  • Rejection is the goal

    Love following along and listening, especially the podcast with Susan Kanoff. She is incredible. I really admire what she’s built with her nonprofit Uncommon Threads.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sexual Empowerment in Midlife
Q: How has embracing your sexuality affected your daily life and relationships?
Being honest with myself improved confidence in all areas—romantic, parental, and professional—reduced anxiety, and created a more integrated sense of self that still keeps boundaries intact and maintains two lives without compromising integrity.
Sexual Empowerment in Midlife
Q: What catalyzed your decision to pursue a different path, like opening your relationship and seeking therapy?
Hearing a friend's openness to changing their relationship sparked a desire to explore my own sexuality, and therapy helped me disentangle my needs from others' expectations, leading to healthier honesty and a better alignment with my values.
Sexual Empowerment in Midlife
Q: What was your good girl narrative and how did it shape you before this shift?
It was a pattern of following rules, seeking others' comfort, and suppressing my own sexuality; I was successful professionally and in life, but I wasn't fully true to myself, and I carried hidden desires that caused internal tension until I began questioning those roles.
Why Your Team Keeps Having the Same Fight (And How to Finally Fix It)
Q: What practical steps can someone take after learning their primary and secondary archetypes?
Take the Five Archetypes questionnaire to identify distorted thoughts and default patterns, then slow down when triggered, invite a support system, and deliberately incorporate other elements into decisions and actions to create more collaboration and less conflict.
Why Your Team Keeps Having the Same Fight (And How to Finally Fix It)
Q: How does stress affect creativity and perspective according to this framework?
Stress narrows our perspective to a single, dominant element, making us myopic; by recognizing which element is over-indexed and inviting others to contribute, we can expand our view, improve empathy, and make better, more informed decisions in the moment.
