This week’s topic is a bit different because we’re talking about reaching the age where we can no longer be 100% selfish or self-indulgent. While we often have a theme of putting yourself first and setting boundaries and doing what’s right for you, we also want to talk about the other side of that – the point in our lives where we have to consider what impact our decisions can have on other people in our lives. Many of us are now sharing our lives with a partner or child, or perhaps you have more financial responsibility or you’re caring for an elderly parent or relative, these big life changes might not be something you had to consider 10 or 15 years ago, so we’re chatting abut how that dynamic changes our decision making.

This week’s topic is a big one – we’re talking all about how to confront and overcome your own bias. Whether we realise it or not, we all have certain biases and it can be uncomfortable to realise this, but acknowledging them, challenging them and getting into the habit of questioning where your beliefs are coming from is vital to continue on a journey of personal growth.
