055 Softening Isn't Stupidity

05/03/23 • 16 min

Connecting The Dots - Because despite appearances, the dots are not placed at random.

Have you ever been told that in order to survive and get on in this world, you need to develop a thick skin?
Maybe you've been led to believe that softness is weakness (and not in a good way), and that to be soft is to be less-than.
Well I don't think so!
What if, in order to grow into our creativity and our relationships with more freedom, softness was the way forward?
Join me today as I explore why I don't think that the process of softening isn't stupidity.
In today's episode I reference Braving The Wilderness by Brené Brown, a great book, well worth reading.

054 - Embracing the Stop/Start

How often do you find that you have big plans or ideas, but then fail to be able to execute them because of... well... Life?
Perhaps you long to fulfill a big project, but it's slow going due to ongoing health needs, or family commitments or because you simply cannot maintain the pace?
You are not alone.
This is where embracing the 'Stop/Start' way of pursuing what matters will get you further than nowhere. Because even showing up in small ways, as and when you can, is better than not showing up at all!
Allow me to encourage you to embrace where you are right now with kindness, and allow you to see that it won't render you obsolete.

056 It's Been A Minute! Podcast Update

Hi there you lovely listeners!
So for those of you who have been listening a while, you may have noticed the sporadic output and the near radio silence for over a year.
Burnout, life and moving have played a huge part in that, so here is a slightly shorter episode filling you in on the plan going forward.
Thank you for sticking with me.
