Season 8 Episode 9: Letting Your Humanity Come Through with Jill Farmer

I'm going to finish out season 8 with a bit of a throwback to season 1, when I was in the hot seat with my amazing friend, Jill Farmer. (I hope all my newer listeners will check that out here: https://www.lisakuzman.com/podcast-archive/episode-20-staying-authentic-when-sht-gets-real-my-turn-in-the-hot-seat)

After the way this year has gone for me, it felt like the perfect time to revisit the concept — and Jill is even back for round 2!

First, a quick refresh on Jill: she's a master certified time and stress management coach, as well as the author of the bestselling There's Not Enough Time... and Other Lies We Tell Ourselves. You may know her from pieces she's had published in The Washington Post or Inc. Magazine (among others!) or the podcast she co-hosts, "DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast.”

On this episode, Jill and I really drill down into the theme of "it's okay to not be okay" and the process of applying this to my life. We'll talk about:

What happens when all the coping mechanisms you've curated over years, if not decades, just... stop working Why aren't we as kind to ourselves as we are to others, when it comes to our own "not-okayness"? How important — and f*cking hard — it is to show up when you're not okay

...which is exactly why I'm going first.

Thank you so much to Jill for coming back to put me in the hot seat one more time. Thank you, also, to everyone who tuned in for season 8. It definitely didn't unfold the way I expected it to, and I'm so glad you could be here with me as it did.
