S2E12 Um episódio em português, plus end of season 2

My friends, on the last episode of season 2 I'm just yapping (in Portuguese!) about shame, discomfort, and some funny stories from back when I was living in Colombia. I also reflected on my main learnings this season from talking to amazing guests with so much valuable content to share. My intent with this podcast is to have honest, useful, adult conversations about life with accountable people, for accountable people. I hope that through these conversations you get inspired, learn something new, or simply realize that just like you and I, every single person is just trying to figure it out. I will see you in a few months and as always, I'm really grateful for your support! *Watch this episode on YouTube with auto-generated captions in English I would love to hear your feedback!

Self-Love Is an Action, Not a Feeling (Weekly Bonus Episode)

In this episode, I reframe self-love as a set of actions and decisions rather than a feeling or something tied to appearance. I outline practical behaviors that in my opinion help build self-love: using kinder self-talk, investing in self-knowledge (including facing uncomfortable truths), and building self-confidence by honoring commitments, being selective with yes and no, not relying on emotions for consistency, and challenging limiting beliefs through small, controlled steps. 04:09 Words Shape Identity 05:17 Know Yourself Deeply 06:33 Build Real Confidence 11:04 Challenge Limiting Beliefs 15:51 Focus Your Attention 16:48 Choose Better Relationships 18:08 Move Your Body Daily 19:15 Actions Create The Feeling

Anna Luiza Barbosa, Oxford MPP student, joins me for a raw conversation about owning your story, trusting your intuition, and why your "non-fancy" background might be the most powerful thing in the room. Over the past decade, Anna has worked across diplomacy, climate policy and sustainable development, holding positions that range from early career roles to leadership in international cooperation. Her professional journey includes working for the British Embassy in Brazil and the UN Alliance of Civilizations, where she drove initiatives that foster dialogue, sustainable growth and climate action.

S2E10 Erika Ituassu: Can Women Have It All?

Ever feel like you're doing everything but somehow still failing at all of it? You're not alone — and you're probably not failing either. In this episode, we sit down with Erika Ribeiro Ituassu, a Brazilian-American attorney, mom, and senior corporate counsel at Workday, who gets honest about what "having it all" actually means — and why our definition of it might be the real problem. We talk about why balance is a verb, not a destination, the "glass balls vs. plastic balls" framework that will change how you prioritize, what strategic neglect really means (and why it's not giving up), the invisible labor women carry, why asking for help is harder than giving it, and how to stop waiting to "arrive" at the life you're already living. Whether you're a new mom questioning your identity, a career woman navigating shifting priorities, or just someone tired of feeling like everyone else has it figured out — this conversation is for you. 01:38 Redefining Having It All04:03 Balance as a Verb11:38 Why It’s Harder for Women14:47 Build and Use Your Village19:23 Asking and Learning to Receive Help22:14 Privilege and Immigrant Perspective30:10 Superwoman Costs and Self Talk33:21 Owning Mistakes and Good Enough36:34 Balancing Priorities and Patience38:04 Calendar Systems for Busy Lives39:41 Final Advice for New Moms Follow us on social media https://www.instagram.com/theadultstableshow Don't forget to subscribe and never miss a new episode!
