The Self Care Series: Celebrating You!!

The Balance of Being in Charge

What are some tools or strategies that you use when you are feeling like someone else is trying to control you? Or maybe they aren't even trying but you give up what you want to accommodate them? Whether its to keep the peace or to be nice or because you decide that what they want is more important than what you want, you are still giving up your agency for them. Here is a way to balance it all.

Your Personal Constitution

All of the little decisions that we make everyday- big ones, little ones: they can sometimes lead to decision fatigue. We are going to talk about a personal document that you can create that can cut through all of the chaos. What if you had a guiding tool that made your decisions for you ahead of time by knowing which options beat out other options because they aligned with your values. It's a little shortcut to a lighter brain-load in your every day life.

One Good Decision Leads to Another

Did you ever wish that it felt easier to say 'yes' to yourself for those decisions when you WISH that you would decide to do something a certain way for yourself, but you just keep on deciding the other way. Maybe you don't go exercise. Or you keep on giving in to your kids when they whine. Or you say yes- you will go to the event when you don't want to. If there was a hack to make it easier, then you could practice it until even the big decisions felt better to make. Well, there IS a hack and you will learn it today in this episode.

More Than the After Photo

When we picture ourself achieving a goal that we have set for ourselves, how many times do we put ourselves into that scenario in our mind and imagine us as confident, happy, and no longer struggling with any challenges are problems. It sounds nice, but is it realistic? And what does that mean for how we are thinking about ourselves right now? Come and discover the reasons why we deserve our own respect right now.

What is Sisu?

There is a concept that comes from Finland called Sisu. We are going to explore what this concept is and how it can give you a different mindset in your daily life. The result will be clearing out some of the mental load that we carry in our brain to remember to get tasks done. If you find that you put a lot of things off until later on, then this is the episode for you.
