value too, one that helps us embrace our own inner diversity, our own humanity.

    In this episode I address:

    ⭐ What is self-tolerance and how can it help?

    ⭐ How does self-tolerance help us and the larger world?

    ⭐ What are strategies for increasing our tolerance for our own imperfections?

    ⭐ How can I use humor to lighten the experience of being human?

  • Ep #80: How to be more or less consistent

    We often crave greater consistency. We want to be the kind of people who exercise regularly, meditate, who consistently make good choices. But invariably, we are consistent in some ways and entirely inconsistent in others. It's time to rethink consistently -- because the truth is, sometimes we want to be less consistent. Sometimes we wish we weren't so consistently hard on ourselves, so regularly procrastinating, and so on.

    In this episode:

    🎯 How consistency can be a trap

    🎯 Why sometimes it's better to be less consistent

    🎯 The feelings that keep us showing up

    🎯 Why commitment is a stronger force than consistency

    If you've ever been frustrated that you can't maintain a more consistent habit, this is the episode for you.

  • Ep #79: Connection

    So many of us feel disconnected -- from each other, ourselves, nature, a sense of something bigger. The good news is that we have what we need to re-connect. Through every day thoughts, feelings, and actions, we can choose what we want to connect to and create that connection. If you want greater connection this holiday season and into the coming year, this is the episode for you!

  • Ep #78: Generous thinking

    Are you a generous person? Generosity is a readiness to give more than is expected or required and often we think about it in terms of gifts of money or time. But it's even more powerful to tap into the power of generosity in our thinking. In this episode:

    🌱 Why generosity isn't just about gifts of money & time

    🌱 How thinking generously can increase our feelings of "enoughness"

    🌱 How thinking generously about ourselves increases our well-being without asking us to ignore our feelings

    🌱 Why spending half a graduate seminar talking about an author's acknowledgement page might not be the best use of your time (lol but also, it happened!)

  • Ep #77: Change your perspective with new glasses

    Often when we try to change our perspective about a situation, we try to turn a negative into a positive -- in effect, we try to look through rose-colored glasses, to "have a better attitude."

    So much more is available to us than just "crabby mood" or "sunshine." We can put down the rose-colored glasses and try on some others -- Glasses of compassion, love, and kindness, to name just three. This is how we train ourselves to experience the world differently -- by looking at it through new glasses. In this episode:

    👓 Two clarifying questions to ask yourself

    👓 The difference between glasses of compassion and glasses of kindness

    👓 How glasses of love help us to see ourselves in ways that often aren't accessible

  • Ep #76: Create change with unfamiliar feelings

    Change can be hard -- in part because we're used to our current life. The feelings that create and sustain our current life feel like home. To foster change -- a new job, new independence, new partnership, new self concept -- we need to embrace unfamiliar feelings. In this episode, I give an example from my own life and that of my clients and how we realized that our scrappiness and hustle was functional and familiar -- until it wasn't. Then we had to turn up the volume on unfamiliar feelings.

  • Ep #75: Trust yourself

    When we think about trust, we often think about trusting other people. In this episode, I focus on the importance of trusting ourselves and how to build that trust.

    We chip away at our self trust every time we override what we really want -- when we need rest but make ourselves keep going, when we say yes to things we really don't want to do, when we speak to ourselves unkindly.

    The good news is that trust is built through small, every day actions. In this episode I show you how.
