In this thought-provoking episode of The Grit Show, we delve into the transformative practice of holding space, an essential skill in today's fast-paced world. Tune in as we explore the transformative power of sitting with someone's emotions without rushing to change their emotional state or “fix” their troubles. It's the importance of creating a safe and supportive environment where emotions can be explored and understood without judgment.

We'll reflect on childhood friendships, the challenges of holding space for people we interact with the most (often family members), and the impact of societal pressures on emotional well-being. As we navigate through personal experiences and share insights, you'll gain valuable tools and strategies to strengthen your relationships and boost your own emotional resilience. Join us on this powerful journey of growth and discover how holding space for others can ultimately lead to personal transformation. Get ready to unlock the true power of authentic support on this episode of The Grit Show.

***Stay tuned for upcoming conversations on burnout, the differences between coaching and therapy, and the importance of adult friendships.***

Shawna Rodrigues left her award-winning career in the public sector in 2019 and after launching The Grit Show, soon learned the abysmal fact that women hosted only 27% of podcasts. This led to the founding of the Authentic Connections Podcast Network intent on raising that number by 10% in five years- 37 by 27. Because really, shouldn’t it be closer to 50%? She now focuses on helping purpose driven solopreneurs find their ideal clients through podcasting. She believes that the first step is guesting on podcasts - check out her tip sheet and once you've built your business and are ready for the full-service support for podcasting production and mentoring, she'll help you launch the podcast you were meant for. She still finds a little time for her pursuits as a best-selling author and shares the hosting of Author Express, a podcast that features the voice behind the pages of your favorite book.
