Welcome to my Birthday episode!I turned 32 on April 29, and on this slow and mellow pandemic birthday, I did a bit of reflecting about the lesson's I've learned on this journey called life.

"I haven't taken a sick day in 5 years," says Joe, every time someone else takes a day off. "Judy is such a hard worker- she hasn't taken a day off in the 10 years I've worked here."We all know the Joe's and Judy's of the world. Heck, maybe some of us fall into these very same patterns. And if we don't, maybe we're right there applauding them for their "work ethic", their "perseverance", their "dedication to the job". Guilty? Me too.What's more, when we end up taking our necessary s...

Are you hiding your true self behind a facade? Scared to let yourself be seen for who you are, to showcase your gifts, or to speak. up for what you care about?Standing out can be scary- especially when we're standing out for who we really are: for what means the most to us, what we're most passionate about...for what we really care about. It's an incredibly vulnerable place, because when we attract that attention, we open ourselves to a more personal type of rejection. ...Sometimes, it f...

Do you spend a hell of a lot of time trying to be good at the things you suck at?Trust me, I’ve been there. I lived in that space for most of my life- trying to be the person who could organize papers, the person who was detail oriented, the person who knew where everything is. I tried to fake it, and I felt inadequate and ashamed every day. Frankly, it didn’t get me very far: it just spiralled me further and further into shame, and left me drifting further and further from where I was m...

Have you ever been stuck on the brink of making a decision?Perhaps you don’t know where to start. Perhaps you’re scared of what will happen if you do.Perhaps you’re scared of judgement: from your family, from your friends, from your colleagues.Perhaps you’re scared of failure, of the unknown, or of what happens if you make the wrong choice?Here’s the thing, friends: when we sit in indecision, we’re choosing inaction. And when we choose inaction, the problem— the anxiety behind the indecision,...

Has the complacency that has kept you going through the pandemic become a bad habit? Has the acceptance that got you through the early days started to make you feel a little numb? Bored? Maybe just... blah??Well, you're definitely not alone. We've settled into this pandemic bubble, one where we don't think forward beyond that shirt we keep at our desk for that impromptu zoom call. Our need to be present, to take it one day at a time, was necessary-- hell, it was survival! It kept go...

You're on road to developing more confidence, owning what you really want, and creating a life that you love.And yet, somehow, you often feel like your needs just aren't being met. Like you're not being seen or heard. Like you're biting off more than you can chew while swimming around dazed and confused. And what's more: nobody seems to be helping you out!Let's talk about that important missing piece of the puzzle: self-advocacy!This empowering skill is something a lot of us a) don't know how...

"I just don't have the confidence to do that..."We've all been there before: wanting to do something, but feeling so fearful and so completely self-doubting that we don't think it possible.We hope that one day we just might have the confidence to go after our dreams, but until then, we keep ourselves small (after all, it's safer that way). We look at others, knocking off their accomplishments one after another, and either think that they're much more talented than we are, or simply that they ...
