Podcasts about Perfectionism

Today's guest is Madeleine Dore, a Melbourne-based writer and interviewer exploring how we can broaden the definition of a day well spent. For the past five years, Madeleine has been asking people about how they navigate their day on her popular site Extraordinary Routines and podcast Routines & Ruts. Most recently, she's written a book called I Didn't Do The Thing Today, out this week. I flew through an early copy and bring up some of my favorite insights from the book in this conversation. We also talk about finding richness in ruts, the paradox of choice and “infinite browsing mode", leaving space for surprise in our days, two kinds of perfectionism, the difference between standards and expectations, cringing at old work, and more. I loved speaking with her and I'm excited to hear your thoughts on finding richness in routines. Show Notes:- There are currently two spots open in my one-on-one creative consulting!

This episode may seem like its for perfectionists, but it turns out we all have some perfectionist tendencies! I am talking with Andrea Fortenberry, the host of the Perfectionist Guide to Mothering Podcast. As a recovering perfectionist, Andrea encourages women to develop realistic expectations, find a supportive community, and understand where their true value comes from. As we spoke, she shared many practical tips to help us find a little more peace and grace in our daily lives.Show NotesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/journeyofruth)

Tweetable Comments “There's going to be so many gifts, which come out of my budget. So naturally Nicole's like, let's give them all the gifts.” “There's the thing I think you asked me to do, then there's what I heard, then there's what I interpreted.” “Maybe that's the whole point of 2022. Maybe there simply aren't any rules or resolutions, maybe it's claiming back some of what was or rebuilding something totally different. It's remembering the essence of what gives us joy and what we want to celebrate.” “Perfectionism is a form of punishment and self hatred.” “Imperfection is selfless and it's a gift to others.” “Give the gift of imperfection.” “Build your strengths, dive into your weaknesses and share them vulnerably.” “Repurpose things in your life. I'm repurposing my treadmill into a bar and a laundry holder.”  

Did you know that if lots of people  have lots of unprotected sex and the men never ejaculate you can help Jesus create his kingdom on Earth?  No? Well then you would NOT have been accepted into the Oneida Community Cult and you would've never gotten to live in a 93,000  square foot compound in Oneida, NY with around three hundred other followers.  This is just one of the super crazy messages John Humphrey Noyes  taught the followers living in his community. He also taught them that he was perfect. Literally perfect. And then, when he finally had to flee the country or be arrested for having sex with underage girls, his followers went on to built the largest silverware company North America had ever seen. I love how weird this episode is - hope you do too! The Bad Magic Charity of the month is Love Thy Neighbor!

How can you be a high achiever and reach for big goals while still holding on to your values? What do you do when there are just too many good things to choose from in your life?

: Perfectionism has a strange advantage among those it afflicts. A need for perfect. Wonderfully there is a perfect answer. Christ came to be our perfection. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Ted Witzig Jr. helps us understand socially prescribed perfectionism and the answer Jesus is to the perfection we long for. Show notes We love perfectionists. Who wouldn't want a perfectionist as their builder, accountant, or surgeon? Perfectionists hold high standards and are successful and acclaimed because they do. This is precisely why perfectionism is tricky…strengths can become weaknesses. Three types of perfectionism: Self-oriented perfectionism Definition: A person with very high, exacting standards for themselves. Unhealthy Measure: Specific performance Unhealthy Mindset: It needs to be perfect, or I've failed. There is no “good enough” in their thinking. Unhealthy Result: Harsh self-criticism & low self-compassion leading to discouragement & depression Remedy: They need to rethink success and reward the right thing. Was it adequate? Healthy Measure: Wholistic performance over time. Healthy Mindset: They need to understand that they are ‘in progress.' Growth over time is the measure. Effort is more important than outcome. Other-oriented perfectionism Definition: A person who holds others to very high, exacting standards. Unhealthy Measure: Other people's performance. Unhealthy Mindset: The belief that they are a guardian of a standard and fear the standard will be dropped. Unhealthy Result: Demanding and controlling towards others. A critical spirit creates distance and resentment between them and for those who they project their very high expectations. Remedy: Don't be a voice of fear and discouragement to the next “generation”. Rather, teach and empower them. Healthy Measure: Measure the human cost of seeking perfection. Sometimes we can get it wrong by trying to get it right. Healthy Mindset: Trust God. Trust others. Socially-prescribed perfectionism Definition: A person who reacts to their perceived beliefs about what other people expect of them. Unhealthy Measure: Trying to guess other people's perceptions. Unhealthy Mindset: Getting into someone else's head. “I think, they think…” Unhealthy Result: Insecurity, people pleasing and fabricated offenses that rob otherwise healthy moments. Remedy: Practice getting out of other people's heads. Healthy Measure: What am I assuming is true and what do I know to be true? Healthy Mindset: I can't please everyone.

Happy New Year teachers! In this episode of the Teacher Wellbeing podcast I have a fantastic chat with one of my past teacher clients, Emma. Emma shares so generously about the challenges she's experienced with perfectionism, people pleasing and the martyr culture getting in the way of wellbeing. She's spent a lot of time reflecting on this and unlearning these tendencies and shares some beautiful insights in this episode, including letting go of the need to be ‘super teacher', recognising the difference between school-imposed deadlines and self-imposed deadlines, and the power of having trusted people to hold you accountable. Emma also tells us how a supportive principal and 2 supportive colleagues saved her teaching career, so I think it's an incredible lesson that no matter your position in a school you can and do make a difference to the people you work with. The question is will it be a positive difference or not? There's so much good stuff in this episode, including setting boundaries, the ancient Jewish practice of Sabbath, and giving yourself permission to do more things just for fun. Emma also shares a bit about her experience in the Resilient Teacher Group Coaching program, which is open for enrolment again right now.The Resilient Teacher is a 6 month group coaching program for teachers building their resilience and wellbeing in 2022. It's 1 individual coaching session with me, and 12 fortnightly group coaching calls to support you throughout Semester 1 this year, beginning with a welcome call on Saturday 29th January 2022. Calls are held on Zoom so you can join from anywhere in Australia, on Tuesday evenings or Saturday mornings.You can go to www.selfcareforteachers.com.au/resilientteacher to find out more

In this Episode, I interview a pain coach and fellow Physical Therapist, Dr Andrea Moore.     We talk about her story with chronic pain and perfectionism, and why it doesn't work to try and fight the pain.   We often can't wait to get out of pain.  But the frustration and urgency to change are actually what can keep us stuck.   We retrain the brain through acceptance, and allowing what is.  As we develop our ability to sit with discomfort, our brain becomes less reactive to the sensations in our body.   If you have not yet given my podcast a rating or review, PLEASE do that here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-unstoppable-body-and-minds-podcast/id1493360543   For more information, check out my website https://bodyandmindlifecoach.com   Or to schedule a free 60 min coaching session,  click here,  https://calendly.com/thebetsyjensen/free-consult    Andrea's parents were refugees, so we talk about the impact ancestral trauma can have on the nervous system.   And we have a fun conversation about mom guilt (Andrea has never had it!)    If you have chronic pain and are “fighting your pain” without success, you will definitely want to listen to this episode!   You can find Andrea on her podcast, “Unweaving Chronic Pain”, and on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/drandreamoore/

Breaking Down "Perfectionism"

If you're a good financial advisor, you want to do the best possible work for yourself and your clients.  In theory, that's great—you get your clients higher returns and yourself a bigger book of business. But in practice, this ambition often becomes perfectionism.  This kills your marketing results—because 5 bad published articles get more results than a folder of 18 great drafts. But you don't have to let perfectionism hold you back. In fact, you can conquer it and dominate your niche. In this episode, you'll find out how to defeat your perfectionism, start marketing to your niche and supercharge your marketing results.  Want to stop editing and start publishing? Listen now!  Show highlights include:  How trying to be perfect makes you procrastinate on your goals (and how to ship things faster to run laps around your competitors) (4:20) The “80/20 squared” rule that shows you exactly which marketing message gets results and which gets ignored (6:08) The weird thoughts that show you that perfectionism is holding you back from achieving your goals (13:30) Why perfectionists get defensive when you point out their flaws (and how to correct this if it's your problem) (18:14) If you're looking for a way to set more appointments with qualified prospects, sign up for James' brand new webinar about how financial advisors can get more clients with email marketing.  Go to https://TheAdvisorCoach.com/webinar to register today.  Go to https://TheAdvisorCoach.com/Coaching and pick up your free 90 minute download called “5 Keys to Success for Financial Advisors” when you join The James Pollard Inner Circle.

This book serves as a reminder that while perfectionism may seem like a worthy ideal to strive towards, it makes us impose limits on ourselves and puts us in a bind. Perfectionism is a poison that is not only more harmful than we realize, but also extremely difficult to eradicate from our lives. Were perfectionism limited to personal preference, we wouldn't attach much importance to it. However, it is often the root of a multitude of issues; procrastination, constantly leaving work only 95% finished, severe anxiety, depression, and in extreme cases, driving people to drastic measures.

You are going to love today's conversation, with guest Kara Loewentheil, about how to truly create self confidence by rewiring your brain and thoughts, and letting go of perfectionist fantasies around New Year's resolutions.   Kara Loewentheil, J.D., is a Master Certified Coach, Host of the top-rated podcast UnF*ck Your Brain, and creator of The Clutch: A feminist mindset revolution. A graduate of Yale College and Harvard Law School, she did what every Ivy League feminist lawyer should do: Quit a prestigious academic career to become a life coach! Her Jewish parents have almost recovered; the fact that she built her business from zero to seven figures in three years didn't hurt. Five years after leaving the law she has taught thousands of women how to identify the ways that sexist socialization impacts their brains, and how to literally rewire their thought patterns to create true authentic confidence from within.    In this episode we discuss: Kara's journey from lawyer to becoming a master certified coach and starting her own business, podcast and coaching community. How thoughts create our feelings and impact our actions, and how to use the thought ladder to positively change this. New Year's Resolutions: Are they good goals or perfectionist fantasies?

When someone has ADHD, perfectionism can become an issue. If this one part was just another inch over, then it would be perfect. I want this to be purple in color to give it the best finish. Color is not even required, but when someone has perfectionism, that could be the thing they work on to find the one they would like to use. Everything has to be perfect. If it is not perfect, then they should keep working on it. What can someone do when dealing with perfectionism and they have ADHD? That is what this episode is about today! It is about 4 things that can help reduce perfectionism. Learn more about ADHD and the challenges of perfectionism in this episode! Today's sponsor for the episode is Stello Mints!

2022 is the year to embrace good enough. We're ditching perfectionism, throwing away shoulds, and putting aside all those expectations we always feel we have. It might be scary, but I know you can do it. Let's talk about being good enough in 2022.   The Benefits of Embracing Good Enough in 2022 Feeling less stress and burnout from trying to achieve perfection Finding awareness and understanding of your own limits and behaviors Setting realistic expectations of who you are   How Good Enough Feels What if I told you you didn't have to go into this new year with the same level of perfectionism you've come to rely on? How does it feel to let that go? I feel a sense of relief that there's another option on the table. In 2022, I'm embracing the concept of good enough. At times, it will feel scary, especially when I feel like I should be showing up and doing my very best. But, outside of life or death situations, what's the worst that can happen? Perfectionism leads to stress and burnout. We've all probably been there and know it's not nice. Embracing “good enough” means we can put down the perfectionist baton and start relaxing that little bit more.   Honoring Yourself with Good Enough I actually think admitting that something is “good enough” is a badge of honor. It means you're honoring yourself, your behaviors, and your limits. What do I mean by that? When you start to factor in what good enough looks like for you, you'll start to see where your limits are. I give an example of how I approach commitment with a good enough lens. This approach increases my self-awareness while also respecting the people around me and their needs. Understanding your own behavior is so important. It helps you set boundaries, but it also helps you push your boundaries and step outside your comfort zone. And isn't that what life is all about? Finding that balance of good enough, contentment, connection, and more. I want you to think about your blind spots. Your blind spots will be where you typically have really high expectations. What are these? I want you to start trying on “good enough.” What does this look like for you? Let me know what “good enough” looks like for you in the comments on the episode page.   In This Episode  How it might feel to be good enough in 2022 [2:00] Why perfectionism leads to stress and burnout [7:45] Why admitting that it's “good enough” is a badge of honor [10:15] How to honor your good enough while still respecting others [21:45] Why awareness of your own behavior matters [23:30] What good enough actually boils down to [28:00]   Quotes “If, in the moment, we believe that we acted to the best of our ability (and notice I said ‘best'), then when an outcome happens, we have to be able to say, ‘I did good enough. I gave everything I had.'” [9:11] “When the outcome is favorable, it's much easier for us to believe that we did good enough.” [15:58] “I think that good enough takes the pressure off. It takes the possibility that perfection exists away. If perfection isn't real, which it's not, by the way, then what are we doing? What we're doing is trying to live a fulfilled life, with contentment, connection, motivation, excitement, spontaneity, and commitment.” [25:57]   Resources Mentioned Check out the full episode page here Find Life Coaching for Women Physicians Online Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Facebook | Instagram  Subscribe to Life Coaching for Women Physicians on Apple Podcasts Podcast production by the team at Counterweight Creative   Related Episodes Episode 74: The Art of Creating Space Episode 72: Burnout Prevention by Thinking Outside The Box with Dr. Karen Hoffmann Episode 87: When Old Thoughts Resurface

There's no cut and dry way to market your business on social media. But our brains want yes and no answers for how we should do things. So a lot of times our content ends up coming out a little flat - either sharing tip after tip after tip or just saying “buy from me, buy from me, buy from me” - because that's what we think we're supposed to do. But what's actually attractive to your ideal customers is your perspectives, your mission, your values, and your stories. That's what makes your brand unique and that's what people end up loving about you. And it's a realization that former 1:1 coaching client of mine (and now - founding member of the Feel Good Social Club), Lindsay Graves, has figured out. Check out this episode where she shares how she's learned how to create content for her business in a way that works for her. We talk more about+ Lindsay's story and what she does (It's pretty stinkin' cool, especially if you're a plant person and you live in a high altitude climate) + How you've kind of got to go through this “trying things out” period to find a strategy that works for you+ How to avoid getting distracted by shiny marketing strategies and treat your content creation like a science experiment+ And how your social media strategy is only one part of the marketing puzzle (Or one slice of the pizza, which is actually the metaphor we used in this episode) Connect with Lindsay at fourthstreetfarm.com or on Instagram @fourthstreetfarm!If you enjoy this episode, please leave a review on Apple Podcast and share it to your Instagram stories!Don't forget to tag me @feelgoodsocial, so I can see and spread the love back to you!---For extended show notes + a whole lot of goodies, visit feelgoodsocial.com/episode/101---Been struggling to keep ALLL the things of your business organized?

Year Review → I call 2021 an enormous success beyond measure and beyond my wildest imagination. Not for the reasons you think lol! Yes, there was business success, 7-figure revenue in Q1, which… lead me to states where I had to question everything and the ideas behind competence, success, achievement… and what followed was…. KALI. I was made aware of her presence recently, but I suspect that she's been around “helping out” at least since 2019 when 4 days into my pregnancy my lover left the country and I would never hear from him again to this day. Who is Kali? A Hindu goddess of chaos and destruction who dresses in skulls and looks a little scary. Also the goddess of death and rebirth and transformation. She will sweep in with seemingly random events and throws your life in chaos, out of love. When you aren't willing to tear your own life of pretenses down, she helps. She's not gentle about it. Neither am I, so I have immense appreciation for the “cut the crap” energy. Magic happens. You are forced to purify, purify, purify. What followed was an intense cleansing process. Past trauma. Relationship with self. Narcissism. Valuing weird stuff, like success for the sake of success. Constant seeking and searching. Needing to be respected or seen as a success. Hiding and pretending (also known as lying) to others and to myself. Judgmentalism. Seeing others as more than/less than. Control. Endless pressure and carrying the world on my shoulders. Perfectionism, superdoing, superwomaning. And on and on and on. If you think “what the heck Iva, what kind of hell were you living in?” - that seemed kind of normal, like normal ego stuff. A lot of it was not even conscious. There was one thing, in particular, that was hell that brought grief so deep I could not even face it. Months and months of resistance to spending time with my own daughter, who is just about the happiest most loving toddler and there was no logical reason for it. I thought well, as a working mother-father 2-in-1, that's just how it is. I was always a good mom through it all, but I would count down to her bedtime so I could exhale. Healing that, and falling back in love with her as well as with myself, was the biggest gift of 2021, but I had to heal everything else on the list for the heart to open back up. I cannot even begin to tell you how grateful I am to have had the resources, the teachers, the support to be able to dig this deep. And so… Going into 2022 I am… WILLING!!!! (Screams on top of her lungs). I trust so much the process (of life). I highly doubt 2022 will be smooth sailing but that is so not the point anyway. I am willing to follow my soul and my heart even when I disappoint others and it's completely irrational and people think I have gone nuts (lol i have been told that this year too.) I am willing to continue turning into goo anything that's not pure. I am willing to experience and feel any emotion that arises. Willing to stop, and do absolutely nothing when that is what is needed (that is the scariest one on the list.) Willing to stop mid-sentence, if my soul and heart says stop. Willing to let go of anything that stands between me and freedom and, willing to say or do ANYTHING that will free another. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iva Paleckova is a mindset and strategy coach for entrepreneurs, a CEO of LeadersBreakFree.com and the host of the Break Free Show on iTunes.

“Do your best and leave the rest” is a tricky balance for the perfectionist. Yet it sums up a measure of health for those who have high, exacting standards for themselves or others. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Ted Witzig Jr. teaches us about two types of perfectionism. Show notes We love perfectionists. Who wouldn't want a perfectionist as their builder, accountant, or surgeon? Perfectionists hold high standards and are successful and acclaimed because they do. This is precisely why perfectionism is tricky…strengths can become weaknesses. Three types of perfectionism: Self-oriented perfectionism Definition: A person with very high, exacting standards for themselves. Unhealthy Measure: Specific performance Unhealthy Mindset: It needs to be perfect, or I've failed. There is no “good enough” in their thinking. Unhealthy Result: Harsh self-criticism & low self-compassion leading to discouragement & depression Remedy: They need to rethink success and reward the right thing. Was it adequate? Healthy Measure: Wholistic performance over time. Healthy Mindset: They need to understand that they are ‘in progress.' Growth over time is the measure. Effort is more important than outcome. Other-oriented perfectionism Definition: A person who holds others to very high, exacting standards. Unhealthy Measure: Other people's performance. Unhealthy Mindset: The belief that they are a guardian of a standard and fear the standard will be dropped. Unhealthy Result: Demanding and controlling towards others. A critical spirit creates distance and resentment between them and for those who they project their very high expectations. Remedy: Don't be a voice of fear and discouragement to the next “generation”. Rather, teach and empower them. Healthy Measure: Measure the human cost of seeking perfection. Sometimes we can get it wrong by trying to get it right. Healthy Mindset: Trust God. Trust others. Socially-prescribed perfectionism Definition: A person who reacts to their perceived beliefs about what other people expect of them. Unhealthy Measure: Trying to guess other people's perceptions. Unhealthy Mindset: Getting into someone else's head. “I think, they think…” Unhealthy Result: Insecurity, people pleasing and fabricated offenses that rob otherwise healthy moments. Remedy: Practice getting out of other people's heads. Healthy Measure: What am I assuming is true and what do I know to be true? Healthy Mindset: I can't please everyone.

Reco12 is an organization with the mission of learning and sharing the similarities of addiction of all kinds and gaining and sharing tools and hope from others who are walking a similar path.  Speakers from our past meetings have represented many, many fellowships and identify with addictions with such variety of alcohol, drugs, food, sex, gambling, theft, just to name a few.  Typically, each Friday at noon central time, we hold a live, lunch-hour speaker meeting with a recovering addict from anywhere on Earth, pertaining to any or no faith tradition, and with any background, who shares their experience, strength, and hope on a specified recovery topic of their choice.  They share for 20-25 minutes on that topic, and then the live audience gets the opportunity to ask questions of that speaker for another 20-25 minutes.  For a few reasons, among which that today is Christmas Eve, I am pre-recording this week's meeting and releasing it only as a podcast.  But we will be back with a live meeting next Friday, on New Year's Eve with our most listened-to guest speaker, Nikki M, who will close out 2021 and launch us off into 2022 with the topic of “God Creating the Fellowship You Crave”.  If you haven't heard her previous 2 meetings, I would highly suggest you go and tap into her energy, love, and light.  Her Higher Power has definitely lit a fire with her and she is always happy to share that fire with others.Before I get into my quick share for this meeting, I want to make a quick announcement about plans for Reco12 in 2022.  Beginning March 4, 2022, we will start a 12-week series on each of the 12 Steps of Recovery.  I am searching for people who are absolutely passionate about each of the 12 Steps and come from any and all fellowships of recovery who would like to share with us their experience, strength, and hope on one of the Steps.  The basic format will be the same.  20-25 minutes of a share on that particular step, and then 20-25 minutes of Q and A from the live audience.  If you, or someone in your fellowship is passionate about one of the Steps and just seems to share and share about a particular step and the power of that step in your life, please consider reaching out to me at reco12pod@gmail.com and we will discuss it and get it scheduled.  I would also like to do a few other targeted multi-week series based on the 12 traditions, specific tenets, sayings or clichés, or other recovery principles.  Reco12 is a self-supporting service and we appreciate your help in keeping it that way.  We gratefully accept contributions to help cover the costs of the Zoom platform, podcast platform, web hosting, and administrative costs.  To contribute, you can go to https://www.reco12.com/support  or you can click the link to PayPal (https://www.paypal.me/reco12)  in the chat of the live meeting.  When you contribute, please specify the meeting number.  This is meeting number 81.  Outro music is “Standing Still” by Cory Ellsworth and Randy Kartchner, performed by Mike Eldred and Elizabeth Wolfe.  This song, and/or the entire soundtrack for the future Broadway musical, “Crosses:  A Musical of Hope”, can be purchased here:  https://music.apple.com/us/album/crosses-musical-hope-by-cory/528476262  This song is used with the  permission of Cory Ellsworth.Support the show (https://www.reco12.com/support)

This episode is perfect in all the imperfect ways. We all hold onto this thought, even a little bit whether you are a revolutionary leader or not, that to be the BEST at anything, we must be perfect in all of the ways. Not only is this complete BS…  It's exhausting! Let's get real together, perfectionism isn't a damn thing. As revolutionary leaders we acknowledge that perfectionism needs to be put behind us, but it shows up in really funky other ways, and in this episode we are going to talk about it. You deserve to be more than perfect. You deserve to be whole. You don't need to have it all together. You get to let it all fall apart. Perfectionism is a confining space that I am going to help you bust the hell out of. We are going to lose this fucked up sense of being perfect, and embrace our messy ass selves.   Connect with Gieselle:  Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gieselleallen/   Apply for 1:1 or group coaching with Gieselle:  https://gieselleallen.com/

Growing up in Poland, today's guest, Justyna, didn't learn much from her parents or teachers about the body changes that came with puberty. As she moved through adolescence, she became increasingly uncomfortable with how her body was changing. She began a 20-year journey with dieting — an experience that SO many of our listeners can relate to. Now 39, Justyna lives in Antwerp, Belgium, and is at a very different point in life. She recognizes that dieting hasn't made her happy and that she's been trying to force her body into a shape that it simply doesn't want to inhabit. Her body has been giving her clear messages that it wants to live on its terms, which Justyna wants to honor but doesn't quite how to do that.

Christine super tapped in and went through so much work in, through, and on herself that she is what Jill calls a “clean vessel”. With tremendous amounts of grace, Christine holds space for others in such a beautiful way. During this episode, Christine shares her insights on mom guilt, perfectionism, marriage, control and more.

Each episode features Jill's experiences with personal development and her journey to being yourself, sometimes featuring guests who are prime examples of women helping women.    Being a girl boss no longer just refers to achievement in the workplace. Personal development and prioritizing being yourself are key ingredients in the women's empowerment movement. Jill has built a community of women helping women so that each one can reach their full potential as the badass girl boss they are.    Whether you're already a champion of women's empowerment, you're a girl boss interested in personal development, you'd like advice on being yourself, you're looking for a community of women helping women, or you're just here for Jill's lessons and entertainment, the Be You podcast is for you.  ------------------   Christine Hassler is a best-selling author, keynote speaker, master coach, and podcast host who is committed to guiding people and organizations to their highest potential. She left her successful job as a Hollywood agent at 25 to pursue a life she could be passionate about . . . but it did not come easily. After being inspired by her own unexpected challenges and experiences, she realized her journey was indeed her destination. Today, she supports individuals in answering the questions: “Who am I, what do I want, and how do I get it?” Her superpowers of intuition and compassion help people break through challenges that at one time seemed insurmountable. Bottom line: she helps people get “over it and on with it!” with love. Christine has appeared as an expert on The Today Show, CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX, E!, Style and PBS, as well as various local television and radio shows, speaking about generation diversity, millennials, resilience, leadership, life balance and “Expectation Hangovers®” – a phenomenon she identified and trademarked.

It feels extra special to bring you this final episode of 2021 filled with voices from this remarkable community of growth-minded women. Your voice always matter, in your home and communities, and here on this show. For many reasons this was a difficult year for me and my family, it almost seemed to blend with 2020. I'm sharing a little more about that, and of course what I learned from some of those tough lessons. (Spoiler: I almost quit this whole podcast gig!) My hope is that in listening to my story, as well as those of the women who so graciously called in, you will be able to learn something, too. So, tune in to hear from several women answering this prompt, "What I learned in 2021..." Thank you so, so much for being here and see you next year!
