When we talk to people that we enjoy spending time with we talk about everything. Wait... do we? Or do we talk about things that make us feel comfortable? In this episode, we talk about the importance of leaning to discomfort with hard conversations as a way to grow and develop stronger bonds with those that we love the most.

New seasons bring new challenges, and sometimes new routines. It can be overwhelming trying to navigate different tasks at the same intensity and at the same time. Understanding this, this episode brings a formula that categorizes different tasks at hand. Then, it puts in perspective what are the tasks that might be most important now, so we can tackle them one by one successfully.

Paraphrasing Carl Jung: in our unconscious mind we hold all the things about ourselves that we repress, whether because they are evil, socially unacceptable, harmful to others, or detrimental to our health. In this episode, I talk about being exposed to our greedy side in harmless situations. This is with the expectation of learning how to control it, so it doesn't affect us in the long run and ends up being a serious problem.

We all go through different situations in life. And some of them tend to be more tense than others. Depending on how tense the situation is, chances are that the situation is pretty tense because we are going through it for the first time. In this episode, I will be discussing the FFT effect. I borrowed this term from Brené Brown, and it stands for "F****ing First Time."
