· The common feelings that arise in the lead up to an important anniversary

· The common reactions to these feelings that don’t really help

Too often when we are navigating the emotional rollercoaster, or a challenging period of time in life we can feel misunderstood and isolated. I can recall this feeling in my own journey! That somehow my experience was invisible to others, that no one really understood.

Slowly I have realised that being understood starts with understanding others.

Which has had me thinking, can we understand others in a better way? Can we communicate in a better way so our feelings become a shared experience?

So this podcast is dedicated to both communication AND understanding others and their communication style.

In this podcast you will learn:

· Key steps to understand others and to feel understood

· How being understood starts with you

· The four basic communication and behaviour styles according to DISC profiling

· How to recognise each type and learn to speak their language so open communication is facilitated

This podcast shares simplified information based on DISC profiling. More information about DISC can be found from multiple online sources.

I don’t have the strength to carry on. A statement I have heard from women who feel depleted, drained or lacking in motivation as they navigate a challenging period of time in their lives.

I’m sick of hearing ‘you’re so strong’ when I actually feel like I’m hanging on by a thread. I’m not strong, I am surviving, they don’t even understand. Another expression I hear from women who are navigating. Everything on the outside looks brave, but you’re struggling to find what your strengths actually are, let alone how to use them.

Ladies if this sounds like you, this podcast is for you. You have your own unique strengths and it’s time to find them.

In this podcast you will learn:

· What defines strength in women

· 3 different ways of finding what your strengths are when your own inner dialogue has been telling you you’re hopeless

· How strengths can sometimes be weaknesses if not harnessed or used in the right environment

· Key questions to ask yourself when discovering your unique strengths

· Things to consider to help you use your strengths

Your strengths will have your back when you least expect it. Your strengths are unique and can be completely invisible to you. It’s about time to seek them out.
