Yes You Are Brave

114 episodes - English - Latest episode: 2 months ago - ★★★★★ - 9 ratings

This is a place to rediscover your brave. We are all brave, but most of us have forgotten that. We spend our time and effort hiding behind excuses and labels. Most that we give ourselves. We will cover internal topics/struggles as well as big events outside of our control. And how we pick ourselves up and learn to be brave again after life knocks us flat. (I learned to be brave and when cancer took my dad I felt I lost it all.) Now I am setting off on a journey to be the brave person I have always wanted to be. Come with me as we take little steps to be brave and build the lives we want. Especially when things don‘t go according to plan.

Who are you living for? Do you find yourself struggling to recognize who you have become? Are you afraid to do and be you for fear of disappointing other people?  ----more---- You ARE NOT ALONE! Pressure to keep others happy and comfortable is real. (Even if it is in our mind.) And it is easy to find ourselves in places we never planned on or living a life we don’t love.

January 12, 2022 07:04 - 19 minutes - 17.4 MB

Have you ever thought about asking questions as a skill? We often don’t find out answers because we simply do not ask. We live at a time when we can have the answers to most questions. But only if we ask. ----more---- How do we learn to ask questions? How do we develop that particular skill? It is not as hard to reach as we may think.  ----more---- Start with asking yourself questions. Small questions, big questions, uncomfortable questions.

007. Brave Enough to Not Be Jesus

December 15, 2021 07:10 - 22 minutes - 19.9 MB

Life is full of struggle. And as humans, we want to be able to help others through their troubles. It’s noble and good. But if we are not careful we take on too much from those around us and it can start to destroy us.  ----more---- Through recent experiences, the lesson of not trying to take on too much has set in. We all have to learn that while we can do amazing things for others, we are not superhuman. We have been given what we can handle, and that is all we have to handle.  ----more...

December 08, 2021 07:04 - 16 minutes - 15 MB

It is time to have a semi-formal introduction. Who is Pawnee and what makes her tick? This is not an all-encompassing answer rather a nutshell introduction.  ----more---- How would you like to introduce yourself? Who would you be if you could choose what people know about you? What matters most is who you are and not what you do. What would you share if you could only tell people a handful of things about yourself?  ----more---- Let’s start introducing ourselves in a way that feels true ...

005.Brave Enough to Snake Your Own Toilet

December 01, 2021 07:24 - 11 minutes - 10.1 MB

We all have days when things go wrong. Where in those moments when we need things to work just as they should, something hits the fan. Or refuses to go down. Sometimes those things are huge, but often it is a small/simple thing that makes us feel the most defeated.  ----more---- On the other hand, when we step up and conquer those simple things we feel super powerful. Being able to handle our own problems, no matter how small, builds confidence. You are amazing. And brave enough to conquer...

November 18, 2021 07:00 - 18 minutes - 20.4 MB

Grief is rarely convenient. And likes to pop up in moments we don’t expect. But what if instead of hiding from it we took a moment to sit with it. To really feel it. Then perhaps we wouldn’t need to carry it all. Instead of lugging it around, we could let it go just as swiftly as it came.  ----more---- This episode was recorded on a tender day.
