Taylor Swift is TIME Magazine's person of the year and I (obviously) have a lot of thoughts! I discuss the lessons I think we can learn from Taylor in her impressive career and how I (and she) thinks she is having a breakthrough moment in being able to realize what is important and not worry about what others think of her. This is a pretty vulnerable podcast for me where I share my recent struggles as someone who has a podcast, a moderately successful instagram, business which comes with a lot of feedback. I discuss how I have been working through a next level of my people pleasing and how I have been managing being someone who is sensitive but also chronically online and my tips for you. This leads me to an article in the Wall Street Journal that came out about Dave Hollis and how in many ways his hyperfocus on the critics led to his untimely death and some of the lessons I think we can learn from him. In the last 10 minutes of the episode, I share my best tips and insight into how you can work through people pleasing if you are someone that struggles with it, including some homework so you can practice. I hope this episode was helpful and as always I would love to hear your thoughts! Message or tag me on social media @therapyforwomen
