Your Favorite You Melissa Parsons

Your self-worth isn't tied to anything but being exactly you. It shouldn't depend on your achievements, career, family, relationship status, or bank account, but sometimes it’s difficult to see past that. Do external things like these have an impact on your self-worth?

In my coaching practice, I have helped women untether themselves from these old, well-worn pathways that they don’t have to walk anymore. In this episode of the podcast, I’ll help you understand how you can do that too.

Whatever you tie your self-worth to, know that the knot can be undone. And once it is, you are one step closer to becoming Your Favorite You.

Today, I’m talking about a topic near and dear to my heart. Sex and pleasure have an important role in my life. If you aren't happy with the role they play in yours, I want you to know that can change.

The things we're taught about sex in school are so limited, and most of us have been socialized to think that desire and pleasure are the same for women as it is for men. That is NOT true.

In this episode, you’ll get everything from an anatomy lesson to advice on how to prioritize your pleasure - by yourself and with your partner.

I hope the information I share brings you closer to Your Favorite You, who has an active and desirable intimate life.

It’s hard to be Your Favorite You when you don’t feel like yourself. 
Recently, I’ve been researching perimenopause and hormone therapy, and what I have found has me fired up! So much so, that I felt it was important to share about this topic with you today. 


Who wouldn’t be mad when a misinterpreted study from over two decades ago has led to so many amazing women missing out on the hormone therapy they need?

In this episode, I'll share some of the resources I have used to consult with a doctor and get started on the right medication for me.

If you have trouble describing your feelings as anything other than good or bad, that may be because you’re resisting your emotions. 
Many of us have been conditioned to push away our feelings. Maybe you had parents or caregivers who you never saw express their emotions, or you feel pressured by the societal goal to be happy all the time.
In this episode, we’ll talk about the impact resisting emotions can have on your life, and how having the tools to feel your feelings can improve your relationship with yourself and others.
It may seem easier in the short term to resist your emotions, but processing your emotions in a healthy way will allow you to live more authentically and help you on the path to becoming Your Favorite You.

In today's episode, I am joined by two complete and utter rock stars in the physician coaching space. Yes, I am chatting with Adrienne Mann and Tyra Fainstad. 

These two incredible young women physician coaches are the founders of Better Together Physician Coaching, and they have put in some amazing work to prove that coaching actually works. Listen in as they recount their personal battles with burnout and the quest for self-recognition that steered them toward the transformative effect of coaching.

I do want to say that you don't have to be a physician for coaching to work, and if coaching can work on female physicians, it can work on anyone.
