First off, big news! We are launching 2023 with a brand new podcast name - Stop Stressing Me Out! Each episode I'll be sharing fun, tangible tips for stress management with you, both from years of coaching clients and from interviewing experts around the world. It's going to be FIRE and your go-to podcast for stress less tips.  Today we're kicking off 2023 with something a little bit new. I'm joined by Tara Scott, podcast host of Queerly Recommended, to talk about the Netflix documentary, Stutz, by Jonah Hill.  Stutz is a documentary about therapist, Phil Stutz, and his various tools that he's honed as a therapist. As we'll discuss in the episode, the documentary shifts not only to share these tools, but also the dynamic between Jonah Hill and Phil, and we see the use of tools in real-time.   

Nobody wants to be laid off, but over 40% of North Americans will be laid off at least once in their careers. This week I'm joined by employment lawyer, Heather Tyminski, to help us understand what are our rights when we are laid off, how to consider your severance and in what situations to reach out to an employment lawyer. She shares so many nuggets of wisdom that I wish I had known before I was laid off - it's a good one!

Entrepreneurs in particular had to make major shifts to stay afloat, amidst uncertainty and huge personal impact.
