    Building Your Life to Succeed | Randy Philavong

    Today’s episode is focused on being intentional about your “environment”. What does this mean? Your “environment” encompasses the people you surround yourself with, the habits you build, and how you even set up items around your house or set up your phone to help you towards your definition of success. If you want to eat healthier, that’s intentionally buying the right snacks or buying less of snacks, depending on your goal. If you want to improve your mental health, understand what in your environment is not helping you with it. There are so many little things we can change to help build our environment for our success.  Lastly, I stress the importance of self-talk and how it plays a role in our mental health. The main key from therapy that has helped me overcome my depression. It’s another good one, so tune in!

    Why You Should Understand Self-Abandonment | Jen Tan

    We welcome back Jen Tan to the podcast to unpack on the topic of self-abandonment! Are you self-abandoning yourself? Do you know the tendencies? We have all the answers here! There are attachment styles, such as avoidant and anxious, that are not helping us become the best versions of ourselves! Jen breaks down what we can do to heal and navigate towards not self-abandoning our authentic selves.  In addition, we briefly touch on the topic on the difference between nice and kind. The term “nice guys finish last” was a mindset of mine until I realized what that really did to me.

    The True Power of Words | Randy Philavong

    In today’s episode, we dive into the difference between “I am” and “I feel” when talking about yourself in a negative way. The power of “I am” has a much more meaning to your brain and attaches the words after “I am” to your self-worth no matter if it’s bad or good. Austin Butler’s quote on embarrassment may be my new mantra when filming content to get over my anxieties on filming in public. Lastly, I dive into the powerful skill of speaking up for yourself in a respectful manner and how I think that could have prevented my indecisiveness and lack of confidence within myself. This is one that you truly don’t want to miss!  Chapters: 0:00 – Episode Summary 2:08 – Episode Intro 2:50 – “I am” vs. “I feel” 7:55 – Shop Aeza 8:15 – Embarassing Yourself More! 12:30 – Connieomg 13:04 – Learn how to Speak Up for Yourself ASAP!  Socials: Highest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion Aeza: https://shopaeza.com Connieomg on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/connieomg/?etsrc=sdt  Intro Music:  Wave Lounge – Nicolas Kluzek Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/nicolas-kluzek/wave-lounge License code: PTINMJ0VQQIJQ9LN

    Your Life Circumstance is Not Your Life Sentence | Narie Seng

    Today’s episode is primarily focused on doing what makes you happy. I sit down with a great friend of mine to discuss the shift from thinking every decision through our parents to now, post-grad, living life for us and making memories for us. Narie describes her transition and how that has helped her to become the highest version of herself with some obstacles of course. As children of immigrant parents who want to give back, we have to understand that this is our life too and we need to stay strong to what we want. Not what our parents want. Narie and I also dive deep into our therapy experiences and how much that helped us in our journeys to become the highest version of ourselves!  Chapters:  0:00 – Episode Summary 1:35 – Episode Intro 3:11 – Featured Funko Pop 5:01 – Mental Health Status 9:27 – Living Life for You 19:42 – Realizing You Have Your Own Perspective 27:14 - Aeza 27:36 – Becoming the Highest Version of Ourselves 38:26 – Understanding What You Want 46:20 – Connieomg 46:54 – Therapy Experience 55:26 – Comparing Versions of Ourselves 1:03:40 – Flowers to Guest 1:05:05 – Big 3 Questions             Socials: Highest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion Aeza: https://shopaeza.com Connieomg on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/connieomg/?etsrc=sdt  Intro Music:  Wave Lounge – Nicolas Kluzek Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/nicolas-kluzek/wave-lounge License code: PTINMJ0VQQIJQ9LN   Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/hartzmann/nu-spirit License code: PK5XE73MSPYO4VHB

    Your Brain is Tricking You | Randy Philavong

    What is up my community! We are back with another solo episode featuring topics I am super passionate about. I dive deep into my understanding of what is altering our brains to think low of ourselves or how it is setting us up for failure. These are called cognitive distortions and there are many of them that you may be surprised your brain is doing to you. Furthermore, I bring up the topic of time management and how the beginning of my journey to master it has really helped me with tools such as the Pomodoro Technique and Eisenhower Matrix. I elaborate even further on a type of cognitive distortion that keeps us from becoming the highest version of ourself and that is doubt. It is only part of our imagination, yet we let it run our life and I am here to give you mindset shifts that can combat that! You’re guys are going to love this one and thank you for tuning in!  Chapters:  0:00 – Episode Summary 1:38 – Episode Intro 2:24 – Confronting Your Negative Thoughts 14:51 – Connieomg 15:25 – Importance of Time Management 23:13 – Doubt is Not Real Socials: Highest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion Connieomg on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/connieomg/?etsrc=sdt  Intro Music:  Wave Lounge – Nicolas Kluzek Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/nicolas-kluzek/wave-lounge License code: PTINMJ0VQQIJQ9LN Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/hartzmann/nu-spirit License code: PK5XE73MSPYO4VHB
