Are you looking for a podcast that is rooted in personal growth, cultural awareness, and maybe a bit of spirituality? Well, you found it! This podcast is about sharing insights and wisdom that are relevant to us as unique humans who have shared human experiences.
Your host, Dr. Margie, is a motivational speaker, Certified Professional Coach, and Cultural Anthropologist. She has lived and traveled in many countries, where she learned an invaluable lesson: humans are more alike than they are different—and that shared humanity matters to co-create a better world, together.
We're discussing confidence this week! It's a favorite topic of mine, because it can affect so much of what we do and don't do, and how we feel about ourselves. In this episode, I break down what confidence means to me and teach you how to build awareness around what confidence means to you. I also address the impact of culture on our confidence and the need to unlearn that societal conditioning. And because practice is fundamental to personal growth, I give you some tips on how to grow your confidence and let go of your self-doubt!

Ep 5 | The Gift of Intimacy
We have a lot of misconceptions and unreasonable societal expectations surrounding relationships and marriage. Today, Dr. Margie celebrates her 14th anniversary with listeners by sharing her greatest learning from her current and previous marriages.

She recommends two tools to help listeners dive deeper into relationship intimacy:
