Blushing Phoenix
Blushing Phoenix is a podcast about learning to trust yourself.
Think about the moments where you edit yourself to stay safe. You hold back. Play small. Don’t set a boundary. Say less. Leave. Hide. Cancel.
Why?
What’s the consequence of being seen?
Of being you?
These voice memos and conversations challenge you to notice where you’re abandoning yourself - and choose differently.
Not later. In the moment.
Change the story by changing the behavior.
Notice. Interrupt. Choose. Change.
Blushing (or whatever you fear) is the invitation.
Phoenix is choosing the discomfort that comes with being fully you.

Do you and your friends share audio message ramblings? I'm trying something new on the podcast. No edits. No cleanup. No plan. Just me sharing thoughts with you as if I have your phone number and just hit record on the audio to talk to you during my morning walk.
1. Because it helps me process.
2. Because I believe the sharing of ideas is what helps broaden our own thinking. You never know what one interesting idea might spark - and the ripple effect it may have.
This message is about not setting ourselves up for failure by putting the outcomes we're seeking in the hands of someone else.
Tearing down the ideas that we once believed led to significance - and why we were ever searching for significance to begin with.
Why do we always want more? How much is enough? Is enough - enough?
Also, a shift on being present vs enjoying the passing of time.
As my friend, Andrea, and I say when we send a whole slew of messages - "Enjoy the ride."
