Do you know the difference between self-worth and self-esteem? Do you know your self-esteem can affect your self-worth? One disagreement with a friend who believed she is/was perfect led us deeper into this area. I also share a bit about my past and how that may have affected my self-worth and self-esteem.  Join us to learn more about her personal journey of growth, how self-worth and self-esteem tie into it, and how we can improve our self-worth. 
What does money mean to you? We discuss what money means to us individually. One says means freedom, and the other says it is a tool. Listen to this episode as I discuss the meaning of money with Lady Poetic Dove.
"What have you done this year that you are proud of"? This is the question I asked on LinkedIn social platform about 2 weeks ago and I threw it to my Co-host.   Her answer takes us to her clearing her debts, the influence of a Higher Power on her finances, credit card acquisition in Canada and other financial tools.  So click to listen and be part of the discussion.
Do you think your skin colour might have an effect on certain experiences you've had? My Co-host Lady Poetic Dove joins me on this episode to discuss my experiences living in Canada for over a year now. Join us, as we discuss how my living on two previous continents might have affected my experiences now in Canada.

A talk with friend triggered me to look to a few times in my life where exposure to new ideas helped mould me.  I also talk briefly about how it has helped shaped how I interact with people and new things. 
I share the three types of people I have come across in relation to how they adapt and relate to a new setting, goal or environment. 
This is a continuation of the first episode. I share other areas this could be applied to.
On the very first episode I open up about how I feel under-prepared and using that as a reason not to start.
