When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance.\u201d John Lennon says it beautifully.\u00a0\nAt the end of the day, what we want as human beings is genuine connection, to be seen and heard.\nIn this episode, we speak with Christina Foxwell of Ignite Purpose. Her vision is to change the way we engage people in business because people are central to the work we do, and without purpose we can\u2019t live our best lives. We also delve into the power of vulnerability and authenticity to create genuine connections.\nUltimately, that sense of belonging is up to you. Others cannot make you feel like you belong. You have to connect to your own self worth and do the inner work. Your power-up battery of who you are is not necessarily reliant on others but on your authentic self.\nWhen we grow, reflect, and learn about who we are and how we show up, we are then able to shift into a life of purpose and live the life we are proud of.\nTOPICS WE DISCUSSED INCLUDE:\n\nChange starts with ourselves (5:00)\n\nIt starts and ends with you (5:45)\n\nWe think we have no choice during overwhelm (6:20)\n\nChange is uncomfortable but worth it (7:30)\n\nReflecting on how you can better yourself (8:10)\n\nPutting yourself out there (9:43)\n\nGetting gritty (9:55)\n\nCompassion fatigue (13:29)\n\nWe judge as soon as we feel uncomfortable (17:25)\n\nShame in parenting (2:25)\n\nCarrying your shame into parenthood (20:50)\n\nSetting boundaries (29:09)\n\nYou can\u2019t expect others to change (31:00)\n\nHaving your own back (34:30)\n\nThe oxytocin in your brain when you are being loved (35:22)\n\nBelonging relies on yourself (36:55)\n\nNo single person is the same (38:00)\n\nA different version of you exists in everyone\u2019s mind (38:24)\n\nMaking space for someone (38:48)\n\nChildren as our teachers (46:30)\n\nOur belonging is birthed from inside (47:13)\n\n\nCONNECT WITH CHRISTINA FOXWELL\nIgnite Purpose\nFollow Christina on Instagram and Facebook\nFollow Christina on Twitter\nConnect with Christina on LinkedIn\n\nCONNECT WITH ELAINA MULLERY\nHappyNurse.com.au\nConnect with me on Instagram and Facebook\nConnect with me on LinkedIn\nSubscribe to my Youtube channel","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/b827b162-2036-49df-b605-2e1331117c8b/2-podcast-image-1.jpg"}
