Today's guests are former students, friends of mine, and all around impressive women who have different outer life paths but share much in common in their inner worlds.

They both found themselves getting crushed under the weight of expectations: from how they look to who they are, and knew it was time to make a change.

This is the story, in their own words, of their journey to establishing self trust, self acceptance, a life on their own terms.

Africa Brooke is a globally recognised mindset coach, business consultant, podcaster, and speaker who specialises in helping people overcome what is commonly known as self-sabotage. Her work takes a close look at the complexity and messiness that is the human experience, and she makes an argument for why we need to make room for discomfort. You can find her musing on the mic via her podcast ‘Beyond the Self with Africa Brooke’, or you can catch her pouring loose leaf tea while tackling necessary themes over on Instagram.

In this conversation, Africa walks us through her perspectives that inspired her widely read + shared open letter: ‘Why I’m Leaving the Cult of Wokeness’.

We talk about cancel culture, self censorship, chronic distrust of our own opinion, dehumanization, mob mentality, and the parallels between self sabotage and what Africa refers to as ‘collective self sabotage’.

The vicious all-or-nothing cycles. I know you know them:

We are aalllll in and go HARD. And then something happens, and its not part of the perfect plan. So we bail.

We do this with food (#dietstartsmonday anyone?), in our careers, in our passions and hobbies, in relationships, in self care, and so much more.

If we can’t do it perfectly, we’re not doing it at all.

This episode is a walk through of what this mindset ACTUALLY is, and 3 steps to help you release the grip of these extreme pendulum swings and relentless behavior loops-- including an ironic twist.

We all have them or know them: that one person who is impossible to maintain an easy, feel-good relationship with. No matter what we do, we are on the receiving end of judgement, commentary, passive aggressiveness, or any other behavior we deem frustrating, hurtful, or annoying. We label them toxic and struggle to find our way through it all.

What makes these relationships so challenging?

How do we make them better?

Should we make them better?

This is the second of a THREE PART series that walks you through these difficult relationships.

Part 2: We explore the give and take dynamics from both sides.
