Season 2: The Value of Being Adaptable

"If knowledge is power, then knowing what you don't know is wisdom" - Adam Grant. Nature has it that being adaptable is our single greatest skill, for it is not the strongest or the fastest that wins; it's the one that can adapt the best. Since life never goes according to plan, there is value in knowing how to adapt. The first part of it is getting to know yourself.

Season 2: Take Your Power Back

We all have a role to play in our demise. The quicker you stop the blame game and take accountability for your role in your demise, the quicker you will heal. Placing blame on others is easy but it doesn't get you very far. People are left feeling hopeless, lost, and powerless. In this episode, we discuss my own pain points and my journey in claiming my health and my power back.

Season 2: Reflecting back on 2021

You don't learn from your experiences as much as you learn by reflecting on your experiences. Taking the time to reflect on this year's learnings with a few friends! What have you learned this year?

Season 2: Episode 2: The Issues Are In Your Tissues

Why are we the way that we are? Our childhood tendencies provide insight into our behaviors and particularly our toxic traits. We can either pity ourselves for the upbringings we had or we can make the choice to heal. Healing is an active process and is the only way for us to flourish. This episode debunks the myth that people-pleasing is "being nice," and focuses on the people-pleasing tendencies that most of us have. If we don't heal from what cut us, we will bleed on those who didn't hurt us. It is in our purest nature to be our happiest selves. We owe ourselves to grow out of a culture of people-pleasing and return home to ourselves.

Enough Unsaid - Season 2: Criticism - It doesn't have to hurt

Don't we all just dread criticism? It suddenly makes you very conscious and hyper-aware of your flaws. We get defensive, we get upset, we just don't like it, why? Simply, because it hurts our ego. It hurts our sense of self. But it doesn't have to be that way. We've all heard that criticism is good for you, but it requires a shift in perspective. The good, the bad, the ugly criticism can be your fuel, it can be your motivator, it can be a confidence booster. Even the bad kind. It never goes away, so we might as well learn how to use it to our advantage.

Episode 4: Grow Through What You Go Through

They say life is everything that happens outside of your plans. These unplanned events certainly change us. Though we have no say on how life unfolds, we do have the ability and power to not be reduced by it. Of course this is quite the journey, filled with mountains and valleys, highs and lows.Here is a short snippet from our conversation on growing through life’s challenges. Join me tomorrow on the fourth episode of Enough Unsaid where we explore growth and all the “uncomfortable feelings” that come with it.Like they say, when life gives you lemons...

Episode 3: You Can't Expect People To Fulfill Your Needs

You know yourself best. So why do we expect others to fulfill our needs? You have to let the nature of things be, you have let people act in alignment with their nature...even if it's against your needs.

Episode 2: You Don't Have To Fulfill Your Parents' Expectations

The responsibility of being a “good kid” is almost at the forefront of every decision we make. From our clothing choices to our career choices, we are ingrained with the belief that we owe our parents and our families especially if you come from an immigrant family. It’s a delicate balance between appreciating all that they’ve done and refusing the responsibility and burden of “doing enough” for our families. Where do the lines between individuality and being a “good child” get drawn? Can they co-exist? Where does self respect become disrespect towards our families? How can we continue to be ourselves when our cultural boundaries reel us in?
