From discovering what a healthy relationship looks like after years of tragic dating stories, the end of my single era, to moving to NYC and writing a book (!!!) there is so much to cover, alongside answering some of your burning questions.

123. A life update - healthy love, moving overseas, dealing with online criticism

Work makes up a large component of our lives. It's estimated that 1/3 of our waking lives will be spent working, so when that environment is toxic or harmful, it takes it's toll. Especially in our 20s, a toxic workplace can be quite a negative, formative experience and leave us with poor confidence, imposter syndrome and chronic burnout. In today's episode we discuss the psychological impact of bad jobs, including: 
The burnout cycle
Psychological enmeshment with a workplace
Long term impact on self esteem and future employment 
Tips for surviving a toxic workplace
Tips on how to thrive afterwards, despite the trauma 

I also share my own lived experience with a toxic workplace and what I wish I'd known before. Listen now!

When someone criticises us we naturally feel on edge and defensive. This is because criticism threatens our ego and our sense of self and so we have a very emotional reaction. But that doesn't have to be the case. In today's episode, we break down:
What makes us so sensitive to criticism
Hypercritical parenting and an aversion to feedback 
Rejection sensitivity and criticism 
The differences between criticism and feedback
How to properly approach criticism
When the criticism isn't worth your time

All of that and more as we unpack the psychology behind criticism. Listen now!

232. Why do we hate criticism?

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/e31b7ddc-ba52-4ff4-889f-b1f10036e183/transcript

If nothing else, our 20s are a time for reinvention and transformation. We become clearer and clearer about the version of us we want to be, and hopefully more confident around expressing our authentic elves, but sometimes this is interrupted by periods of boredom, stagnation, isolation and discomfort. These are all signs that something in our lives needs to change, and it needs to change now. In today's episode we break down five ways to reinvent yourself during your 20s, including: 
Theory of opposites
Visualisation and choosing the 'theme' for your next era
The timeline for change 
The power of risk + microrisks 
Changing 'what if' thinking into 'what else' or 'so what?' + more 

Listen now when you're ready for transformation.
