267. Is America Changing its Values?

The Reintroduction: Back in My GhiaLogic Era — Episode 2Three months. That’s it. I’m officially entering my 30s. And honestly? I’m not walking into this next decade asking for permission.After taking a year away from recording, I’m back in my GhiaLogic era—and this time, I’m bringing everything I’ve learned with me.In this episode, I’m talking about what turning 30 actually feels like when you’re somewhere between “Wow, look how far I’ve come” and “Wait… am I supposed to have this figured out by now?” 😂Because somewhere along the way, 30 became a deadline. A career deadline. A relationship deadline. A financial deadline. A “you should have your life together by now” deadline. And social media certainly hasn’t made those expectations any quieter.But what if 30 isn’t an expiration date? What if it’s an expansion?I’m reflecting on the lessons my twenties forced me to learn—about reinvention, ambition, relationships, independence, alignment, boundaries, and trusting myself. I’m talking about realizing that not everyone who claps for you is rooting for you, that being talented doesn’t guarantee people will know how to value you, and that sometimes you can work harder and harder without actually getting closer to the life you want.Instead, I’m choosing intention. Creation. Reciprocity. Travel. Business. Financial growth. Community. And, perhaps most importantly, actually celebrating myself while I’m becoming the woman I’ve been working toward.For this conversation, I’m joined by Ricka Mims (@riisobright), and together we’re getting real about entering a new decade, the expectations that come with getting older, and what it looks like to define success and adulthood on your own terms.This isn’t an episode about having life figured out.It’s about realizing you don’t have to.Thirty, not sorry.And I want to know: What are you no longer apologizing for as you enter your next season?Welcome back to Experiencing GhiaLogic. 🖤 Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter: @GhiaLogicX

Being too critical of yourself can be damaging to your mental health and well-being. It can lead to feelings of low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. It can also be linked to other mental illnesses, such as eating disorders. Most of us consciously aspire to be the best we can and to do the right thing, and self-analysis can serve us as a tool for measuring our efforts and achievements. While analysis is a healthy way to observe our own behavior and learn how to overcome weaknesses and bad habits, it often transforms into self-devaluation. Often we self-criticize on autopilot and need to wake up and realize the damage we are doing. Self-criticism can exacerbate anxiety and depression by perpetuating negative thought patterns and reducing self-esteem. When individuals engage in self-criticism, they consistently focus on their perceived flaws, mistakes, and shortcomings, often with a harsh and unforgiving attitude. ghialogic.com Instagram: @GhiaLogicXPod Youtube: @GhiaLogic Make sure you use my Magic Mind discount : GHIALOGIC20 - ⁠⁠https://www.magicmind.com/ghialogic⁠⁠  - for 20% off on one-time purchases and subscriptions
