Be A Wolf - Sessions

Join us for a special milestone as we celebrate the 100th episode of "Be a Wolf Sessions" with reflections on purpose and growth. In this landmark episode, we delve into the analogy that we're like books, with some judging us by our cover, others barely reading the intro, and only a few truly understanding our purpose.  Through the consistency of weekly sessions, we've not only resurrected our inner artist and inner child but also witnessed a surge in creativity and clarity across all aspects of life. This podcasting journey has been a catalyst for self-discovery, helping us navigate the complexities of identity and brand clarity. I express gratitude for the supportive community that has formed around "Be a Wolf Sessions" and invite listeners to continue the journey with us as we embark on the next chapter of growth and exploration. Join us as we howl in celebration of 100 episodes filled with wisdom, insight, and the relentless pursuit of purpose.Episode sponsored by: www.featureweddings.co.nzFine Art Wedding Photo & Film established in 2013.

This week's "Be a Wolf" session delves into the significance of understanding our environment's impact on performance and societal perceptions. We explore how the environment can shape outcomes, drawing parallels between individuals labeled by society, such as drug sellers versus those with different products. By dissecting these examples, we challenge preconceived notions and highlight the importance of breaking free from limiting stereotypes. Additionally, the session emphasizes the common feeling of wanting to disappear in the face of societal pressure, but reframes it as a call to embrace individuality and be authentically seen. Overall, the discussion centers on recognizing the power of environment, challenging societal norms, and embracing authenticity to unlock personal growth and potential.Episode sponsored by: www.featureweddings.co.nzFine Art Wedding Photo & Film established in 2013.

We touch six points around why it's a disservice to others if you stop trying now. Personal Journey: Sharing your own story is like lighting the path for others who may be struggling in the dark. By opening up about your challenges and triumphs, you're showing that it's possible to break free from the chains of limitation and soar to new heights.Historical Context: Understanding where these societal norms come from is crucial for dismantling them. By exploring how ideas about intelligence and success have evolved over time, you're giving context to the struggle and showing that change is possible.Breaking Stereotypes: Ah, stereotypes – the pesky little boxes society loves to put us in. But by highlighting real-life stories of people who've smashed through those boxes, you're proving that labels don't define us. Dyslexia isn't a roadblock; it's just a different path to success.Empowering Others: Practical advice and strategies? Yes, please! By equipping your listeners with tools to build their confidence and chase their dreams, you're arming them for battle against self-doubt and societal pressure. It's like giving them a sword and shield made of self-belief.Celebrating Diversity: Our differences are what make the world shine bright! By shining a spotlight on the unique talents and strengths of neurodiverse individuals, you're painting a beautiful picture of the rich tapestry of humanity. It's time to celebrate what makes us unique, not hide it away.Honoring Legacy: We stand on the shoulders of giants – those who fought for acceptance and understanding before us. By paying tribute to their legacy and acknowledging the work that still needs to be done, you're keeping the flame of progress burning bright for future generations.Enjoy Episode sponsored by: www.featureweddings.co.nzFine Art Wedding Photo & Film established in 2013.
