Cultivating Self-Trust When Creating Something New with Seema Sodha

  • Summary

  • I'm so excited to introduce you to Seema Sodha, Canadian Indian leadership and executive coach, heart centered facilitator, women's circle holder, and writer. In this conversation, Seema shares about how easily creative endeavors can turn into the grind, especially when we’re looking for answers outside of ourselves.

    🌱 In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • The story of how I first met Seema and what an honor and delight it is to co-create with her.

    • What household object the texture of “the grind” reminds Seema of.

    • How Seema’s rigid writing regimen got her more words on the page but missed the heart and soul. 

    • The messages we receive about productivity and action that can get especially loud when we create something new.

    • How Seema shifted her approach to bring more of herself and her unique taste into her writing.

    • The beautiful way Seema engages her senses and self-trust when she writes.

    • How trusting ourselves is an important part of taking our power back, and how it’s a nonlinear process.

    • What external forces make it easy for us to hand our power over to someone else and not trust ourselves.

    • How Seema sees the moments we realize we’re in the grind as an invitation.

    • How sharing your truth and connecting with others is an antidote to the sneakiness of the grind that wears us down.

    • About our upcoming women’s circle where we’ll help you explore and befriend your inner good girl / people pleaser.

    • The two herbs from Seema’s garden that transform her week.

    • Reflection question: Bring to your heart or mind the thing that you're creating right now. How can you bring more of you [and your own unique flavor] into it?
