AP 724: Confessions of Former MLM Girls: Shame, Sales, and Sisterhood || More Personal Preview

In a conversation that originally aired on my private podcast feed, I spoke with my podcast manager, Taylor, about our personal experiences with multi-level marketing (MLM) companies. We delved into the icky factor of being approached by acquaintances with business propositions and the wider implications of these ventures. While these experiences did provide some social benefits and occasional income, they also left a cringey aftertaste. Despite the mixed feelings, I don't regret my forays into MLMs. They taught me a lot about sales, personal value, and authenticity. I've grown since then, understanding the importance of being true to myself and my audience. If you're curious to learn more about this subject make sure to check out my most recent deep dive!

AP 722: Facing a Career Crossroads: How to Control What You Can in the Face of Uncertainty || Coaching Call with Sheila

In a recent coaching call with Sheila we explored the challenges she faces at a career crossroads. After overcoming cancer, Sheila is determined to return to work part-time, yet faces employer resistance to her accommodations. Together, we addressed her fears of ageism and the struggle to find fulfilling, part-time work. Sheila's journey illustrates the power of letting fears inform wise actions without controlling us. By preparing for age bias and embracing her teaching passion, she's opening herself to new opportunities. In moments of reflection, I encouraged Sheila to ask: "Am I doing what I can? Can I be proud of myself?" This approach helps transform fear into possibility, and can inspire you, too, to confidently navigate personal crossroads and assert your worth.

AP 721: Look for the Glimmers || Growth Spurt

The start of high school was a major leap for my daughter with special needs, magnified by her transition from a charter school. We both faced heightened anxieties about fitting in and managing sensory challenges. Our preparation included school visits and crafting a mental touchstone for her: to look for glimmers of light amongst potential darkness, akin to stars in a big, open night sky. If you're navigating your own tough transitions, remember that seeking glimmers can be a powerful tool. Whether it's finding brief moments of support from friends, appreciating a compliment, or small personal victories, these glimmers can help guide you through. Thank you for being part of this collective progress, and may you find your own glimmers in the midst of challenges.
