In episode 2, Jill and Shelley dig into the GRIT behind life’s glitter and growth moments. Most social media feeds are filled with glitter and growth moments, but behind those sparkly highlights is a world of grit that deserves to be acknowledged. As we begin to normalize conversations about grit, an authentic and supportive community begins to grow!
This podcast is for you if you believe that:
• Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must.
• Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit!
• It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!”
• There’s more than enough for everyone.
• Your energy will tell you where to go next. Listen and trust the process.
• People are so much more than titles and the boxes others put them in.
The top three takeaways from this episode are:
• Resilience matters. We have to acknowledge the turds and do epic shit anyway.
• Challenges can be viewed as potential opportunities. Every obstacle is an opportunity for personal and professional growth with a little bit of grit.
• Find a support system. Having a community who understands the grit behind the glitter is invaluable.
