Ep. 97 My 5 Favorite Personal Development Tools (Part 1): Healing the Hustle

I am very excited about today’s episode for a couple of reasons. One, it’s my birthday! I know as we get older, it shouldn’t be such a big deal, but I’ll be 49. I’ve heard people say that when you get past 35, you just continue to feel 35. I absolutely feel that way. I don’t necessarily look like I’m 35 anymore, but I absolutely feel that way. So I have no idea how I got to be 49 years old, I’m way too immature! I’m just a very playful soul and playful person.  

So, as I have divulged in previous episodes, this Healing the Hustle series is very in the moment real. I am not recording weeks and weeks out. I am literally recording this two days before my birthday, on July 5th, and I’ve been thinking about this episode a lot. It’s gonna divert a bit from the Healing the Hustle content, because I was having a conversation recently with somebody in my life and we were talking about how well we know ourselves. My answer is probably an A- minus, there’s always room for improvement, I don’t believe we’re an A+ plus at anything.  

I will be doing personal development and self-improvement for sure until the day I die. I just always believe in forward momentum and thinking into the future and being the best version of ourselves. 

So that will always be happening. Today’s episode I’m covering my five favorite personal development tools as a therapist and just as somebody who is adamantly for personal development and for self-improvement. Well, at least this is Part 1 because I love this so much I couldn’t squeeze it into just one episode. In fact, each of these tools could be an entire episode on their own, or even more. 

I could have done 10. I could have done three, but five came to my mind very easily. So, with today’s episode, I want you to be thinking about… How well do you know yourself? 

I would love to hear from you. Feel free to reach out to me via email and of course would love a review on iTunes and don’t forget to subscribe and follow for future episodes.
