Self-Help Junkie

If you want 9 years experience from a young couple, this is the episode for you! I'm joined by my good friend Imani and John to discuss Brene Brown's Gift of Imperfection. When you think of romance, you don't often think of shame being an obstacle for breakups but it is often the root of problems. Peel back all the layers of the onion and get ready to laugh and cry. 

This week, I'm alone in a room talk about a book that started me on my self-help journey, The 5 Languages of Love by Gary Chapman. While the book is not without its problems, I'm surprised that guests weren't clambering to discuss this book but it also gave me the opportunity to indulge and share my stories. If you've heard about the 5 Languages, I'd highly recommend you take a deeper dive to see beyond the 5 labels.

This week, I'm talking to Yatin Mistry, a LGBT Mindset Coach about the grandfather to self-help books, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey. The book centers around learning independence before being able to enter a healthy interdependent relationship. No matter where you are on the journey of life, this is a book to return to when you are feeling out of balance. Join us as we discuss our mistakes turned growth opportunities.

This week, I'm talking to Brett Bailey, a Men's Coach about the popular A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle. Consciousness may sound hippy-dippy but it is much more grounded than you think. It has real-life effects on your well-being and your relationships. Join us as we discuss our continuous journey and battle it out as my logical brain wraps around such a flighty concept.

Life didn't give us a guide, so we're piecing it together one self-help book at a time. Join me, Erika Ng, a communication coach and less of a mess than last year.
