We're constantly telling ourselves stories about what's happening in our lives, our relationships, our work, and the world around us. And while some of these stories may be true, many are based on fear, assumptions, and incomplete information. On this episode, I talk about why we tend to fill in the blanks in disempowering ways, especially during times of uncertainty, and how these stories can impact how we feel and how we show up. I also share some simple ways we can separate facts from the stories we're telling ourselves and consciously create narratives that are more accurate, compassionate, and empowering.

It's easy for whatever is happening right in front of us, especially when it's stressful, frustrating, or scary, to feel bigger than it actually is. On this episode, I talk about the importance of keeping things in perspective and learning to "right-size" the situations we're dealing with. I also discuss how we can take the challenges in our lives seriously without allowing them to consume us, and share some simple ways to give the things we're facing the appropriate amount of attention, energy, and care.

We're living through a time of significant change, uncertainty, and disruption, which makes it easy to feel overwhelmed or reactive. On this episode, I explore the importance of staying grounded and paying attention to what's actually happening, instead of simply defaulting to our usual patterns. I also discuss how asking, "What does this moment require from me?" or "What does this moment require from us?" can help us show up more effectively in our relationships, our work, our teams, and our lives.
