Relationships, break ups, and ex’s can teach you so much about yourself. Close relationships are like a mirror and if you are haling and evolving you know that each break up leads to a break through. 

On this episode I am joined by Lama from the infamous Views Of An Ex Podcast. Therapy can come in many forms, even in the form of listening in to someones story about an ex relationship that went south and changed their life forever. We get to know the host behind Views Of An EX and discuss the lessons learned from his show. 

We also discuss:

OUR DISCUSSION AIMS TO EXPLORE THE MULTIFACETED ASPECTS OF SELF-WORTH AND SELF-ESTEEM OUTSIDE THE CONTEXT OF ONE'S CAREER. WE WILL DELVE INTO WHO WE ARE OUTSIDE OF WHAT WE DO. HOW CAN WE ENSURE THAT WE ARE HOLISTIC INDIVIDUALS WHO LOVE OURSELVES AND OTHERS REGARDLESS OF OUR PRODUCTIVITY AND JOB TITLES? WHAT PRACTICES CAN HELP US GROW IN OTHER AREAS OUTSIDE THE WORKSPACE, AND HOW CAN WE REMAIN HAPPY AND PROUD OF OURSELVES EVEN IN SEASONS WHERE WE ARE NOT OUTWARDLY "WINNING"?
