Faith Hoskins joins me this week for an episode that you may want to listen to a few times. We're talking about self-talk... that voice in our heads that is going all day long. Our brains have a bias towards negativity, so Faith walks us through ways that we can start to shift that negativity and allow ourselves to consider a positive outcome. Why is this so powerful? Our thoughts impact our emotions which impact how we show up in the world. Some of the tips and advice in th...

Feeling good - confident - in what we wear and in our appearance matters. Style helps us to feel empowered, put together, confident, and positive.

A single comment about us being too shy or too smart or too silly can have an impact for YEARS. This week I'm talking about what listeners shared with me about labels they've dealt with in life - anything from ditzy to quiet to smart to class clown. It's time to stop "shoulding" on ourselves and on others. Often comments like this aren't even meant to be overheard... but they often are. And do we expect people to stay the same through life? Reunions can be a challenge as we battle the reputat...
