Letting Go of Comparing Yourself to Others EP#331

Letting Go of Comparing Yourself to Others EP#331

Ever find yourself cruisin’ through Facebook, just minding your own business, and then BOOM! You see someone who is thinner than you posing in her bikini in her exotically sexy, annoying vaca pics and you instantly start comparing yourself to her. Or maybe it’s that one guy you used to work with sharing about his amazing work promotion for his new, totally awesome company, and your mind starts GOING OFF about how you just aren’t smart enough… not good enough… not accomplished enough. Just. Not. Enough.

Maybe it’s not even Facebook or Insta… although they can be BEASTS in the whole comparison thing. Maybe it’s your co-worker, your neighbor, your bestie, or even your spouse that you constantly compare yourself to. And it usually ends the same way… with you CONVINCED that you totally suck. How do I know? Oh, honey, because I have soooo been there. And you are certainly not alone.

In this week’s episode, I share four ways you can change how you address the comparison trap which will allow you to actually enjoy stalking out your nephew’s hilarious pics on Facebook instead of plummeting into self-hate.

This pod explores:

  • How to catch yourself when you start “making up” what other people’s successes mean about you
  • How to get to the root of what triggers you
  • How to be sure you are setting yourself up for success by hanging out with the right peeps
  • How to switch your focus so you feel empowered instead of feeling like shit

Accessing “Enoughness”: Believing You Are Worthy EP#330

Accessing “Enoughness”: Believing You Are Worthy EP#330

You want to start your own biz, but you’re not sure you’re ‘good’ enough. You want to put your name in for the promotion, but you often think, “I’m not experienced enough”. You want to go back to school, but you often feel like you’re not young enough to start over. No matter what the goal… there is this constant phrase on loop in your mind… Not enough, not enough, not enough. UGH!

Sound familiar? If so, join the club. No, seriously. In my decade+ of working in personal development, I can tell you that the idea that “I’m not enough” is probably one of the most common, deep-seated beliefs people hold. And, the bitch of it all, is that it damn-near always stifles your growth and keeps you from going after what you really want in your life. In essence, feeling “not enough’ can contribute to a shit-ton of unnecessary heartache and unhappiness.

In this week’s show, I look at four concepts you can employ to bust out of feeling ‘less than’ and step into some serious worthiness and self-confidence. Get ready to shed that old belief and get into some serious life-changing action!

This pod explores:

  • How feeling ‘not enough’ shows up in ways we don’t expect
  • The lie you’ve likely bought into about what defines ‘enough’
  • My favorite tool to help you really, truly feel like ‘enough’ in all areas of your life

7 Reasons Goals Fail + How to Make Sure Yours Don’t EP#329

7 Reasons Goals Fail + How to Make Sure Yours Don’t EP#329

At the start of every year, it’s likely you get pumped up and excited to make some serious change. You decide on a handful of things that you are GOING to conquer this year, god-damn-it! But what actually makes those goals a reality?

Throughout my decade-plus in this work, I have found that noble intentions have very little to do with bringing goals to fruition. Good ol’ fashioned gumption and desire are not enough to make your dreams come true. [sad trombone ]In fact, a recent Inc.com article indicated that only 8% of people actually accomplish their goals. WHOA!! 8%!? Well, fuck.

But, wait.

Never fear, Babycakes, because this episode targets seven ways people tend to sabotage their own goals (without even realizing it) and how you can set yourself up to slaaaaay all your goals. It’s not rocket science, but if you employ some of these easy tactics, you will kill all your 2020 goals! Yes, please!

This pod explores:

  • My favorite tool to use to ensure you are tackling this goal for YOU (instead of mom/fam/boss/society)
  • The number one way people lose steam while working towards a goal and how you can smoothly move beyond this obstacle like a BOSS
  • Why you need accountability and people in your life to support you and what to do if you don’t
  • How to keep your self-talk on point so you are constantly encouraged, kicking ass, and taking names

Although fun and festive, it can take a sheer act of god to keep you from losing your ever-lovin’ mind during the chaos of this time of year, amiright!?

If it’s not the multitude of gifts to buy or the food to prep, then it’s surely the family drama or workplace obligations that bring you to your breaking point. And while you’re spending money on shit you don’t want to buy or baking food for people you don’t even enjoy very much, you find yourself wondering why the fucking peace on earth has eluded you. But, lord help you if you don’t show up to the office party with the secret santa gift or all hell might break loose if you tell the in-laws you can’t make it this year.

If you have found yourself overloaded by holiday stress and obligations, get ready for a huge sigh of relief. On this week’s show, I sound off on six things you can start doing immediately to relinquish all the holiday overwhelm and chaos so you can actually enjoy the things about this time of year that truly mean the most to you.

This pod explores:

  • How your attachment to things being P E R F E C T may be causing you unnecessary stress and overwhelm
  • My favorite tool to figure out exactly how (and with whom) I want to spend my time and energy

6 Ways to Deal with Grief During the Holidays EP#326

6 Ways to Deal with Grief During the Holidays EP#326

Ever feel like you just can’t quite enjoy the holidays because you’re in the middle of an emotional shitstorm that seems to make the season trying, stressful, and overwhelming? Maybe it’s your first holiday after being newly divorced. Or maybe it’s the fifth Christmas without your beloved mother, and you can’t seem to understand why it’s still so damn hard for you. Or perhaps you just moved your family across the country and although it was an amazing decision for you, you still find yourself incredibly nostalgic, overly emotional, and sensitive.

If any of that sounds familiar, it’s likely that there is something in your world that needs a little processing. (And, no there’s nothing wrong with you.) Perhaps what’s tugging at you is the need for full-on grieving the loss of a loved one, which feels exacerbated by the sentimental tone of the holiday. Or perhaps it’s as simple as “a case of the blues” because you’ve changed jobs and aren’t able to do the gift exchange with your previous company you were with for ages.

Whatever you may be going through in your life, if you’ve created any changes in patterns, it’s likely that there may be a bit (or a shit ton) of emotion to work through… especially during this time of year. Even if you don’t think grief is called for, have a listen through this episode where I share six things you can do to work through all the “feels” you’re having during this temperamental time. And, P.S. dealing with your feels doesn’t mean you’re weak, too dramatic, or too sensitive. It just means you’re fucking human. And, brave.

This pod explores:

  • The real reason why you might be drinking too much, eating too much, or spending too much during the season
  • The best way to set yourself up for success if you KNOW the holidays will make your current life circumstances extra tough
  • How to let go of the past in a powerful way and create a new, empowered meaning behind the season
  • Who you should (and should not) be turning to for support

7 Ways to Gain Clarity When You Don’t Know What to Do EP#325

7 Ways to Gain Clarity When You Don’t Know What to Do EP#325

A PODiance member wrote to the show and wanted to know how to figure out what to do… when you just don’t know what to do… aka Making Tough Decisions. I mean… how on earth do you know if you’re making the right choice or not? And, GOD! What if you don’t make the “right” choice! Hell may freeze over…

Or maybe you’re super indecisive, always second-guessing your choices, and find yourself fearful of making the wrong choice… so you simply remain paralyzed, not moving in any real direction. Or maybe you’re having a hard time making a choice because of other people in your life. Maybe you’re afraid of letting them down or afraid of how they may feel about your choices.

In this episode, I share seven steps to take when you are spiraling into the “I don’t know what to do!” abyss. These specific steps will help you get centered, make powerful choices for yourself, and let go of what everyone else may think about it. Yes, please!

This pod explores:

  • How to use the information you already know to help guide your decision-making
  • Why quitting is sometimes the best move to take
  • How to figure out if you’re making choices based on what YOU want… or if you’ve been motivated by other people’s opinions
  • The exact phrase you need to start telling yourself when you hear yourself saying, “I don’t know!”

Sending out an S.O.S.: Dealing with Shiny Object Syndrome EP#324

Sending out an S.O.S.: Dealing with Shiny Object Syndrome EP#324

In our society that craves INSTANT gratification for damn-near everything, no wonder we get tripped up on the continual chase for the next best thing. The next shiny object. Surely, *this new thing* will make me happy. But, wait… now I’m bored with *that thing*, but Ooooooo, what about *this new thing over here*… and then rinse, repeat. Jumping from shiny object to shiny object. Not following through with anything and on a hamster wheel of happiness chasing.

But, here’s the thing… we usually do this racket without even realizing it. We do it subconsciously. We’re usually just trying to feel better, avoid something uncomfortable, and forget our shitty situation already. But, if you keep up this chase, you never really accomplish anything of merit and your happiness is inevitably always postponed.

In this week’s show, I look at the multitude of ways this not-so-medical “syndrome” shows up in your world, how to stop yourself from making hasty, rash choices, and where to really, *truly* find your Happiness.

This pod explores:

  • The number one phrase you likely repeat over and over if you’re a shiny object chaser (and why you need to stop!)
  • How spontaneity and impulsivity (although sexy) can be destroying your follow-through (and happiness)
  • How to figure out the real reason you jump from this shiny thing to that shiny thing
  • How to figure out what you are really craving in your life that you aren’t getting, so you can stop wasting time and money

How To *Not* Lose Your Shit With Your Family This Holiday Season EP#323

How To *Not* Lose Your Shit With Your Family This Holiday Season EP#323

Find yourself dreading holiday functions with your family because it’s only a matter of time until your mom pesters you about why you don’t go to church anymore… or you aunt gives you shit for not having kids or not being married… or your uncle gets in a heated (uncomfortable) “discussion” about gun rights? Or perhaps you’re dreading the impending convo where your bro asks you for money. Again.

Even though the holidays are supposed to be merry and bright, they can often be the most stressful when it comes to dealing with our families. Enter years of baggage, a shit-ton of guilt, mix in some alcohol, and you have a family holiday that leaves you feeling like shit instead of connected with those you supposedly love the most. If this sounds any kind of familiar, all is not lost. And, believe it or not, you can totally take back your holiday experience, boundary your ass off, and consciously CHOOSE your focus this holiday. Even if your sister is an ass-hat.

This pod explores:

  • How to prepare for your family function ahead of time to set you up for success… even if your family is giving the circus a run for their money
  • What it really looks like to set up healthy boundaries and actually follow through on them
  • How to avoid (or end) uncomfortable conversations with the utmost grace
  • How to decide exactly what you want to focus on during the get-together… you know, so you can actually enjoy yourself

7 Communication Habits You Need to Break + What to Do Instead – Part 2 EP#322

7 Communication Habits You Need to Break + What to Do Instead – Part 2 EP#322

If you’re like most people, you learned how to address conflict through a process of trial and error. Maybe it was just how your parents did things… just sweeping things under the rug or telling little white lies to make sure everyone else was happy.

And, then you get into your adult life and wonder why you are always pulled to tell lies about why you can’t make it to that one work event instead of simply saying that you have plans. Or maybe now there is a shit-ton of conflict in your relationship, but you keep telling everyone else about it… just not your spouse.

Listen, Love. If this is your sitch you are soooo not alone. It’s likely that you simply were never taught HOW to actually speak up for yourself and say what you really mean. In last week’s episode, I covered off 7 major communication habits we tend to fall into instead of simply saying what we really mean. In this week’s edition, I cover off what you can actually DO about those patterns so that you can truly stand up for yourself. With grace and kindness, of course.

This pod explores:

  • The questions you MUST ask yourself when you feel pulled to write something off or “sweep it under the rug”
  • How to use jokes and being passive aggressive as a gateway to actually say what you mean (this one is easy!)
  • The best way to enter into a challenging convo so that the other person is waaaaay more likely to listen
  • My favorite way to decline invites without being a big ‘ol liar (You can do this, I promise!)
