Clearer, not Louder with Beatrice Kamau

In this episode, we chat:
How to stay CLEAR AND FIRM on what you know, want, and believe when someone else's pressure or reactions challenge your boundaries, values and opinions.
What you'll learn in this episode:
Why a friendly "come onnn" after you've already said no is worth paying attention to—and how easily a decision can become a negotiation you never agreed to have.
Why someone telling you all about who they're going to be can distract you from paying attention to who they're showing you they are right now.
How dramatic reactions and "well, what about you?" arguments can leave you questioning a choice you were perfectly clear about five minutes ago—and what that can tell you about your discernment.

In this episode, we chat:
The fine line between someone loving you and someone loving who they ARE and who they BECOME around you.
What you'll learn in this episode:
Why someone can genuinely enjoy being around you—and still be more attached to how they feel with you than to who you actually are.
How to recognize the difference between someone who values you for your utility and someone who remains invested in you as a person.
The subtle difference between someone who carries your company and someone who carries your story—and why one leaves you feeling familiar, while the other leaves you feeling deeply known.

In this episode, we chat:
Why it's high time you stop giving everyone but *yourself* the benefit of the doubt when something is off with that friendship, that job, that relationship etc.
What you'll learn in this episode:
• Why the benefit of the doubt becomes expensive when you're the only one paying for it.
•  Why grace needs... discernment and why you don't have to overextend yourself under the guise of "giving the benefit of the doubt"
• Why assuming everyone would handle a situation the way you would might be keeping you from seeing the truth (because yes, even though you think they would NEVER... they might just)

In this episode, we chat:
Why you don't have to wait until you are a shell of yourself, hanging on a thread, practically on life support to leave or change your boundaries in that friendship, relationship, job, or business partnership.
What you'll learn in this episode:
• The difference between sacrificing yourself and making a willful sacrifice that doesn't steal from you
• Recognizing when to say WHEN... early, rather than waiting until you are completely exhausted and unrecognizable to make a decision for yourself
• Why noticing that something is... off over and over again—and having an internal WAR with yourself about it—might just be enough.

In this episode, we chat:
Staying in a relationship, job, career, or friendship longer than you planned because of the investment of....time even when you're stressed, unhappy, and dissatisfied and... how to gain the courage to choose different.
What you'll learn in this episode:
• The sunk-cost fallacy and what you might be doing early on that causes you to stay even when you're questioning the relationship, the friendship, the business, or the job.
• Why your pride might actually be keeping you in that relationship, job, career, or friendship-- NOT embarrasment, fear of what people may think, or the investment of "time".
• You don't have to endure and survive a job, a friendship, or a relationship-- and nearly fall apart and lose your mind in the process-- just because they have *some* good traits that you enjoy amongst all the alarming ones.
