Dear listeners, welcome back to The Unfiltered Podcast! Today, we’re tackling a topic that’s both intricate and universal: the fear of gossip. Together, we’ll explore what drives the urge to engage in gossip in social and personal situations. What triggers this toxic behavior that can act as a barrier to growth and self-confidence?

We’ll dive into some key questions surrounding gossip: Is it a form of social glue, or is it a way of masking insecurities? I’ll also share practical strategies to help you stay true to your purpose, protect your mind and mental well-being, and tune out external noise.

Additionally, we’ll discuss how to distinguish between constructive criticism and destructive gossip—and how to turn even negativity into a tool for personal growth. Finally, I’ll open up about my own journey and how criticism and gossip have shaped my career growth and direction.

So, let’s dive in and unpack it together!

Dear listeners, and welcome back to the Unfiltered Podcast! Today, we’re diving into something I think we can all relate to—temptation. We’re talking about those moments when you feel that undeniable pull, whether it’s the sight of a decadent dessert, the urge to text someone you know probably isn’t good for you, or the thrill of an invitation you probably shouldn’t accept. We’ll explore how to know when a temptation is a true treat—something that will genuinely bring joy—or just a fleeting desire that will leave us feeling empty. Lastly, I'll share some practical exercises that can help you manage temptation when it comes to communication and even food choices. So, let’s dive in.
