The Be Ruthless Show

I had a bit of a meltdown yesterday, and I’m so grateful. It reminded me of so many good things that come from meltdowns.

March is Self Harm Awareness Month and keeping things bottled up inside and getting too busy with life is a form of self harm.

Listen now as part of your self care ❤️

“If you really do that, I’ll stop talking to you.”

“I can’t believe you’re bringing this up with everything I’m going through.”

And the phrase that got me thinking about this episode: “Your therapist is steering you in the wrong direction.”

Emotional blackmail comes in many shapes and sizes, but whatever shape and size that is….. It’s Unhealthy!

On todays episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss different types of emotional blackmail as well as how to use this information as your armor.

As we head into March, which is Self Harm Awareness Month, pay attention to your emotional well being. Self harm isn’t just physical!

JUST before I recorded this episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I received a call I get way too often. “My therapist isn’t responding,” or “My therapist told me to…” It really infuriates me on YOUR behalf. 

These people work for YOU so it’s critical to evaluate whether or not they’re meeting your needs. 

After this mini rant, I discuss National Eating Disorder Awareness Week and why it matters.

What image comes to mind when you hear The W word? Until I lost Jim, I pictured someone older…. much older.

Widows are one of the faster growing groups in the world. As well as one of

the least talked about groups.

On todays episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss my top 3 reasons that being a widow is more crushing than you’ll ever imagine!

I hope this episode raises awareness and helps you understand what we widows go through… each and every day.

When is the last time you experienced peer pressure? Or witnessed peer pressure? 

I see it all the time. With people of all ages and in all stages of life. Maybe the word pressure is misleading. People are more likely nudged. Encouraged. Tempted. 

On todays episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I share tips you can use when dealing with peer pressure. These are tips I use both personally and with my clients… of all ages!

 Most people hear ADHD and think of a rowdy child. But ADHD, like anything else, looks different for everyone.

Todays guest on The Be Ruthless Show, Jill Avey, shares her story of a later in life ADHD diagnosis and the relief that came with it!

Jill Avey helps senior leaders develop so they can lead teams most effectively and grow to their full potential. She does this by supporting clients to cultivate their strengths, empower their teams, and deliver better business outcomes as a result. 

“How are you?” is a widely used conversation starter. What no one mentions is that hearing this can be stressful for many.

After losing Jim, I’d think “How do you think I am?” while muttering some other, more polite response.

I know everyone asking means well. 1000%! I just want you to be aware that it honestly can be a difficult question.

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss this as well as things to say instead.
