Melissa and JJ talk about how we compare ourselves not just to other people and outside situations, but we also compare and contrast against a fantasy version of us that we have created. How does that help or hurt us?

JJ and Melissa have a great conversation about a book project that threatened to de-rail growth and other projects they were co-creating in The Self Awareness Journey.

JJ and Melissa talk about all of the habits we humans use without even realizing we are. Habits are both helpful and harmful, depending on what personal goals exist. How do we get to a place of being more aware of our habits and how we can alter them to suit us. We aren't actually in the 'habit' of taking periodic habit inventories, perhaps we should start!

JJ and Melissa discuss how we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to have control over outcomes we can't actually control, due to our deep sense of responsibility or obligation. It's helpful to understand our personal drivers that make us feel this trigger, and recognize how it then that causes us stress.

JJ and Melissa talk about the difference between abundance and scarcity in their lives, and how their thinking patterns bring them more of what they want.
