We’re on vacation so I’ve chosen several podcasts to feature during our absence that are special to me and are from the “early” years (or the first 100 podcasts that you may not have listened to…).
“Always be humble and kind” was a huge country hit several years ago, and I talk in this episode about making mistakes but then using them to actually learn something about yourself – which definitely takes some humility. So, what’s the process involved in that kind of learning ? In this special “Second Time Around” post, sponsored by BetterHelp, I’ll offer five pragmatic ideas about how to accept mistakes, and offer specific questions to ask so that you may be less likely to make them all over again. The process takes integrity, humility and even courage.
Today’s email from a listener is on coping with friends and family not being as close as they used to be, when you’re struggling with depression or anxiety. How do you not feel abandoned?
We’ll be back with fresh podcasts on November 13th so see you then!
