    80: Everything You’ve Been Told About the Ego Is Wrong

    We’ve all heard it: “Your ego is the enemy.” But what if that belief is actually making things worse? In this episode, I challenge the popular narrative surrounding the ego and reveal why perceiving it as “bad” or “toxic” keeps you stuck in cycles of shame, self-doubt, and even chronic skin-picking. Instead, I offer a radically different perspective: your ego is not the enemy, it’s your wounded inner child, desperately trying to protect you. Why the mainstream idea of “killing the ego” is harmful, not healingThe real role your ego plays in protecting you from old woundsHow ego judgments fuel self-doubt and keep you stuck in unhealthy cyclesA compassionate way to work with your ego so you feel at home in yourselfPractical tools to shift from fighting yourself to embracing yourselfIf you’ve ever felt like you’re not good enough, no matter how hard you try, this conversation will show you a new path forward. 🌟Click here to apply to STRENGTH!

    78: Why the World Feels So Divided - The Real Reason We’ve Lost Compassion

    This episode is inspired by recent, saddening events. We live in a world that pushes us toward black-and-white thinking, good or bad, right or wrong, us versus them. But if you want to have a real impact, it starts with something most of us resist: keeping your heart open in the moments you most want to close it. In this episode, I share openly about processing anger, what it really means to speak your truth, and how change starts with the conversations you’re avoiding in your own life. You’ll hear me talk about: Why anger and judgment never create the change we wantWhat it takes to speak your truth with courage, even when it costs youThe hidden cost of silencing yourself to be acceptedHow closed hearts fuel division—and what happens when we choose nuance insteadWhere you can actually start making a positive impact (hint: it’s closer than you think)🌟Click here to apply to STRENGTH!

    77: From Burnout to Alignment - Emotional Intelligence for High Achievers | Zerina Derveni

    High-achieving women are used to getting results, climbing ladders, and mastering challenges, but even with all the success, many secretly feel unfulfilled. Why? Because results alone can’t fill the deeper need for meaning, alignment, and authenticity. In this powerful conversation with life coach and self-discovery expert Zerina, we explore what’s really keeping high achievers stuck, and how shifting from an IQ-driven mindset (focused on results) to an EQ-driven approach (focused on values, resilience, and emotional awareness) creates true fulfillment. You’ll discover: The hidden “gap” that leaves many high achievers feeling unfulfilledWhy self-awareness isn’t just knowing yourself, it’s unlearning old patternsThe difference between fake letting go and real letting go (and how to spot the difference)How to use fear and excitement as a compass for aligned decisionsA simple, practical way to start building your EQ todayIf you’ve ever achieved the goals you set for yourself but still wondered, “Is this really it?” This episode will give you tools, insights, and inspiration to start creating a life that feels as good as it looks.
