   Career Changes & Letting Go of Control

   In this episode of Genuine Girl, I chat about a recent career change I've made and the larger lessons that have come with it - namely, the tendency to have a need for control and the importance of letting go for positive changes to transpire. From trying to control others' perceptions through people pleasing to trying to control the direction of my career path, I dive into the different types of control that were actually more harmful than helpful on this journey. I also share what actually helped me find peace in whatever outcome transpired. Hopefully it inspires you if there is any kind of change you are thinking about making or if you feel stuck on your own journey. You are not alone!

   The Contradiction Crisis: Doing It All While Feeling It All

   In this episode, I’m talking about something I’ve recently come to call The Contradiction Crisis: the tension between being high-functioning and highly feeling. I open up about what it’s been like to appear “put together” while managing deeper challenges, and how hard it can be to hold both ambition and emotion at the same time. This is the most vulnerable I’ve ever gotten on the podcast, but I hope it reminds you that you’re not alone if you’re feeling mentally drained and still showing up every day. You don’t have to choose between being successful and being human.
