Say It Out Loud with Vasavi Kumar

“I can’t go on camera, I’m an introvert.” “I’m just not good on camera. Instagram live isn’t for me.” “I hate being on camera. I’m just not as confident as [insert whatever name you want to pull out of your butt here], so there’s no point in trying.” When it comes to showing up on camera, I 👏🏽 have 👏🏽 heard 👏🏽 it 👏🏽 all 👏🏽 The truth is, they’re all lies. They feel real and I’m all about...

We like to believe that confidence is some natural ability charismatic people have. It’s not. It does come with time and practice, but too often we forget that there are multiple layers to confidence that we can CHOOSE to improve to make showing up on camera easier. Don’t worry, I’m not going to tell you to take a speech class like they do in college. No, in today’s episode of the Being Human podc...

I held on to the title “therapist” for so long, I ignored what my soul was actually telling me to lean into. From my ego clutching to the MSW after my name to throwing around my Ivy League education like it was a dart and I was hoping it would help me hit my mark, my labels kept me… small. I’m sure you have a few of those, too. (Like, “The Good Girl” or “Doctor.”) Sometimes those accomplishments (...

Have you ever worked to heal something in your life, but years later it keeps coming up? It’s easy to say “well you just need to work more on it,” but I want to go a bit deeper into that. If you find yourself repeating patterns (and you’ve done a ton of work on it), have you considered the forgiveness aspect of it? Forgiveness is one of the most difficult things we face within our relationships, b...

It is not easy to juggle it all - especially when the things that you’re doing are not even required. Your soul feels it. Your body feels it. And your brain likes to try to convince you that you have to do certain things (as if you signed some kind of life contract) to fit the role you’re playing. If you’re in a crazy mommy fog (or even wife fog) and you say to yourself, “I wish I could do what sh...

It’s easy for us to fall into the “safe money” trap - where we choose work that fuels our bank accounts, while sacrificing our desire for work that truly speaks to our souls. We think we can’t have both. Sound familiar? I thought so, which is why I brought Indira Shakti onto my podcast to talk about how she’s shifting into “soul money” status. Indira is an OBM that helps entrepreneurs scale and gr...

If there is ONE thing we all have in common it’s this: On some level we believe who we are is not enough. Now you can try to convince me or yourself otherwise, but I bet I can dig deep enough that most of your struggles, stresses, trials and tribulations come down to not feeling good enough. Listen, I say this with so much love: We have got to heal that sh*t otherwise we’ll never have a fulfilling...

We all have our vices that affect our health and how we experience the world. Smoking. Hard drugs. Alcohol. Coffee. Sugar. ….and some of the sneakiest ones are those we are handed to us by our doctors. The opioid addiction has gotten a lot of attention over the last few years, but as more and more of us lean into our authenticity and crave a fulfilling life, we forget to talk about some of the pre...

Today’s episode of The Being Human Podcast I’m talking with Susanna Medrano, an amazing friend and client of mine who has been in sales for a very long time.

When we think of selling, it’s often a sleazy car salesman who jus...

Let’s talk about sex, baby. Sex and selling that is. On today’s episode of the Being Human Podcast, I’m showing you exactly how something that is quite familiar to us - ahem yet something we often don’t talk about in business - is directly related to how well you sell. We make sales a big, complicated, often messy and misunderstood process, but sales can be as good and easy as sex when you know ho...

This episode of The Being Human Podcast is about one of the core things we, as entrepreneurs, need to be successful in our lives - to know yourself.
