In this episode, I give discomfort a much needed rebrand. We’re so used to viewing discomfort as a feeling to avoid, and as an indicator that we must be doing something wrong.

Nobody teaches us how to actually feel an emotion in our body. We resist it, we avoid it, we react to it by overeating, drinking alcohol, taking drugs, spending money or other means of escape.

As women we have been conditioned to doubt ourselves, second guess and constantly default to others for guidance.

We’re all too familiar with the sociopolitical glass ceiling holding people back based on their gender, race, age, disability and more.

Most of us have tried and failed to achieve work-life balance at the expense of our health and interpersonal relationships.

We all have those days where we just can’t bring ourselves to be productive.

We’ve all experienced confirmation bias. It’s the tendency to search for, interpret and favor information that confirms our prior beliefs or values. Think back to that one teacher you felt was hard on you, or a colleague who always took credit for your work, or the in-law who always undermined you at family gatherings. It’s true that bad actors exi…

For most of us success is never a fluke. Its building blocks are the decisions, habits and mindsets that help us crystalize a vision and then break it down into smaller goals, and then break those goals down into actionable steps.
