Episode 206 - How high is your confidence and self-esteem?

Having a healthy level of confidence and self-esteem is necessary! But so often, this grows over the years with time. For the life of the young, finding that self-value and self-worth is very hard.

Join in to discover how words can impact our children. Parents, be careful what you say!

Episode 201 - What shouldn't I say at work?

It is very easy to let your guard down once you have become comfortable in an environment. Many of us spend a majority of our time at work building our career. Much of that time is spent working with our coworkers and bosses, who may eventually become our friends. While this can be a very positive thing, we must be careful to maintain professionalism. A slip of the tongue could cost us our reputation, be perceived negatively, and/or impact our career growth and development. So be careful, our words have power!

Episode 200 - Power of Words

We need to really be thoughtful about what we say! We use words to communicate, express, and describe ideas, thoughts, dreams, feelings, emotions, places, people, things, and MORE. But we underestimate the power of words and how they create spaces, reveal character, and impact us and those around us.
