****Chanti wanted to disclaim that she is not an expert in the topic of this podcast. This conversation was intended to be a fun and socratic exercise only.****

In this powerful episode, I sit down with my dear friend Chanti to explore the ways our inner critic impacts our lives and how we can learn to navigate it with grace and compassion. Chanti shares her passion for understanding the root of self-criticism, and together we dive into practical strategies for quieting the negative self-talk that holds us back.

Chanti also emphasizes the importance of soothing the nervous system instead of trying to shut it down or silence the voice of the inner critic altogether, a tactic that often proves ineffective. We discuss how embracing the nervous system’s signals with self-compassion is a more effective approach to overcoming the inner critic's volume or the amount of attention we give it.

As our conversation unfolds, we also tangent into some of Chanti’s other fascinating passions, including her love for homesteading, her curiosity about outer space, and how user applications for technology can shape our daily experiences. Chanti’s unique perspective on blending self-compassion with these varied interests offers a refreshing and insightful take on personal growth and living intentionally.

Whether you're struggling with perfectionism, negative self-talk, or just want to cultivate more kindness toward yourself, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in for inspiration, encouragement, and actionable tips that will help you step into a more compassionate and empowered version of yourself.

In this episode, I dive into why Halloween has become one of my favorite times of the year, embracing the fun and festive elements while acknowledging the darker aspects that come with it. I explore the powerful lyric from Disturbed's song "Light", where they sing, "sometimes the darkness can show you the light," and how this sentiment perfectly mirrors our journey of accepting both the light and dark sides of life.

I'll share how focusing on what brings us joy—like dressing up, decorating, and spending time with loved ones—helps shift our attention away from the darker parts of the season that might make us uncomfortable. It’s all about where your focus goes, energy flows, a powerful quote from Tony Robbins that plays a big role in how I approach Halloween and life in general.

Join me as I talk about how embracing the duality of life—both the light and the dark—can lead us to a more conscious and peaceful life. By accepting both, we can live more fully and love ourselves in the process. Tune in for a conversation about finding balance, celebrating the present moment, and making Halloween a time to embrace all that it offers!

We explore three key financial principles: the power of compounding, the risk effect, and the tax effect.
