The Eight Pillars Podcast

I'm back with another episode on my takeaways from the most recent audio book I listened to, The Courage to Be Disliked (Ichiro Kishimi, Fumitake Koga). we discuss how to learn to separate your tasks from others as a way to decrease the stress in your life by taking on problems that are not yours to take on. we also discuss how to not use your own misfortune as a way to feel special so that you can stop looking for all the ways your life is unfortunate and begin seeing how fortunate you really are! these are just a few of the topics we discuss among a few others. this has been my most favorite self-help book so far, so I hope you all go read it after listening to this episode. enjoy xxx

this week we discuss my tips for anyone fresh out of a breakup or even just in a long single period in your life where you might keep having the same bad experience with guys. we discuss how to get crystal clear on what you WILL and WILL NOT accept in a future relationship. we also discuss how to build your confidence by creating an entire resume of what YOU bring to the table. all of these tips have helped me become so confident in what I bring to the table and not willing to settle for anything less than what I know I deserve based on the work that I do for myself. enjoy xxx

this episode we discuss eliminating the negativity bias that we all have even without realizing it. we talk about little ways you can flip your perspective each day to begin finding more of the blessings you have in your life rather than all the possible complaints. we all have negativity bias as a way to survive and a lot of time self-soothe, but it isn't the most enjoyable, to say the least. we discuss the different ways to control this bias and flip it so you can spend more time in the positive. enjoy xxx

I recently listened to the FIRST CHAPTER of "Be Where Your Feet Are" by Scott M. O'Neil. yes, I made an entire episode on the first chapter. that is how much amazing new information I learned from this book. I give you a nice summary of what I took from this book, how I apply it to my life, and how I think you should. we discuss being present and sticking to the morals and values that you set for yourself in your leadership constitution. enjoy xxx

this week we discuss the dread that comes with doing something you know you need to do but don't want to, and the dread that comes with not doing what you need to do but having it in the back of your mind that you should have. I love this idea of "dread sprints" from Brooke Castillo's, The Life Coach Podcast. I love this concept and want to put my own spin on it so that not only can we be more motivated to be productive and move toward our goals, BUT we can work on changing the view we have on things that might now be dreadful to us, to eventually more enjoyable. enjoy xxx

in this episode, we discuss how to focus on the little details about each of your goals so that you can more effortlessly narrow in on how to get there. we talk about the importance of not obsessing over when something will happen in your life and how to focus more on your consistency in what you do in the present moment to get there. we also discuss how to release control from the timing of when your goals will manifest in your life since that is not something you can control.  enjoy xxx

in this episode, we discuss habit menus and how I would create them so that you can create a routine that works for you while also making it fun. I saw this idea from a girl on TikTok (Valerie Ribon) and I loved it, so I wanted to share some helpful tips for creating your own.
