    Question Your Intuition (So You Can Find Your Way)

    Culture teaches us we are supposed to trust our gut, but nobody says “how” to do it. Society says we should listen to our intuition, but again, no set of instructions are ever forthcoming. And god-forbid you ask a follow up question about what intuition means exactly. Shrugs and blushes from the aunts and sent off with toy and some candy. Here’s the thing nobody told you: you are not supposed to trust your intuition. You are supposed to question it. Not interrogate it but question your intuition the way you'd question someone you're genuinely fascinated by. To get to know it. To befriend your intuitionIn today’s episode, you’ll learn:-How to bring healthy skepticism to our own modes of knowing so we can truly find our way -A two-ingredient framework for testing our intuition and learning how to befriend it. -A short S.H.I.F.T.

    Why Self-Awareness Feels Like Crap (And What To Do About It)

    We’ve been told about the virtues of self-awareness. It can lead to transformation, epiphanies, insights, and personal joy. But nobody talks about the dark side. How at first Self-Awareness feel like crap because we are learning uncomfortable things about our “personality,” or so we think. The truth is that Self-Awareness comes in stages. And in that first stage we are NOT become more aware of who we are, we are becoming more aware of the patterns, proclivities, impulses, and narratives that obscure who we are. In today’s episode, you’ll learn:-How self-awareness can backfire if left in stage 1 (I’m just like this) -How to move through all 3 stages in order to find peace and liberation (I can support myself)-A short S.H.I.F.T. Model™ practice to connect with the parts of you that are fully aware of what they consider to be your dysfunction, and to help them move from stage 1 awareness to stage 3 acceptance, because they deserve peace.

    The Power of Persistence in Pessimistic Times

    The Power of Persistence in Pessimistic TimesWe have all heard the phrase “don’t take no for an answer” but when it comes to our well-being, healing, personal growth and development we take “no” for an answer all the time. No, you can’t fully heal trauma. No, you can’t ever heal an addiction. No, I really am NOT good enough. We can be persistent in business and relationships but still wholeheartedly give up on ourselves without even noticing. In today’s episode, you’ll learn:-How we learned to be persistent in life and why our own personal thriving feels like the exception. -How to harness the power of persistence to impact your own life positively. -A short S.H.I.F.T. Model™ practice to connect with the parts of you that believe you are a lost cause, or that it’s selfish to take good care of us. Because those parts are doing their best to keep us safe, and they need our compassion. If you’re ready to discover the transformative power of befriending the parts of you that feel entirely unworthy, then this episode is for you.

    Done is Better Than Perfect

    We are told not to strive for perfectionism but only in lip service. In every other way we are encouraged to strive for perfect. Put on the finishing touches. Dot your I’s and cross your T’s. But the truth is that if we keep waiting to put something out there, or put ourselves out there, until it, or we, are perfect we are going to be waiting a long time. Perfect is an illusion, so it’s the lowest standard there is. In today’s episode, you’ll learn:-How we learned that being perfect was somehow desirable and how to let it go-How to embrace making imperfect progress and taking imperfect action -A short S.H.I.F.T. Model™ practice to connect with the parts of you that believe they have to be perfect and the parts of you that would love to make a mess. Because both parts deserve your self-acceptance and inner-friendship. If you’re ready to discover the transformative power of letting go of perfection and embracing enough-ness then this episode is for you.
