As the host of The Open House podcast, Louise Rumbel, shares her personal experiences, she emphasizes the importance of finding joy in simple things like birdsong and being present in nature. She also reminds us that everyone has their unique timeline in life, and it's essential to trust our instincts and make decisions based on what feels right for us, rather than societal pressures.

Self-worth and reactions: Focus on building a resilient nervous system and increasing tolerance for uncomfortable situations to define self-worth, not reactions from others. Share truth and step out of comfort zones for growth.

Keep doing the work, start small, and remember that sharing your truth is important. Additionally, stepping outside of our comfort zones can lead to growth and new experiences, even if it's scary.
