In this episode of Unscripted Conversation, I chat with Aparna Costa on the topic of rest. We touch upon why we women find it difficult to rest without attaching a purpose to it or even justifying it. She offers some practical advice on how to evaluate the situation in terms of evaluating every Yes using the lenses of 'fit for purpose' and 'what am I giving up'. If there is 1 thing I walked away from this conversation was - it is to move my REST to my TO DO list.

How often do we adjust our words, choices, or even our boundaries simply to avoid being disliked?

And where do we draw the line between being considerate of others and compromising who we are?

In this episode of Unscripted Growth, I explore our relationship with approval, the discomfort of being disliked, and what it might mean to become more comfortable with ourselves.

Perhaps the real question isn't whether others like us, but how much of ourselves we're willing to give up to be liked.

Some habits are so deeply woven into our lives that we rarely stop to question them.

This episode began with one ordinary question that made me notice something I had never really examined before.

What followed was less about finding an answer, and more about noticing what we may have quietly learned to believe.

In this episode of Unscripted Growth, I explore one of those everyday assumptions that may deserve a second look.
