Compassionate self-awareness is at the center of our wheel of worth - and for good reason! By being honest about ourselves we can better identify our gifts as well as the things we want to improve and areas of growth. 

We suggest starting the day with a positive self-reflection, accompanied by compassion, and talking to your body in moments of anxiety. Through connecting with oneself, you have the ability to not only understand the world on a more meaningful level, but to make conscious choices about how to act moving forward. 

We end with a homework assignment to help you become more self-accepting. Think of one thing you love about yourself, one thing you are good at, and one thing you bring to the world. Write it down, and share if you're feeling brave. If it is too difficult, start small! Ask for help from a friend or loved one, to show how we can lift each other up in community.

Throughout, we invite you to explore:
1. What if we added compassion to self-awareness? 
2. How can we balance the negative thoughts in our minds with the positives? 
3. How can having self awareness benefit not only ourselves, but our communities?

In our latest podcast episode, we are honored to have global leader and speaker, Daisy Auger-Dominguez, share her insights on creating work environments that thrive on empathy, resilience, and inclusivity.

Throughout our conversation, Daisy, author of Inclusion Revolution, emphasizes the necessity for leaders to embody compassionate courage—a term inspired by Chanel's CEO, Leena Nair's philosophy of putting people at the heart of business operations. This approach is not only humane but also strategic, as it aligns with workers' growing expectations and the need for a supportive culture that fosters trust and confidence within the workforce.

We also delve into Daisy's career journey, examining how being the first, or the only, in various roles shaped her into the leader that she is today. Her experiences underline the powerful influence of supportive managers and inclusive environments in fostering executive growth. Daisy candidly discusses the challenges in creating empowering cultures and how operational hurdles can either invigorate or stifle the human spirit within the workplace.

And of course no conversation with us would be complete with a dive into the importance of self-worth at work. Leadership today is about fostering a culture of self-worth, enhancing team relationships, and making inclusive decisions. Daisy encourages leaders to ask reflective questions that drive strategic planning and action, emphasizing the importance of authenticity and the continuous effort to align our actions with our values.

Anyone keen on the intricacies of embedding DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) into every facet of the employee experience won't want to miss Daisy's valuable perspectives. So join the conversation and discover how balancing courage and compassion leads to exceptional leadership, as well as increased personal resilience and well-being.

Stay in touch with Daisy on her website, LinkedIn, and Instagram. You can also watch her TedTalk and learn more about her book, Inclusion Revolution. Daisy will also be joining us live April 5th on Zoom at noon ET for a deep dive into Embodying Your Worth.

We became friends during Sarah Kelly's active alcoholism. And while we've talked about aspects of her drinking and sobriety,  we've never had a one-on-one conversation of what it was like to live through this time in our friendship. So we decided to do that … and record it.

Sober curious? The Imiloa Institute in Costa Rica is an alcohol-free campus. While it’s not a theme of the retreat, it’s a fun experiment to explore life without alcohol. We’ve still got a couple of spaces open. We hope you will join us!

It's such a powerful tool in each of our self-worth journeys.

The truth is, self-worth thrives in community. It helps us remember other people have been (or currently are) right where we've been. Struggling with similar things and experimenting with different ways to move past those struggles. 

And let’s be honest, while self-worth is discovered inside of us, sometimes a reminder from fellow journeyers that we are worthy helps us to trust that voice inside saying the same thing.

This is what we're discussing today. The importance of community, how to define community, and maybe most important, how to start creating that community of your dream no matter how brave you're feeling.

Throughout our conversation we'll explore:

  • The significance of community in shaping your self-worth journey and personal growth.
  • The power of heart-centered connections for emotional healing and fostering deeper relationships.
  • Online platforms as alternative spaces to find and engage with supportive communities.
  • The art of navigating relationships with self-compassion and understanding individual journeys.
  • Our newest coaching program, Blossom, a transformative experience designed to enhance self-worth through community and connection.

You’re not alone.

In this vulnerable episode, Sarah Anne and Sarah Kelly explore their own experiences of losing and rediscovering hope, including a recent period where Sarah Anne felt completely devoid of hope—a state she had never experienced before. It was not fun.

Together, we explore the heavy, suffocating grip of hopelessness and the steps we've taken to navigate those moments when anxiety and depression take hold. (Spoiler: the answer lies in community and connection!)

When in that state of hopelessness, even the simplest acts of self-care and reaching out for support can feel impossible. The things that did bring us joy, hope and connection stop working. We don’t have the energy to do the things we normally do to keep regulated and balanced.

But what if we could ask for help? Or even just accept help when it is offered? How might our community guide us back to joy and hope? Letting others in, even when it’s terrifying, can remind us that we’re not alone. And help us reconnect to hope.

Whether you’re facing a significant life challenge or just the everyday grind, this episode offers practical advice, stories from our experiences with mental health, and a powerful reminder that it’s okay to not have everything together.

If you’re struggling with the feelings of hopelessness, isolation, anxiety, depression or self-harm, please reach out for help. Our podcast is for educational and informational purposes only, based on our personal experiences, and does not constitute providing medical advice or professional services. A licensed mental health professional can help you discover the path of healing right for you. We’re here, and we understand.

It's inevitable in our culture. From a very young age we start questioning our appearances. One study reports that at age thirteen, 53% of American girls are “unhappy with their bodies.” This grows to 78% by the time girls reach seventeen. 

And it doesn’t necessarily improve as we get older. When we talk about our relationships with our bodies, most women immediately go to their relationship with how their bodies look. 

On today’s podcast, we’re talking with photographer Jen Dean. Jen is so much more than a photographer. She’s a storyteller, a guide, and a healer in the journey of self-embodiment. Jen shares with us how photography has always been a part of her life, and more importantly, its impact on her personal journey and how she helps others see their beauty. 
 
 Throughout our conversation we'll explore:

  • Photography as a tool for self-acceptance and self-love.
  • The significance of feeling good about ourselves and how it can change how we move in the world.
  • Photography as a form of storytelling that helps people connect with each other on a deeper level.
  • The power of changing your beliefs and giving yourself permission to see yourself differently to impact on your confidence and self-acceptance.

Or found your worth in work? 

In this episode, we have a candid conversation about Sarah Anne’s life-changing journey to India where she found a newfound sense of self and purpose. Sarah Anne took a leap of faith when she left an intense career in politics to become her best self. 

She pursued her passion for well-being, yoga, adventure and philosophy.  Through this journey she was able to reconnect with her most authentic self and learned to embrace the unknown. You will be inspired to face you fears, trust your instincts, and be brave enough to shine as your authentic self.

In this episode, we chat about:

  • How to courageously pursue your passions and dreams
  • Trusting the messages of our bodies and intuition
  • Navigating fear and how to move through it for continuous growth
  • Embracing the power of human connections and community
  • The power of pause
  • And maybe, most importantly, it's OK to make mistakes

Through personal stories, we explore what it means to drop the mask and find the courage to reveal who we are at our core, especially in a world that often encourages us to blend in.

Sharing our own experiences, we talk about how small, personal acts can become big steps toward self-acceptance. It can feel surprisingly scary to embrace our quirks in public, especially when they don’t align with the norm. 

Here's the thing, the fear of showing up authentically is often a challenge that doesn’t ease with time—but embracing who we are is always more rewarding than hiding, regardless of the outcome.

Together, we examine the ways fear can exaggerate the impact of a situation and hold us back, while also offering us powerful opportunities for connection and growth. 

Embracing who we are isn’t always comfortable, and we’re not everyone’s cup of tea. Yet, in letting ourselves be seen, we open the door to richer relationships and a deeper sense of worthiness. So, grab a cup of tea, settle in with us, and let’s explore the beauty and bravery of being seen.

Lauree Ostrofsky's remarkable journey from a traditional PR career to becoming a beacon of women's empowerment offers an inspiring example. Lauree's transformative path began with a sabbatical through Europe and took a dramatic turn when she discovered she had a brain tumor. Her story underscores the power of resilience and the incredible potential that emerges when one follows their true calling.

We also dive into the empowering mantra "I'm Scared and Doing it Anyway," drawn from Lauree's personal experience. Lauree's openness about her vulnerabilities invites others to embrace their own fears. We discuss how self-kindness and understanding that fear is a natural part of life can lead to significant personal growth. Lauree highlights the power of curiosity in managing fear and the importance of nurturing oneself, just as you would a child facing their first big challenge.

Finally, we explore the importance of maintaining a positive mindset. Lauree shares invaluable insights on self-compassion, the role of "linchpins" in our personal development, and the impact of our thoughts, beliefs, and the people around us. As Lauree's story illustrates, while we can't always control our external circumstances, we have immense power over how we respond and the mindset we choose to cultivate. Join us for an enriching conversation that promises to leave you inspired and ready to harness your own resilience.
