If there is one thing you take away from this episode, please let it be that by not knowing how to or when to stand up for yourself, you are only hurting yourself... read that again.

Episode 48 - Leave Your Ego at The Door: the need to always be right
Honest Tribe, welcome back! In episode 48 we're digging into all things "ego". From a very young age, we’re conditioned to see the effects of being right vs. wrong. I.e our educational system-- it's very black and white. As we know, life really isn't like that majority of the time. When it comes to your ego and the need to always be right, ask yourself this one question: would you rather be right or would you rather be happy? Remember, your ego is a direct reflection on how you feel about yourself.

Episode 43 - Give yourself the space to go at your pace
Happy Wednesday, Honest Tribe! Today's all about the importance of leaning into your difficult situation and giving yourself the space to grieve, learn & grow. We live in a society where we are always looking for the quick fix. Something that might make us feel good temporarily, but it's not going to benefit you long term. Always remember that the bigger the situation/traumatic experience, the more space and time you have to allow yourself to go through it. Grow through what you go through.
