#80 with Just Em: On compassion, on "being pretty", on getting unstuck, on LIFE.
A solo episode with Em on feeling all the things, gratitude, and books we are loving.
[2:56] Supporting other women & Mary Magdalen
"Love yourself, others, and every situation no matter what the outward appearances may be. I'm not what most people think, yet defend myself would be to sink to a lower level than I feel comfortable with. I am one with the divine, just as you are, and it is here that I choose to reside. The lower levels of human bickering, judgement, and chaos are just that - lower levels."
[8:00] From the Many Moons books, 16 ways to get unstuck
"I learn by doing. I learn by doing. I learn by doing. I learn by doing. I'm doing it."
"Time is a spiral, not a line. I honor my current cycle of... fill in the blank."
" Do some things that are invisible to everyone but you every day for weeks. Notice if there are any shifts in any ways as a result of these actions."
[13:24] Girls Inc. and #theprettyconversation

7:44 100 over 1 Balance Formula
There is no such thing as work life balance and how being obsessed creates success
“If you put all of your energy, 100% of your energy and focus into one thing at a time, what most people will realize is that they will get so much done.
16:50 Getting focused and creating your own lane
Focus of the day and setting intentions

32:35 The Greater the Resistance, The Greater the Growth
Being grateful for the negative experiences
“When I'm covering up the bad stuff, I'm covering up also that passion in between cause it's not allowing you to really share my truth and my authenticity with people.”

Owner of Growwithenneagram.com
“Studying enneagrams has been the most profound path of growth in my life.”
16:00 What Exactly Are Enneagrams And How Do They Work?
The enneagram is a marriage between the search for what is true in reality, and the depth of who we are and why we are here.”
The best ways to figure out your own enneagram

When they get into trouble: Can be a little bossy or dominating
31:30 Defining the Enneagram: 9
The type that likes to be “behind the scenes” by supporting others and not causing trouble and creating conflict
When they are confronted with challenges: Can be known to disappear a little and withdraw
33:00 Defining the Enneagram: 1
The responsible one who provides a world of knowledge and useful advice to others
This person seems to always know the right thing to do but can be too critical of themselves and others

49:00 Defining the Enneagram: 6
