How To Be A Better Person with Kate Hanley

Podcasts

Start your day with one simple thing you can do in the next 24 hours to be your better self--not so you can be a perfect person. Or even a good person! Just... better. I wrote the book "How to Be a Better Person" after "be a better person" topped the list of most popular New Year's resolutions for the first time ever. This podcast builds on the ideas in that book and is intended to be like the little angel on your shoulder, providing a counter narrative to the negative thoughts and impulses that are floating around both out there and inside your own head. My mission is two-fold: to help you keep growing, and to inspire you to use your power for good. Sign up for the podcast newsletter for a little goodness in your inbox on (most) Sunday mornings! .

[Boundaries, People!]: How Boundaries Create Freedom, Ep. 936

5/31/2023
Drawing boundaries might feel limiting, but corralling your energy is, paradoxically, SUPER freeing. Then you don’t have to expend time or energy wrapped up in drama that isn’t yours, or deciding when you should get involved, or figuring out how to scale back.

[Boundaries, People!]: Which of the 2 Types of Boundaries Do You Need Most?, Ep. 935

5/29/2023
[I’m replaying some of my best stuff while I take the summer off to decompress. This week’s episodes on boundaries are something we all need reminders of because unfortunately, boundaries are not ‘set it and forget it’!] There are two types of boundaries, and we tend to only think about one of them, which means you could be neglecting an important way of keeping yourself in a good place. Which one are you better at? And which type would serve you best at this moment?

[Bottom 3 Episodes Ever]: Be Coachable, Ep. 934

5/26/2023
Here it is–my third-least listened to episode ever. It’s about how to stay open to constructive feedback, and why you want to. I mean, this is a true strength–but perhaps not something that’s typically top of mind for most of us (hence, it’s position way down at the bottom of the downloads).

[Bottom 3 Episodes Ever]: Why You Should Ditch the GPS Once in a While, Ep. 933

5/24/2023
This week I’m replaying the three episodes that have gotten the fewest listens since they first launched. These are some really early episodes, and frankly, they’re kinda preachy! I think I had some stuff to get off my chest! Here’s the original episode description: “Surely there are some places in this world where you don’t need an omnipotent GPS voice to get you there. I mean, what happens when the grid goes down and we’ve all lost the ability to navigate by ourselves? What then?” This episode sponsored by: NextEVO – Use promo code BETTER to save 20% off your order of $40 or more Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

[Bottom 3 Episodes Ever]: Can You Eat Lunch Without Doing This? , Ep. 932

5/22/2023
As I was browsing for old episodes to re-play while I take a hiatus for the rest of the summer, I figured it was only fair that I play the least popular episodes, and not just the big winners. So this week I’m replaying the three episodes that have gotten the fewest listens since they first launched. Do they deserve their spot at the bottom of the list? Give ‘em a listen and decide for yourself! Here’s the original episode info: “Today I am encouraging you—imploring you, even!--to take an honest-to-gosh lunch break. And by that I mean, move away from your computer, and keep your hands and your eyes off your phone.

[Top 3 Episodes Ever]: What Got You in Trouble in School Could Now Save Democracy, Ep. 931

5/19/2023
This week during the great hiatus of 2023 (for this podcast, anyway, although if there’s something you can take a break from, I support you!), I’m replaying the three episodes with the most listens. Today’s is about something that may seem trivial that actually has the potential to have a very big impact on your community at large. And that is to have more conversations with the people you know about the laws, policies, bodies, and people that govern where you live. Yep, chatting with friends is something that might have gotten you labeled a 'bad student' when you were in school, but now it's something that helps you be a good citizen.

[Top 3 Episodes Ever]:CAN You Give from an Empty Cup??, Ep. 930

5/17/2023
This week during the great hiatus of 2023 (for this podcast, anyway, although if there’s something you can take a break from, I support you!), I’m replaying the three episodes with the most listens. Today’s is a very close second in terms of overall listens to the Stop Being Nice episode I re-ran on Monday. You've heard the advice to put on your own oxygen mask first, and that you can't give from an empty cup (I've said this myself many times, including on this podcast). But I've been re-thinking this. Because, first of all, you don't have to have your shit together in order to help someone else. And second, being of service raises your own energy. So how do you balance self-care with helping others? It's kind of like making a smoothie.

[Top 3 Episodes Ever]: Why You Should Stop Being Nice, Ep. 929

5/15/2023
This week during the great hiatus of 2023 (for this podcast, anyway, although if there’s something you can take a break from, I support you!), I’m replaying the three episodes with the most listens. Today’s is from the last week of 2021, when my friend Terri Trespicio, author of the book Unfollow Your Passion, was my co-host for the week and shared several anti-resolutions for the year ahead. This was far and away the most popular anti-resolution–and was, in fact, the most popular episode I’ve ever released. It is: Stop Being Nice. Despite the fact that women have been socialized to be nice above all else, it's not actually a very noble goal. Does that mean you should go out and let your a-hole flag fly? Or become outright mean? Goodness, no. It just means you set your sights on something different--something that takes a lot less energy than being nice AND that gives you more energy, because it's gratifying.

[Money Mantras]: Pay Yourself First, Ep. 928

5/12/2023
Although the bills take up a big part of our financial thinking, your highest money priority is NOT to make sure that your bills are paid. It’s to make sure that YOU are paid–so that you have money for more than just your bills. You have it for goals, your dreams, and your freedom. And how you do that is today’s money mantra.

[Money Mantras]: Think Like a Breadwinner, Ep. 927

5/10/2023
Most women limit their earning potential by aiming merely to be able to pay their bills–which is a wonderful thing to be able to do, but it stops short of assuming full responsibility for ourselves, and leaves out the potential for things like saving, investing, and building true financial freedom (meaning, not being beholden to the next paycheck). Today’s guest, Jennifer Barrett, is on a mission to change that thinking! She’s the author of Think Like a Breadwinner, and she’s been on the journey of correcting her own thinking and assuming more responsibility for the financial health of herself and her family.

[Money Mantras]: What to Say instead of “I Can’t Afford That”, Ep. 926

5/8/2023
With the “is it here yet?” recession and definitely here inflation, conversations about how much things cost and how much money you have or don’t have are even more pressing. Venting and talking out options is great, but if you tell yourself--or someone else–”I can’t afford that” or “I’m so broke” you’re basically putting energy in to this idea that you don’t have enough money. Come find out how to frame this in your mind and in your words for better financial mojo.

5/1/2023
Just like your favorite streaming shows, I am taking a hiatus. In the meantime, I’m replaying some of my best stuff. Up this week–all about your energy. As in, your vibe. Figuring out what raises your energy and what squashes it is a crucial part of being able to take care of yourself and your overall energy. I call it doing an energy audit, which sounds very official, doesn’t it? Like someone’s going to come to your house wearing a hard hat and carrying a clipboard? Don’t worry, it’s not like that.
