All Things Authentic

What expectations have you felt the weight off? There are many expectations that we are surrounded by that have huge impacts on our lives.
This week, I am joined by Andra Dediu, and we discuss the impact of societal and familial expectations, but also the expectations we place on ourselves. Because of the impacts on the self, there is some healing that we need to release these expectations.
Join in on this conversation as Andra shares ways in which we can heal and step into our whole and authentic selves.

Oh perfectionism, our own worst enemy! How does perfectionism show up in your life?
Join me for part 2 with Amy Green Smith as we discuss perfectionism in detail: how it shows up, why it may exist, and most importantly, how do we get rid of this desire? The good news is, perfection doesn’t exist, but the bad news is, most of us do not accept that as the truth! Tune in now so we can learn ways to accept this for ourselves.
