Dancing in the Discomfort Zone with Anne Bonney
Let's face it, life is uncomfortable. Whether it's interacting with other humans (or trying to), going after our goals and improving our lives, or understanding other people's perspectives, preferences and proclivities, being able to face the discomforts in life with courage, compassion, confidence and resilience will make life a lot more enjoyable! So join me as we DANCE IN THE DISCOMFORT ZONE! We'll explore new ideas, learn how to build our confidence, courage and resilience, and laugh a little too, because life is serious enough. We need a little cha cha, and a little ha ha every once in a while! Welcome to the Discomfort Zone with Anne Bonney!

This episode will make you think! There are no easy answers, nothing is black and white, and this week's guest Jess Pettitt (https://jesspettitt.com/) and I wander down a bunch of uncomfortable paths! This is something she has been doing with her audiences and clients for decades, and she is a master at giving people permission to sit in the discomfort of commonly challenging topics like INCLUSION and CHANGE and LUNCH MEATS! (ok, I added that last one. I have baloney on the brain....you'll see why once you listen to this episode!) Open your mind, set aside emotion, and engage in this brilliant academic exercise with us, to help make you stronger when the challenges aren't so academic...and they join you in your kitchen!
We chat about
- Self awareness being the first step to true change
- How change doesn't have to come in big leaps...in fact, it sticks better if it doesn't.
- War criminals
- spreadable cheese
- Inclusion
- Tough Conversations
- Bologna (baloney?)
- Prison Reform
- Abortion
- When to order more appetizers!
There's a little something for everyone, so buckle up and enjoy!
