#326: When I find myself being judgemental.

Another week and another aspect of “our identity” to explore.

Now that I’m on to this topic, I keep having all these moments where I realize: wow, you are doing this because you identify that way… or in this week’s case, because I DON’T.

So here’s what happened, and I’m going to kick this off by saying that I’m not proud of my reaction, but I’m calling it out anyway.

I explain more in this week's podcast episode!

#325: When looking back tells you so much.

“More people need a place to feel good about themselves, to co-exist, to feel worthy of having a seat at the table.”

That is what I found in a notebook that I picked up the other day to write some things down. It was a notebook I haven’t picked up in some time (yes, I have tons and they are all over the place) and after I wrote down what I didn’t want to forget, I leafed back to see what I had previously written.

Listen to this week's episode as I talk more about this!

#324: Deciding which story to tell ourselves.

You know I love sharing snippets and concepts from books that I’m reading… and the book this time around is: The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday.

This book has been on my list for awhile (thank you, Jay!) and I’ve read others by this author, but as usual, this one is striking at just the right time.

The concept of this book is not new - but it rarely is - rather, it’s being open to receiving the message at the time you read or hear it. And boy was I primed for this one!

Listen to this week's episode as I talk more about it.

#323: Having an Identity Crisis?

It’s February, my friends! That happened quickly!

So as I was recording this week’s show, I was having all kinds of revelations at the moment.

Realizing so many things about myself at this point in my life and what’s going on with me right now.

And here’s the long and the short of it:

Apparently I’m having an identity crisis.

Listen to this week's episode as I talk more about that.

#322: Slicing the Apple just Right

Over the holiday break, I read a book about why small businesses fail. Sounds dreadful, I know, but it was EXACTLY what I needed to be reading and in fact, it was quite inspiring.

In this week's episode, I share a story that the author told and what I learned from it! Tune in and let me know what you think.

#321: Fear of Making Change when Old Habits Die Hard

I took time over the Christmas break to take a closer look at the functions of Get Lively and how to grow as a business so that we can continue to be everything WE need to be for our community.

And with that, taking a hard look at what I’ve been doing and asking if I should be doing them just because “that’s how I’ve been doing it for years.”

I went through many aspects of the business and found myself getting really stuck on certain functions that frankly, take a lot of time for me to do, and that time may be better well spent on other functions.

This podcast was one of them.

But, ultimately, I’ve decided that we will switch to a bi-weekly show. Listen to this episode to learn more about this change.

#320: Two things for 2024

Happy 2024!

Oh, all those even numbers make me so happy!

As we take our first steps into this new year, I’ve got TWO things that I’ve decided to focus on this year. And I’m boiling this down to a simple message…
