Innervation: Ep17 Jealousy
Tuesday Oct 13, 2020
Tuesday Oct 13, 2020
Jealousy is a waste of one's own time and energy, because it means you are comparing yourself to someone else, believing that you lack something others have. Instead, focus on the gifts you do have and work on obtaining and achieving what you think you need. Everyone is on their own individual life journey, be happy for others, and you will be happy for yourself. I've also experienced that when I'm happy for myself, I am also happy for others too!

Innervation: Ep 16 Being Good Enough
Tuesday Oct 06, 2020
Tuesday Oct 06, 2020
The pursuit of being good enough can occupy most of our time and attention. Getting into a headspace where we realise that we are already enough and that ambition is something seperate to that, kept me puzzled for many years through my studies, and still baffles me today. Being good enough should be a baseline state, but it is a concept that often gets confused with goals and objectives in life. I take a look at this, on this episode, to try to figure out how to deal with it..

Wednesday Sep 02, 2020
Wednesday Sep 02, 2020
Being judgemental doesn't feel good. Placing yourself either above or below people makes you feel either superior or inferior and neither of those things lead to any form of long term inner contentment. I take on board the perspectives of some epic women on this subject, ultimately concluding that developing compassion and kindness for yourself and others, is the key to happiness.

Innervation: Ep 10 Gratitude
Tuesday Aug 25, 2020
Tuesday Aug 25, 2020
Whenever I'm feeling a bit low or wobbly, if I write a gratitude list, it changes how I feel. I always start the list intending to write just 10 things, but those ten things leads to so many more. By the time I'm finished, I feel empowered, strong and hopeful. I discuss gratitude in this episode and we hear from a few women who use gratitude in their lives too. It's a serious game changer for anyone who finds life a little overwhelming at times!

Empowerment - what is it? How do you get it? What does it feel like? In this episode we hear from several empowered women, to find out their perspectives on the subject. I'd love to feel empowered on a permanent basis, but sadly, it's not so easy. Instead, I listen to people who have developed their own strategies for staying strong and resilient, no matter what is thrown at them.
