Is Growth Transactional? Can we be both our new selves and old selves at the same time? What are we unwilling to let go of? What does committing to your life look like? What parts of your story are you resistant to shed? We dive into all these questions in this episode as we explore what personal growth really looks like, and how things like reference points and personal identities can serve a purpose, but ultimately can hinder us as well.

Connection, Contribution and Sustainability are all on the menu for today's episode. Chef Ned Bell joins us and shares his own Three Big Things (as outlined below). As an acclaimed Executive Chef, Restauranteur, TV personality, and Sustainability expert, Chef Ned Bell takes us on a fascinating journey thru some necessary discussions about life, the restaurant business, and Ocean sustainability (including some enlightening bits about "Wild" vs "Farmed").

Ned's Three Big Things:

1) Don't Change Too Much: It doesn't take a monumental shift to have a BIG impact

2) 52 and 12 rule: Once a week try preparing something sustainable, Ocean Wise. Once a month, try preparing something new, something you've never tried before

3) Aim for a nutrient-rich plant based diet, with sustainable protein (Fish, Meat etc) as a garnish, NOT the majority of the plate.

You can learn more about all the wonderful things Ned has going in here:

Imposter!! Calling out the fraud is a helpful tool. Thankfully the only imposter ends up being the part of us that bathes in self-doubt, and also likes to convince ourselves we aren't worthy of the heights when we find ourselves there. In today's episode we look at Imposter Syndrome: what it is, what the types are, and what we can do about it. Main character energy, Subliminal Man, and talent resumes all come to visit, so come join us as we try to derail this self judgment cycle.
