Finding Me podcast

Brooke's journey to understand she was enough, that she could show up as she is and there would be a place for her in the performing arts is nothing short of inspiring. She overcomes anorexia, feelings of depression and guilt to ultimately get to a place where she allows herself to open up to new ways of learning, new ways of viewing her body, new ways of viewing herself on stage and new ways of v...

Carolina's journey is so inspiring to me because it takes a severe health issue for her to realize she wasn't listening to all parts of her self. Rather than fighting the different sides she opens herself up to the possibility of bringing them together and, as a result, her health problems have disappeared and she's feeling energized and excited to be following both her head and her heart and help...

I love Jane's story and how she becomes aware of getting caught up in achieving, achieving the status of a Silicon Valley tech leader. As she puts it, she was "do, do, doing" - a nose to the grindstone lifestyle - in order to silence her inner critic who told her she wasn't smart enough because she's only from a small mining town and she failed to get into Oxford University. I felt inspired by Jan...

Kim felt for a long time she was a failure. She failed the Law Bar exam multiple times and because she couldn't practice as a lawyer she took paralegal and administrative roles in which she felt shame. Kim's story is inspiring because after such a long struggle in law she finally allows herself to let go of traditional messages of what a career should look like and explore a new and unknown path....

I can relate so well to Katie's story because she, like me, assumed for a long time everyone else had the answers for her. In her role in the fashion industry she accepts praise for never saying 'no', staying late, putting work ahead of all else and trusts that her bosses know what is best for her even though it doesn't feel right and her body rebels in the form of terrible fatigue. I love how Kat...

It took severe anxiety and getting laid off for Mary to finally rethink her career and to start to figure out what makes her tick and gets her excited. I love how she talks about how slow the journey has been. It doesn't happen overnight. It takes time to think about it, to start, to experiment, to tweak. It takes time. Mary is learning to be accepting of this time and to be accepting of herself....

Heather is a self-professed people pleaser which I can relate to on a very deep level. She got a degree in Engineering because she thought her family would approve and she married a man despite there being red flags around his behaviour and what was acceptable to her. In essence she pretended to be someone she wasn't for years.   What is so inspiring about Heather's story is the bravery she demons...

My conversation with Elizabeth is so inspiring because she shares a time in her life when she was losing herself. She was approaching 50 and she was feeling stagnant in her career - she wasn't getting the jobs she wanted and she felt an intense jealousy and envy towards her peers. She opens up about her fears: fear of not being enough, fear of not being love-able and how those fears manifested int...
