Rekindling with Julie Squires:

We've likely all felt entitled from time to time. Entitlement is when we feel like we inherently deserve something, special privileges or have the right to having something.

We've all had those moments where it feels like the walls are caving in on us and we can't muster an optimistic attitude. Pessimism consists of 3 distinct attributes (the 3 P's) that once you are aware of, you can use to unwind yourself from it's negative grip.

We're drawn to working with animals for many altruistic reasons. Then why can we be so cruel to our fellow humans sometimes? In this episode I'm talking about making generous assumptions about our fellow humans and using the Socratic method of questioning when we do want to speak out.

In today's episode I'm speaking to therapist Allison Johanson about the nervous system. Understanding the nervous system has been a really important part of my personal development and the work I'm doing with my private clients. Today we are talking about Polyvagal Theory!

Curiosity and criticism are two opposing forces. One leads to self-discovery, the other to self-judgment, condemnation and staying small in your life. This episode will teach you all the reasons and benefits of choosing curiosity over criticism.

After last week's episode you've likely been itching to start looking ahead and thinking about the kind of year you want 2024 to be.
