  • OK Podsters, today we are diving headfirst into optimism and reinvention.

    Picture this: you, yes, YOU, as the architect of your future, armed with nothing more than the belief that you DESERVE the life you are seeking and a little dash of courage, ready to create that life that says to the world, "I'm here, and I'm fantastic!"

    Let's cut to the chase. Age, background, limiting beliefs, these are barriers (created by you, by the way) simply waiting to be bulldozed by your determination. That's right, whether you're fresh out of college or seasoned like a fine cabernet, the power to reinvent yourself is available to you.

    ON TWO CONDITIONS:

    1: You believe that you can reinvent yourself at any time.

    2: You are willing to invest the time and you have the chops to go after it.

    Thatā€™s right, Podsters, stepping into the life you know is out there for you is not only about desire and determination. You MUST tap into some of that mindset magic. Our minds will seek what we think, confirmation bias to its core. What you believe WILL shape your reality as long as you are willing to put the work into making it happen.

    What vision do you have for your future?

    Think of this like a crystal ball that shapes reality itself. Believe in the possibilities, and watch as the universe conspires in your favor.

    Remember, you're not just curating a future; you're crafting a legacy that'll make heads turn and jaws drop.

  • Hey, Podsters! Today we are talking about a topic that hits close to home for many of us: BURNOUT.

    Now, before you roll your eyes and think, "I've heard it all before," you might want to stick around because you could be in the middle or approaching burnout, and thinking youā€™re just tired.

    Still doubtful? Would you be shocked if I told you nearly 50% of women reported experiencing burnout even BEFORE the pandemic?

    Hereā€™s why Iā€™m bringing this topic to you today and itā€™s still a little raw for me. A few weeks back, I hit a rough patch. Despite my usual ā€œglass half fullā€ optimism - I found myself feeling drained, unable to catch up on my energy and walking around with a consistent case of the blahs. Eventually I realized that I wasnā€™t simply tired or lacking vitamin D.

    I was burnt out.

    And if it happened to me, I know it's happening to others too.

    Now, burnout isn't just about feeling tired or overworked. It could show up for you as exhaustion, overwhelm, cynicism, lack of motivation, or detachment from the things that used to bring us joy. Perhaps all at the same time. Yikes.

    What many people like us donā€™t realize as we ā€œpower throughā€ is that is left unaddressed, burnout can last weeks, months and even years.

    So buckle up - as itā€™s time to check yourself before you wreck yourself!

    The best way to deal with burnout is to avoid it in the first place and here are three things you can do now to avoid or bring f yourself out of this undesirable state of being.

    Boundaries. At work, with clients, at home or wherever you may be: setting clear boundaries is the key. Learn to say no when necessary and prioritize your well-being. Listen in today for real life scripts.

    Physical self-care. This is not about facials and pedicures. It's about drinking water, getting enough rest, and moving your body. Doing what you know works for you physically.

    Connection. Whether it's reaching out to a friend, a partner, or a therapist, connecting with another person to let them know whatā€™s going on is not only suggested, itā€™s necessary.

    So Podsters, if you're feeling the burn, know that you're not alone. With the right tools and support, you can overcome burnout and thrive once again.

    Spring is hereā€”a perfect time for a reset, renewal and self-care.

    Whoā€™s with me?

  • Are you ready to step into the spotlight and the power of your personal style?

    Today we're diving into the transformative power of personal style. Gone are the days when fashion was just about looking good. Now, your style is your super-power and a tool to unlock your confidence, live your brand and engineer your own success.

    ā€œWhen my clothes donā€™t fit, I feel like I donā€™t fitā€. Nancy

    Thereā€™re nothing more uncomfortable than feeling like you donā€™t fit. Style is not a size and in a world where conformity overshadows individuality, authenticity is the game changer. When you feel comfortable and confident in what you wear, you exude your unique magnetic energy that captivates everyone around you. By staying true to yourself and your personal brand, you become unforgettable, leaving a lasting impression wherever you go.

    You are your brand. Your brand is you. Your brand never sleeps. It's not just about the clothes you wear but also how you carry yourself and the message you convey to the world. On the plane, in line for coffee, picking up your kids ā€“ every day you create your own opportunity when you show up on brand, and today we should you how to align your personal style with your brand identity.

    Get ready to unleash your inner style icon and become the unforgettable force you were meant to be.

    It's time to step into the spotlight, Podsters and live your truth, make a statement, and leave a lasting impression that resonates long after you're gone.

    Let's get styled, Podsters!

  • I got hit with a sucker punch, Podsters and hereā€™s what happened.

    I threw a curveball at a trusted colleague by asking him to share the unfiltered truth with me about how Iā€™m perceived by a specific group of people.

    I asked him, thinking that I knew the answer. Hey, Iā€™m self-aware. I know my faults; I know where I need to improve and Iā€™m already working on myself! Lucky for me, my buddy didn't sugarcoat it. And while his response was not what I was expecting, he did me a huge favor by giving it to me straight. I now know exactly what Iā€™m facing as I work towards changing these perceptions.

    Imagine if I hadn't asked.

    I could've been living in la-la land, thinking everything's great, my message is crystal clear, people know who I am and continuing on with that same narrative. While out there, people were making assumptions about me and my messaging was NOT resonating. Ouch.

    Think about your career and your goals. Are you skipping the uncomfortable feedback? Are you assuming (like I did) that youā€™ve been doing this so long, people MUST know the real you?

    IGNORING YOUR BLIND SPOTS IS A CAREER DERAILER.

    When you receive feedback thatā€™s hard to hear or that you werenā€™t expecting ā€“ two things can happen. One, you hear a real truth and you can then own it, address it, and come back stronger.

    Or two, what youā€™re hearing is a perception and they are seeing you through their own reality. Their truth. Which may be very different than yours. Manage that perception, and you're in the clear. But remember, their perception is their reality, not necessarily yours.

    Not so easy. Hereā€™s how you can overcome a perception:

    Debunk the idea or have an open conversation. Thoughtfully and unemotionally address the assumptions (even if they are incorrect) and if someone's dodging your olive branch, donā€™t stress. You made the effort. You took the high road. And if and when that negative feedback resurfaces - you can remain confident in who you are because you know you did the right thing.

    Bottom line? Embrace the feedback, whether it's legit or not, because knowing how people perceive you is your golden ticket to accessing your next level. No one grows by only looking at the good things ā€“ we grow by understanding and embracing our imperfections.

  • Big news, Podsters! Today Iā€™m sharing my Career Commandments ā€“ the three things I wish I knew (or had listened to) that would have saved me a lot of time, energy and angst.

    BUT! Before we dive in ā€“ itā€™s time to celebrate together! Together we have grown our Unmute Yourself community and hit a major podcast milestone ā€“ we hit 10,000 downloads! This is a huge deal Podsters because this means we have affected the life and career of over 10,000 listeners! I am truly humbled and grateful for all the shares, the listens and the support. Keep the comments and suggestions coming!

    Now on to todayā€™s podcast.

    Think about all the time, money, and energy invested youā€™ve invested in your career. Think about all the times you threw up your hands and said ā€œI JUST WISH SOMEONE WOULD GIVE ME THE PLAYBOOK!ā€.

    Iā€™ve got you! Today Iā€™m sharing the top three career tidbits which I think are most important to catapult you and your career.

    #1 - The best candidate does not always get the job. Hard to hear and also true. You know this happens and maybe itā€™s even happened to you. The candidate who gets the job has less experience, less time with the company, less all the things. And yet ā€“ they get the job. Today Iā€™m telling you why this happens, how this happens and most important ā€“ how you can stop this from happening.

    #2 - Titles and salary matter. I know how this sounds, Podsters and I personally have never chased either. What Iā€™m sharing here is that your salary should be commensurate with how YOU feel you are valued in the role. If you are in a space where money isnā€™t as important as what you are actually doing all day ā€“ great! I am suggesting here that you make sure that you feel you feel valued in the role and for many people, this means money or a title.

    As for the title ā€“ also an area I have never been too concerned ā€“ unless the title will help you to open doors. There truth here is that there are many Posters organizations where the ā€œbiggerā€ title gets more resources and support. So, if this is your environment, I suggest in this case that the title DOES matter. Again, I go back to feeling valued. Are you doing the work of three people, continuously taking on more, and staying the same in terms of salary and title? If you arenā€™t feeling good about this ā€“ itā€™s time to listen to your instincts.

    #3 ā€“ You have GOT to get feedback from people who donā€™t like you. Hereā€™s why: If there are people out there who donā€™t want to work with you, itā€™s highly probable that they are making this known. And when your name comes up for a project or assignment ā€“ you want to be considered no matter WHO is on the team.

    Iā€™m not suggesting that you be fake, or drink the Kool-Aid ā€“ Iā€™m saying that the more you know about your blind spots, the more you can overcome these and work with anyone. And THAT is how you want to be known. Itā€™s uncomfortable and itā€™s also the best kind of feedback you can receive. out a trusted advisor or mentor who will give it to you straight. Even better ā€“ talk to the person with whom you are having conflict to figure out a way to work together. I promise you this is how you win.

    Podsters, these three Career Commandments (and the bonus one as well!) changed the trajectory of my career and they can change yours too.

    I believe in you!

  • Podsters ā€“ we are bringing the heat today because I'm fired up about a common misconception I keep hearing. It's the whole "I can't change careers because I'll have to take a pay cut" misunderstanding.

    You know how this goes: you've worked really hard, you make made good money, and you're not about to have to ā€œstart overā€ after all of this hard work and sacrifice.

    Well, I'm here to tell you ā€“ YOU DO NOT HAVE TO START OVER.

    I'm baffled by the number of people who think changing careers means an automatic pay cut. Or an automatic demotion. Or an automatic ā€œstart all overā€. Where does this even come from?

    You don't have to start over. Your skills are transferable. And in fact, this new perspective if youā€™re coming from another field may even be a competitive advantage. \

    So, let's debunk the myth that changing careers means losing money. This is simply not true.

    Take your strengths, your top three, and understand that these strengths ā€“ your greatest contribution to your CURRENT role is precisely your ticket to that new gig.

    WITHOUT LOSING A DIME.

    Hereā€™s an example: Letā€™s say your jam is ā€œbuilding relationshipsā€. Youā€™re the best. A pro. People LOVE opening up to you and itā€™s helped you tremendously in your career.

    Awesome. That skill is pure gold in any industry. Whether it's sales, human resources, or project management, it's about human connection, and every company, boss and hiring manager wants more human connection.

    And if youā€™re worried about losing benefits when taking that side hustle full-time, let's clear this up as well. A decent healthcare plan can be procured for around $1k per month and in some cases, even less. So do the math, factor in an additional 12k you will need in your business plan and suddenly, it's not as daunting as you think.

    So, Podsters, as we head into job-seeking season, remember this, YOUR SKILLS are your CURRENCY, and you don't have to settle for less.

    Don't let assumptions and fears keep you in a place you know you donā€™t belong.

    Letā€™s DO THIS!

  • Hey Podsters - you know that feeling, when youā€™re hitting it on all cylinders, life is good (on paper) and still something feels off? Or, when you think you SHOULD be? Should be doing, thinking, feeling, acting a certain way ā€“ and youā€™re simply not?

    When this feeling comes and goes, (and hopefully it goes more than it shows up) ā€“ the cause could simply be that youā€™re in a new season of your life.

    Weā€™re not talking about seasons like spring summer and fall ā€“ weā€™re talking about the ebbs and flows of our lives. Expectations, values, priorities ā€“ these all change! Of course they change. They change as WE change.

    Holding on to who you used to be, what those priorities were in the past, old patterns, beliefs and thoughts ā€“ this is what creates that uneasy feeling when everything is ā€œfineā€.

    And today, my guest, Erin Gerner, corporate-lawyer-turned-advocate-for-women-in-law is dishing out golden nuggets on what it takes to show up for yourself through every season.

    Today we take a look at expectations and share with you how to break free of the should and the shame.

    You know we are all about the power of words here at Unmute Yourself. So letā€™s skip the "shoulds" and lean into "coulds," "would like tos," and "prefers." Because, let's face it, when "should" shows up, she usually brings along her faithful sidekick - shame.

    Itā€™s time Podsters. Time to align our careers with our core values.

    So, if you're ready to let go of the guilt, cozy up to your current season, and explore the benefits of community, join us as we share what it takes to be a real POWERHOUSE in your life.

    Andā€¦how one decision can change your whole life.

  • Love is in the air, am I right Podsters? Valentine's Day vibes are strong and todayā€™s episode is a love letter from me to you, about you and for YOU.

    Itā€™s not surprising thereā€™s a special place in my heart for Galentineā€™s Day; for someone whose life work is celebrating and empowering women thereā€™s not much better than a holiday where women celebrate women!

    And also, Valentine's Day can be tricky for many of us: solo or partnered up ā€“ with all of this love coming at us, I canā€™t help but think about how we are loving OURSELVES. How we are speaking to ourselves, about ourselves. How we are filling our own cup.

    Itā€™s easy to feel depleted and to run on empty ā€“ we all do it. In todayā€™s episode I talk about the things I do to make sure Iā€™m showing up for myself.

    Managing my accessibility (hello, boundaries), knowing and DOING what works in my daily routines, and being super vigilant about over-extending myself are three of the ways I honor and commit to myself.

    Letā€™s be honest here, Podsters. At the end of the day, you are all youā€™ve got. Sure, you have friends, a family, maybe youā€™re partnered up or playing the field. Today isnā€™t as much about loving those AROUND you ā€“ itā€™s about how youā€™re showing up for yourself. You are the only one who is guaranteed to show up for you. So, are you?

    Podsters, this is my Valentineā€™s wish for you: take care of yourselves, be kind to yourself, make sure you are saving time and energy for yourself, and stay tuned for more powerful episodes and insights.

    Peace, love, and see you next week!

  • 46% of women are unpleasantly surprised when they take a look at their finances at home. Thatā€™s almost HALF OF US, Podsters. And these are the very same women who lead teams, create budgets, analyze finances as part of their job and make major financial decisions at work. Why do these women then turn over all of the financial planning and decision-making at home? And single women, who are the only person responsible for their financial well-being, arenā€™t much better.

    This changes today. Today Iā€™m talking with Micheala Herlihy ā€“a financial planning powerhouse who runs an all-female financial services firm and who is here to give it to us straight.

    Spoiler alert: She's phenomenal.

    This conversation with Michaela left me shook. The discussion nudged me to up my financial game, hold myself accountable, and approach my own marital and financial dynamics with a fresh perspective. Even if you're navigating your finances solo, we have tools tailored for you too!

    Michaela shows us how to make managing our finances enjoyable, and dare I sayā€¦ fun? She spills the tea on tips and tactics, emphasizing the importance of dedicating a few minutes or a night to understanding your financial situation and to making this process NOT painful. Or, to approach this process with EASE.

    Trust me, this episode is a game-changer.

    Are you ready to start putting finance planning dates in your calendar? Create a fun space to talk about this topic that has been made so complicated.

    Podsters, letā€™s dive in and explore the world of women in money.

  • Itā€™s officially the witching hour! Here what I mean by this:

    Every year around this time people start leaving their job in droves. In fact, Iā€™ve had not one, not two, but three people contact me this past week to tell me their news. Theyā€™ve had enough. They canā€™t take it any more and theyā€™re experiencing the classic "take this job and shove it" moment. Anyone familiar with that song?

    In each of these cases- while Iā€™m thrilled that they have made this life changing decision - I know how hard itā€™s going to be for them.

    I know because the #1 thing you can do to soften the landing when you make that long awaited exit - is to put the time in beforehand to work your network.

    Now before you start cringing or get that pit in your stomach, Iā€™m going to ask you to trust me here. There is an art to networking, a word that often triggers people, especially our Podster introverts. Iā€™ve said it before and Iā€™ll say it again:

    NETWORKING DOES NOT HAVE TO FEEL GROSS.

    Itā€™s not about schmoozing with a glass of wine at a party. Itā€™s not about playing golf or back-slapping with the patriarchy.

    You CAN network like a ninja and this CAN be fun.

    When you take my forensic networking approach: strategically assess your network, nurture your relationships NOW rather than when you have an ask, take your time and ditch the spaghetti approach - when you do it this way: you will be locked and loaded with solid leads before you make that country western song your reality.

    Andā€¦ before you start feeling awkward about asking for help, remember what it feels like when someone asks you for to help them on their career journey. Iā€™ll bet youā€™re flattered and eager to assist because we are wired to genuinely like helping others.

    Hereā€™s why laying this foundation BEFORE you leap is so important. And Iā€™m speaking to corporate and entrepreneurs both here. Often times, decisions about who to hire are made before you even step into the room. Networking strategically ensures you're already in the mix when opportunities arise and being a known entity ahead of time?

    GAME CHANGER.

    So how do you start this networking thing without it feeling gross?
    You listen to todays episode and ask me for my ā€œforensic networkingā€ template. I use this with my private clients and Iā€™m ready to spread the love with you today - all you have to do is ask.

    As I look back on my career, I'm so grateful for those who stood by me through the highs and lows. My Personal Board of Directors who supported me, gave it to me straight, helped me course correct and celebrated the big wins. We talk about how to nurture and recruit your Personal Board of Directors on todayā€™s episode, too!

    Wishing you an amazing week and continued success.

    Peace out, podsters!

  • You know those big goals you have that you keep pushing to the next week? Or the next month? Or, who are we kidding ā€“ the next year? The book, the career change, the podcast, starting your side hustle, taking your side hustle to the next level, the new business, the rebranding, your resume ā€“ ALL OF IT. When we think about these big, powerful goals we set for ourselves ā€“ overwhelm kicks in and we end up torpedoing our own success.

    Not today, Podsters! Today Iā€™m talking with business strategist and the most organized person I know ā€“ Kathleen Lawson who has made a career and successful business out of showing people how to bring their vision to life. And specifically, how the 12-week year is your secret sauce for leveling up in all areas of your life.

    "So, where are we with this?" is a question we all need in our lives, especially when powering through those goals and turning our plans into action.

    We dig into the magic of time blocking, not just in your daily grind but in planning your life 12 weeks at a time; scheduling specific tasks within a set timeframe, custom-tailored to your peak energy time frames, and when youā€™re most likely to actually DO THE THING.

    We both love the 12-week year concept and give the side-eye to the traditional annual planning cycle. Kathleen makes a solid case for the practicality of shorter planning periods, throwing the spotlight on the urgency and laser focus these focused, measurable busts of action bring. It's all about adapting to the twists and turns of your own personal life rollercoaster.

    Did you know that the key to overcoming procrastination is simple? Kathleen does and she sums it up in one word. CLARITY.

    Kathleen also reminds us that strategic planning goes beyond just tasks; it's about identifying dependencies, setting priorities, and recognizing that you're the captain of your ship.

    Ready to face obstacles head-on? Kathleen's got the playbook. Plan for potential roadblocks, tackle challenges proactively, and know yourself so you can DO THE THING at work, at home or wherever you wish!

    So, if you're up for the challenge of effective goal-setting, mastering time blocking, and crafting a roadmap to success in your personal and professional life, buckle up, Podsters, this one's epic!

    Letā€™s harness this motivation and DO THE THING together! Iā€™m still accepting applications for my one one-on-one private coaching. Apply here, and youā€™re DONE by spring!

    Application for Q2 1:1 Coaching

    Podsters, weā€™re back and itā€™s GAME TIME! Today we're diving into some real talk about something thatā€™s really been on my mind lately: authenticity.

    This topic struck a chord with you when we first aired in November 2022 and became a fan favorite. With the new year new me energy and everyone buzzing with resolutions, manifestations, and vision boards, I want to make sure we're setting goals that align with who we truly are, not who we think we should be.

    Iā€™m standing here recording this episode, unable to sit down from a treadmill injury, which was the wake-up call I needed to call a time out with myself and have a hard look at what I was doing. Just a few weeks ago I committed to more EASE in my life, so how is pushing myself to injury and trying to do ALL THE THINGS RIGHT NOW anywhere close to EASE?

    Iā€™m sure youā€™re also seeing the endless posts promoting pushing the "new year, new you" narrative. Vision boards, living your best life, yes you can do it if you just sign up for my program, all these posts while possibly true, seemed inauthentic to me. In fact, Iā€™d even call is toxic positivity.

    Whether you're an entrepreneur or part of a corporate structure, making sure your goals, plans and actions align with YOU is the game changer. Your authentic self, not someone elseā€™s vision for you. If something feels off, it's time to reevaluate.

    I invite you to join me in prioritizing authenticity, as being true to ourselves attracts positive energy and like-minded connections. Remember, it's never too late to embrace authenticity and make choices that align with who you truly are.

    Cheers to a genuine and fulfilling 2024, Podsters

    Buckle up, Podsters, I brought Brenda Johnston back for a raw, vulnerable and thought-provoking conversation about how we all tend to get in our own way. How harnessing the power of your mind, your SUBCONCIOUS mind - is often times the difference between thriving and surviving.

    From the company we keep to the energy we bring - isnā€™t it time to reclaim ALL OF it so we can focus on the life we truly want? The life we know we deserve?

    Some may call this selfish - and if thatā€™s what needs to happen in order to curate the life you know you deserve - is that really a bad thing?

    We made sure to tackle the heavy stuff, like dealing with trapped emotional energy and how it messes with our mindset and choices. We get real about setting boundaries and being rigorous about who gets access to our inner circle.

    Spoiler alert: It's totally cool to aim high and dream big without feeling guilty about who or what you are leaving behind.

    Brenda's got some mind-blowing techniques, including muscle testing and diving into the subconscious to identify and release the emotions that are holding you back and we dish on my session with Brenda - which left me pretty shaken (in a good way).

    And here's a wild thought: things don't always have to be a struggle! Weā€™ve got to let that go!

    If you're up for unlocking your limitless potential and exploring the power of your subconscious mind, this episode is for you.

    Strap in and get ready to live your limitless life!

    Happy New Year, Podsters! I'm super pumped to be back. After taking a little break and pre-recording some podcasts, I can honestly say that I missed you. We're back in action with that fresh New Year energy, some cool new ideas, and a bunch of awesome episodes headed your way this January.

    What better way to kick off the New Year on The Unmute Yourself Podcast than to have our amazing OG co-host, Beth, back in the house, talking about something she's an expert in.

    WORDS!

    Not everyone is into choosing a word or words of the year, and that's totally cool. I'm all about waiting for the right mindset. There is no need to stress it. Because, trust me, setting your goals with "jank energy" is just a one-way ticket to resentment.

    Words matter (yeah, I said it first, and I'll keep saying it). We've been all about changing the conversation. And the words you use are powerful.

    AND WHEN YOU USE BOTH OF THESE THINGS (words and vision) TO PROPEL YOU FORWARD: You become unstoppable.

    As we start the new year, let's start attracting the good stuff, building momentum without going off the deep end, and embracing surrender when life throws curveballs. Choosing your word or words of the year is all about setting intentions for the year.

    I'm hyped about this blank canvas called 2024, ready to attract more fun with ease.

    So, Podsters, what's your word for the year?

  • Happy Holidays, Podsters! Do you keep making the same NY resolutions over and over again? Are you wondering why you canā€™t seem to check that ā€œthingā€ off your list and move on?

    The answer may leave you shook and in this weekā€™s episode weā€™re talking about how to OWN YOUR WHY and how this true why if the catalyst for you to finally DO THE THING.

    We have a double header today, Podsters! First I talk about the why that finally propelled me to slow down, a resolution I had been kicking over from year to year to year.

    Then, Iā€™m bringing back one of the most popular episodes of 2023 ā€“ OWN YOUR WHY.

    We only have one life Podsters, and we get to choose how we show up.

  • Hello, Podsters! Itā€™s the most wonderful timeā€¦. of the year. And for some of us itā€™s the most time-consuming, overcommitting, and energy-draining time of the year, too. Itā€™s so easy to overextend and blow off boundaries in pursuit of that people-pleasing itch, especially with the pressure of the holidays.

    Hereā€™s the thing:

    Ever notice what happens when we pour all your energy into others? We get tired, dim our spark, and forget to show up for ourselves.

    Iā€™ve got you, Podsters!

    Hereā€™s what I do when I feel this happening.

    My go-to move for managing my energy is to avoid overcommitting in the first place and hereā€™s how you can too:

    When making plans, or agreeing to give your time to something, think about how you'll THEN, at the actual time of the event, not how you feel at the moment you are being asked.

    Already drowning in holiday happenings and commitments? Hereā€™s how you can take back your life. Itā€™s simple. Cancel. Yes, cancel or postpone.

    Need help with what to say? Try these scripts:

    Ā· ā€œIā€™m overcommitted, and I want to make sure Iā€™m fully focused on you. Can we plan to do this on X date instead?ā€

    Ā· ā€œIā€™m sorry I didnā€™t think this through when I confirmed these plans. Iā€™m not going to be able to make it. Thank you for understanding. ā€œ

    Ā· ā€œIā€™ve been out every night this week and I need time to regroup and refocus. Iā€™d love for you to go to the party without me and I look forward to hearing all about it when you get home!ā€

    When you give away all your energy, you can't show up as your best self. And thatā€™s not fun for anyone.

    So Podsters, are you ready to switch up the conversation at home?
