In this episode of Always Evolving, I walk you through one of the cornerstone exercises from my book Best Self: Be You, Only Better—an exercise I’ve used with clients for over two decades. It’s called SPHERES, and it’s designed to help you pinpoint the exact area of your life that’s keeping you from becoming your best self. We’ll explore the seven core areas: Social, Personal, Health, Employment, Relationships, Evolving, and Spirituality. I’ll guide you through how to assess each one honestly and help you reflect on what’s out of alignment—and more importantly, what to do about it. Learn more about your ad choices.

Tonight, I'm walking into a room full of professionals I’ve never met before—and instead of leading with my accomplishments, I’m choosing something different. In this episode, I reflect on the internal pull to impress, the ego-driven stories we tell, and how easily we trade authenticity for approval. I talk about what it means to show up humbly, the illusions we create around success, and why real connection can only happen when we stop performing and start being honest. This is a reminder—for me, and maybe for you—that our worth isn't earned by validation. It’s something we already have. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
