What would you tell your 20-year-old self?
In episode 5, I chat with Kit for the first time about what we would tell our younger selves. From worrying about validation from others to self-confidence, Kit and I talk about the layers of self-perception, workplace dynamics, and the liberating power of authenticity.
Later Reeta joins us to talk about evolving in confidence as a young, timid girl who did whatever her parents asked, to a woman who isn’t afraid to ask questions, even when it's difficult. Vulnerability is a source of respect and growth.
How does our relationship with ourselves evolve as we age? Whether navigating your 20s, reflecting in your 40s, or thriving in your 50s and beyond, this conversation is invaluable for every stage of life.
Here’s What We Discuss:
▶️ Advice to Your Younger Self: We touch on the importance of self-confidence, asking questions, and not seeking external validation.
▶️ The Journey to Self-Love: Learning to love yourself and becoming comfortable in your own skin,is a journey that gets better with age.
▶️ Finding Purpose Beyond Titles: Instead of defining yourself by your title, align your identity with your values and purpose. This transformation impacts your self-perception and career choices.
▶️ The Power of Authenticity: We talk about the importance of being true to oneself, celebrating individual differences, and surrounding yourself with people who value you for who you are.
