399 Support In All Its Different Forms

When it comes to feeling comfortable, confident, and seen, it is important that we dress ourselves in a way that reflects how we want to feel.

395 Carpe Diem

It’s easy to think we have all the time in the world to do something we’re putting off. Whether it’s changing jobs, or finishing your novel, or finally folding the laundry, we always think we’ll have more time. However time is a finite resource, and one day it too will run out. So we carry with us reminders of that which matters most to us and in doing so we remind ourselves to seize the day and to not take time for granted.

394 The Driver of Innovation is Curiosity

In today’s episode Sarah Elkins talks about these points while also bringing up times in her life where she was passive and direct in conversation, and why it is so important to her to be direct and intentional.
