What if there were no changes in the new year? What if there was no “new year, new me?” What if the mantra was simply “New Year. This is me.” What would that require of you? In this episode, Rachel and Suzanne challenge the myth that we must improve ourselves and set resolutions for the year. Perhaps what we really need to do is the opposite:… radical self-acceptance. This episode contains an epic three-part exercise that will reset your inner barometer and leave you feeling exactly like…you!.. We believe every word of this one. You won’t want to miss it.

Why is it that when women display their vulnerabilities and downplay their strengths, they are “relatable” and “brave,” but when they proudly embody their power and skills they are alienated?

You don’t always know exactly when the time is right to make a big move - when to leave a job, when to change careers, when to have kids. No one is going to tell you whether or when to make those decisions in your life. But Rachel and Suzanne sure have a lot of experience doing it for themselves, and in this episode they’ll give you a few guidelines to follow to help along the way. Heads up - sometimes betting on yourself means you end up recording an entire podcast with a wet tile saw in the background.

Five years ago (!!), Rachel and Suzanne did an episode all about their (not so secret) inner selves - the person who comes out during moments of pressure or stress; their inner hulk. Everybody has one - and you likely know exactly who yours is. In this updated version of that episode, they dive back in to help you understand what to actually do when your hulk comes out.
