Misogyny at Work: An Inside Job
This week, I share about how we can start to chip away at the subconscious messages that have been wired into our brains that can hold us back in our careers, impact our relationships, and degrade the core of our self-esteem.
Planning for the New Year
As the New Year is upon us, it's normal to be pulled to “get your ducks in a row," get organized and have sense you're walking into the new year with a solid plan.
I'd like to invite you to calm the intensity all that “doing” energy and invite your true “being” energy to the party, allowing you to lean gently and intentionally into what you're truly being called to in the year ahead. I've created a few steps to help you create a personal planning session for yourself as you start to welcome in 2022.
Embracing Your Growth Edge
A “growth edge” is that place that moves us from the known to the unknown, comfortable to uneasy, stagnation to growth. Very often people avoid leaning into a growth edge because it’s scary, overwhelming and, frankly, they don’t trust themselves. But taking an opportunity to embrace your growth edges - and even to take time to build some strength around them - allows you to step deeper and deeper into the person you want to become. Ready to give it a try?
Finding Worthiness
Self-love, self-esteem, self-regard, self-confidence and all the other ‘self-’ words are wonderful and important. But, the most crucial concept of them all is self-worth - the importance you place on yourself. It is a fundamental element of our being and controls the way we see ourselves both individually and in the world.
Are You Living Your Values?
Your values are those things you believe in your heart of hearts are the most important way for you to live and work. They guide your thoughts, actions and decisions, and ultimately are a way to measure whether life is turning out the way you want it to.
When you are in alignment with your values, you feel fulfilled, content and satisfied. When you’re not, you feel frustrated, overwhelmed, bored and easily distracted. That’s why it’s so important to be able to identify and work with your values on a regular basis.
Dealing With the Unknown
The beginning of the new school year has come and gone. The excitement of what to come is coupled with the fears of what may be. One would think that after 18 months of dealing with uncertainty and the unknown we would have become adept at it. And yet, we’re still craving control. Control over our circumstances, our decisions, our lives. But, as much as we would like, the decisions other people make and their behaviors are not ever within our control. The one thing we can learn to do is to control our mindset.
