Human connection and being seen and appreciated are at the heart of all meaningful relationships. It’s a basic human need to be acknowledge and validated.  If this happens for you when you are young it will help you create a strong self-image and healthy self-esteem, and when it doesn’t, it can cause you to feel insecure, unsure of yourself, and not be able to claim your personal power.  In today’s episode of Your Personal Power Pod, we talk about the power of true connection, and what it means for people to really understand each other. We look at how to genuinely see others, why it matters, and what happens when you fail do this.

Human beings usually crave connection with each other. Whether it’s with family, friends, colleagues, or even with yourself, the need to belong and be understood is universal. However, sometimes you intentionally or unintentionally create barriers that keep others out, and other times you make the effort to reach out and connect. In today’s episode of Your Personal Power Pod, we look at the walls and bridges you might be building in your relationships, and how those choices are affecting the way your life unfolds.

When you feel worthy you have an internal sense of being valuable, good enough and deserving of love and belonging from yourself and others.  When you feel worthy you know you’re a good person, respect yourself and expect respect from others. When you don’t feel worthy, you feel like you don't deserve respect, attention, or love, and that you have to constantly do things to earn it.  In today’s episode of Your Personal Power Pod we look at the importance of knowing you are worthy.

There are many powerful forces that shape your life and how it unfolds, and two of those are motivation and validation. Motivation is the driving force behind human behavior that causes you to act in ways that help you achieve your goals. It’s the process that starts, guides, and keeps you doing goal-oriented behaviors.  Validation is the process of acknowledging and accepting your own or someone else’s thoughts, feelings, behaviors, accomplishments, and identity. When you combine motivation and validation, you will be unstoppable. In today’s episode of Your Personal Power Pod we look at how your motivation and validation are impacting your life.

These days we are all busy, with things constantly coming at us from a variety of places, and feeling stressed is a normal response when you have too much going on.  However, when you start struggling to cope, are flooded by emotions, become short tempered and angry, and have trouble functioning, you are probably overwhelmed. We looked at this topic a couple of years ago, but because so many of our listeners have suggested we revisit this topic, we thought that today we would do a sequel to Episode 49.  In today’s episode of Your Personal Power Pod, we look at what it means to be overwhelmed, how it can affect your life, and how to deal with it.

English is an interesting language.  We have many words that sound the same, and some are even spelled the same, yet they mean totally different things.  In order to be able to effectively interact verbally and in writing, it’s important to understand words and the power they have to communicate feelings and thoughts.  When you can do this well, people will always understand and be receptive to what you’re saying, and when you don’t, there can be confusion and pushback.  In today’s episode of Your Personal Power Pod we talk about the power of words.
