Right Enough to be Wrong
November 16, 2022 07:00 - 15 minutes - 10.7 MBRight Enough to be Wrong What does it feel like to be wrong? Well, in all honesty, it actually feels a lot like being right. We don't feel wrong until we RECOGNIZE we are wrong... and that comes with some heaviness - and follows with some predictive actions too. Today, we look at where this fear of being wrong comes from, why we often insist that we are right, and how we handle it when others don't agree with us.

Why is it that some people who are quite intelligent, cannot seem to get organized and get things done? Why is it that some people who are highly motivated, seem to self-sabotage? Why is it that some people take all the training in the world, just to make the same amount of money and stay in the same roles within their professional life? Could this be something more than just not knowing how to pull off these skills of getting thei...

Perfection Or Rejection
October 26, 2022 06:00 - 13 minutes - 9.27 MBPerfection or Rejection Research tells us that we need to stop trying to avoid failure, and embrace it as something necessary for growth.

Being Childish
August 10, 2022 06:00 - 16 minutes - 11.5 MBBeing Childish When did the word "childish" become negative? Doesn't a part of you long to go back to such an authentic way of being? To cry when you are sad, be upset when you are angry, laugh when you are amused, and to run when you have somewhere to go??? Your inner child is waiting for you to have a playdate!

Don't Quit. Grow.
July 27, 2022 06:00 - 11 minutes - 8.05 MBDon't Quit. Grow. Strength training is hard on the body. You push and you pull against resistance as you sweat and feel your muscles stretch uncomfortably. Life feels much the same sometimes. But that's how you grow. It's not about looking on the bright side or looking for the silver lining. It's about not quitting. It's about knowing you are uncomfortable but you will not stop now. You'll give it another day. And that's how you grow. You won't be able to stop that growth. It's qu...
Stuck In The Mud
July 20, 2022 06:00 - 18 minutes - 12.8 MBStuck in the Mud Feeling sad or disappointed about something that has happened is normal. In fact, it's healthy. But being sad is different than having and stating self-defeating statements that undermine our ability to deal with the situation.

Having a pity party is like being stuck in the mud - spinning tires and ge...

What if we decide that we don’t have time for the suggested surgery, or that we just don’t want the extra discomfort of physio, so we don’t go through with it...
