“Straight Talking” is a perfect word for how Allen runs his podcast. Plus, I have never laughed so much in an interview. Good stuff. We’re straight talking perfectionism, how it develops, and the impact of having more compassion for ourselves. We share some great advice with how to deal with that inner critic.

Chelsea and I have so many of the same thoughts about how to love ourselves more. It was such a treat to talk about self-love with her.

We explore:

-What is looks like to hinge your self-worth on something outside of you – like a man’s love or your career progress.

-How sourcing self-worth externally makes it fragile.

-Self-love happens on a spectrum. Simply accepting that you will always be imperfect, without making it a big deal, is a great place to start.

-4 concrete tools for quieting the self-critical voices in your head.

Gen Angela and I had a great talk! We discussed what happens when we compare ourselves and how it affects us. We also explored how we can change the way in which we speak to ourselves and why this matters.

* Identifying when you are in that space of being lost

If there is one topic that is getting more attention in the field of Psychology than anything else right now it is self-compassion. Self-compassion is our ability to relate to ourselves with kindness and without judgement, even when things have gone wrong.

During my conversation with Dr. April Seifert, we talk about the critical importance of developing self-compassion, the brain science behind its power, and practical ways to get started.

Starting a private practice can be daunting. Oftentimes we only see the highlight reel in business – the successes. We see the finished products. But we don’t see all of the other stuff it takes to get there – the late nights, the mindset struggles, the fear, the finances. And not everyone is completely honest about the highs and lows of the process. But we are. And in this episode we get real with you on what it really takes to be successful in business as a healer.
