We come to this world full of worth. Nothing we do or become changes that. But our minds tend to forget. This podcast features conversations with people who have learned to own their worth again. It is a reminder that we are already always full of worth. We are worthfull. Find out more at https://worthfullproject.com

EP 196 // Taking Space and Singing the Melody // Emily Snyder
“You're not going to get picked apart in the support role nearly as much as somebody gets picked apart in the melody or the spotlight role."
I have been texting friends I want to catch up with and asking them to come over to the studio to record a podcast as our hang out. It's a real win win. This episode is with my good friend Emily Snyder, who was a guest on two of our bonus episodes from season 3, linked below. She's an incredibly smart organizational consultant and she's worked in lots of women's groups. But our conversation ended up being about giving ourselves permission to take up space, being sovereign of our own lives, and singing the melody even though we are altos. Each story and metaphor she shared was so relatable, and I hope they speak to you too.

EP 195 // Expressing Worth with and without Words // Heather Francis
“Maybe owning our worth with our words is about being calm and trusting that we know the right channel and medium to communicate what we're trying to communicate."
My good friend Heather came back on the podcast after a couple of years to talk with me about ways she's learned to communicate her worth without words . . . and when words are really useful. If you didn't catch Heather's first episode, she's a dancer by background and works in arts education. As we were talking, I had a revelation about my natural style of communicating and how I've been operating outside of that for a long time -- but it's time to come back to my natural aesthetic language! I really loved this conversation, mostly because it was for me.

EP 194 // What's Special About Being Specific // Christine Baird
“What happens when we're courageous enough and clear enough to be specific about what we're up to?"
I'm back with a solo episode (a week late) and this one is about something I've been mulling on for months/years, but has really hit home for me lately. It has to do with the worth of our words when we are specific -- especially when it comes to our work, our values, our decisions, our relationships, and more. Something I've noticed that I get much more excited and inspired by someone who is specific about what they are up to in the world than someone who is vaguely broad in how they talk about themselves or their work. I'm trying to get specific when I talk about what I do, believe, care about, etc. It's a work in progress, but I believe it's helping me align my words with my worth. -
EP 193 // Choosing What to Say and Not Say // Elise Gubler
“Listening can be a way to align your words with your worth."
My dear friend Elise Gubler came on the show to talk about her experiences with worth and words as a PR professional for both a large international church and now as a MBA student in her mid-30s. I love Elise for many reasons, but her insight about why it matters what we say (and don't say) on public stages and in private situations is really great. This is something I think about a lot and I hope you get as much value out of the conversation as I did.

EP 192 // What to Do Without Clarity // Kristen Metzger
“The best stories are the ones with turns and twists that you're not expecting."
My dear friend Kristen Metzger, who you just heard from 2 episodes ago, was back in town, and while we were catching up, I asked if she wanted to turn the mics back on so that we could "process out loud" what we've been learning about pursuing our purpose when we don't know what that purpose is. She obliged, and we have another episode for you. Does this mean that Kristen becomes my co-host for all of Season 6? I hope so. I love Kristen and I loved talking about the connection between our words and worth and purpose with her.

EP 191 // Nourishing Ourselves with Kindness // Christine Baird
“It’s what we take into ourselves that we then communicate to others in some form or other. Maybe that’s what we see in the faces of the holy ones. What glows so brightly in them is the serenity and kindness they have nourished within themselves all their lives." - Sister Joan Chittister
I read this quote on one of my favorite blogs this month and saved it immediately so that I could record a podcast episode about it. I think this is such a beautiful way to describe aligning our words with our work. What if we all could be holy ones, if we nourish ourselves with serenity and kindness -- so that THAT is what we communicate with others?

Christine is a creative, compassionate and incredible curator of worthfull ideas! Her thoughts and creative projects provide so much value to my life and especially the enjoyment I feel reflecting in my own inner landscape.
Momentum Building
Christine has a clear and calm voice amidst a lot of chaotic messages in media today. What I love the most is the peaceful assurance I get when I listen that I have what I need to move forward and make the most of my potential in whatever career or work I chose to engage with. Her professional experience is shared gratefully and wisely gathers other creative work to curate messages that build momentum towards real success.
