Retrain your Brain for success

You don't plant a seed and yell at it to grow, yet we seem to do this to ourselves. This podcast is slightly different - it's still got tips for being patient, but it's a personal reflection on my (in)ability to be patient at times and how I work at it.

I can't believe it's the end of another series! So here's a thought to keep you on track until the next. 
We're all busy people and it's so easy to lash out when someone lets us down...often because we're also taking it personally. This podcast offers a couple of exercises to ease that frustration and move forward in your journey, rather than letting anger (that someone else has 'given' you)  hold you back 

As we used technology to connect rather than compare, and perhaps because we went out less, the anxiety of FOMO seems to have eased. This podcast looks at what it is and why it affects us.

People pleasing is not going to help you in the long run,and neither does it actually empowering the person asking (if they think you'll just get them out of it). The most successful people say 'no' all the time. This podcast gives you ways to show support while still giving others ownership AND protecting your time and energy.
