September 21, 2023 25. Learning to Trust Yourself
Do you have an interal mean girl? Is there negative chatter in your mind when things don't go your way?
When there is something you want to do- and you are being mean to yourself, all the energy and effort gets sucked up by the criticism, blame, shame, or guilt– rather then dealing with the issue.

In this episode you'll learn to identify and shut down your inner bully so you can handle trying new things, making decisions and putting yourself out there.
You will hear how to build trust in yourself so you can follow through with what you want to do or say because you have your own back.

Avoiding discomfort completely simply isn't possible. Yet, so many people avoid conversations, decisions or taking action because doing something differently means experiencing some new or unknown discomfort. What is often discounted or forgotten completely is the discomfort already being experienced from wanting a change.

Listen to this episode to learn how you can choose to experience the uncomfortable feelings now and later by staying stuck or choosing discomfort on purpose now with the possibility of feeling better later.

July 27, 2023 18. Understanding Passive Aggressive Behaviors
When people display passive aggressive behaviors it’s often because it’s been unacceptable to express certain kinds of feelings- like anger, resentment, frustration. They may have had a parent or adult who didn’t hear their needs or their needs didn’t count.

Passive aggression is a learned pattern of being unassertive as a coping strategy for not being able to express your own feelings. As females somewhere along the line you likely learned girls should be accommodating, non confrontational, take care of others and don’t hurt their feelings... so emotions get stuffed down and ignored... until they can't be ignored any longer.
