Episode Highlights:

• The need to be “the best”

• The “Little Self’s" need to be seen

• The trap of toxic positivity

• Pep talks + reframes might not be the solution

• The gifts of jealousy, need, and comparison

• A practice for making space for those “cringe-y” feelings

In this deeply vulnerable solo episode, Analisa explores the “cringe-y and crunchy” feeling of jealousy. How can we honor the part of ourselves that wants to be the best? When & how can we make space for the fear of not being the best? Can we answer this ego with love? Analisa shares her own stories of grappling with this, in the context of coaching a client through it. She even guides us through a practice of holding space for these shadows. Bookmark this episode to listen the next time you are in final callbacks with your bestie, or doubting your place “in the room.”

A Balancing Act is hosted by Analisa Leaming, Broadway actor + soulful coach for creatives. This season is designed to inspire performers and creatives to journey towards their dreams with more soul and less attachment to outcomes and society's definitions of success.
