We are hard wired for community and wanting to fit in but how does that impact your unique voice and contribution your desire to make in the world? If you weren't worried about being judged what risks would you take? What creative expression would you put out into the world? What would you say or do differently? Social media seems to be training people to do the things that meet the algorithms metric system and contributing or even fostering a sea of sameness. But we aren't computers and algorithms. We are literally the expression of a creative and powerful force. So, this in an invitation as much to myself as to anyone who resonates with this message to step more into your true self. You have a voice. You have the right to express that voice and to shine like the stars. I hope you'll tune and that we can continue this conversation. Would love the hear your thoughts.

She will discuss when anxiety can be beneficial and what it looks like when it accumulates and hits a tipping point so you know when to seek out help. We also discuss it through the lens of what my guests calls a culture of "never enough" which makes us question: "Am I doing enough? Have I achieved enough? Am I pretty enough? Am I good enough? The root being feeling of "Am I enough?" Perfectionism is a way for anxiety to play itself out and creates shame. Not being worthy and not feeling enough. *This interview is for informational and entertainment purposes only and is not intended to replace your relationship with your doctor or trusted healthcare providers.*
