    As experts and coaches, we tend to put a lot of pressure on ourselves to know and do better - especially if we are teaching people what we are embodying. It is important to realize that we are not meant to be perfect. In fact, people respond much more to transparency and real-ness.    We also talked about people pleasing and how it can be a big issue for even adults! Even the most confident among us find it difficult to set those boundaries, especially with families and close friends.    Listen as we talk about taking care of ourselves and giving ourselves some grace when things get stressful and overwhelming.   Come join us next week for another great conversation!
