    If you've been in the creative or entrepreneurial space for any bit of time you know failure comes with the job.

  • 36: Do you know what REAL self-care is?

    What exactly is self-care? We hear about it constantly and although it sounds great - do we really know how to define it? And if we're not careful - self-care can get so oversimplified, that it becomes destructive. But it's not all doom and gloom, Addi and I discuss how like everything - there are pros and cons. Understanding the true intention is so important so we can really use it to it's full advantage. Freebie: http://bit.ly/oddreformfreebie Flodesk: https://flodesk.com/c/oddreform

  • 35: Is inspiration random? Is doubt bad?

    Every person has experienced the creative cycle. I'll explain. Have you felt inspired? Questioned something? Tried something new? Have you failed? Felt doubt? Practiced something? Have you succeeded? Felt excitement? Exhaustion? Complacency?

    What's crazy is every person's answer is YES. So my last question is this: if we ALL have inevitable felt those feelings before, why do we avoid them and treat them as taboo?

    Well, I'm going to answer that and give you my own example of experiencing ALL of these!

  • 34: Setting the tone instead of being a mirror.
    People sometimes treat us not the exact way we want to be treated, whether it's bc their personality rubs us the wrong way, or they're in a bad mood, or maybe they're frustrated and flat out rude. We then have a choice, stoop to their level and mirror how they treat us. Or set the tone and respond in kindness in spite of how they treat us. Today's episode is all about this, Addi and I are discuss what exactly mirroring is, the different types of mirroring, why we do it, and tips on how to prevent doing it.

  • 33: How to be CONFIDENT (and promote yourself)

    Confidently promoting yourself or your work can be terrifying. Heck, just being confident can be terrifying. But it's essential to not just your brand, but also your mental health and who you are as a person. Confidence has been distilled down to "self-love" and although that's a great catchphrase, self-love and/or confidence is not the goal. It's a result. You'll have to listen to the episode to find out why. Freebie: http://bit.ly/oddreformfreebie Flodesk: https://flodesk.com/c/oddreform

  • 32: Why you NEED a finish date for your goals

    Goal planning is a huge part of turning your creativity from a feeling into a result. It's absolutely necessary if you don't want to just leave things to chance. That sort of gamble is not one worth taking.

    Today, Addi and I discuss goal-setting in a way that's a little different. We parallel it to something that may surprise you - better yet, convince you that you CAN make your goals, dreams, + visions a reality!

  • 31: The 5 tips to prevent "creative blocks"

    Creative blocks are not the world's way of pranking you. They don't exist to crush your self-esteem and waste your time. Creative blocks are a signal letting us know we need something - wether that's a break, a clearer direction, refined inspiration, or a combination. You definitely want to hit play so you can learn to move past - better yet PREVENT "creative blocks".

  • 30: Fill your New Year with diligence, planning + intuition
    Relying on luck and chance to propel you to success is probably the biggest mistake entrepreneurs can make. Yet its a lie that a lot believe. We see the few exceptions that have made it by chance and assume that's the default. Well that seems too stressful to me. I'd rather believe that with a good enough idea, enough diligence, planning and intuition we can make dreams a reality. And that's exactly what we'll be talking about on todays episode of the odd reform podcast. Addi and I chat about the good, the bad and some of the biggest lessons I've learned over the years that help me better plan for the future. PLUS I'll let you in on an upcoming shift for the Odd Reform Podcast that benefits both you and me!

  • 29: What I did right AND wrong during 2020

    One of the biggest lessons I learned recently is taking the time to reflect on the past. There is something powerful about taking time to really soak in your accomplishments, learn from the mistakes and use that to your advantage for next year.

    So today Addi and I are looking back at 2020 and seeing where we went wrong, where we went right and we'll see what I did differently this year that made a HUGE difference.

  • 28: The power in being a victor, not a victim with Kazi Jay

    One of the things that comes with being human is we face challenges, discomfort, and sometimes absolutely unfair circumstances. The world tells us to play the victim which honestly makes sense. But today, Kassie Johnson, walks us through how all the odds were against her, and why she CHOSE to be a victor not a victim. IF you think about the people who inspire you, who you aspire to be, they're not victims OF their situation - they're victors over their situation. Kassie let's us in on her mind set, how she got there, and her incredible journey of becoming an amazingly talented musician, singer, writer and producer. She tells us why we should lean into discomfort, how opportunities arise in acts of obedience, search your doubts and so many other valuable lessons she has learned throughout her life experiences. You gotta keep listening.
