Choices & Chances with Tesa Arcilla
Life is a series of choices, and I believe the quality of the life we live is only as good as the choices we make — big and small. My name is Tesa Arcilla, a former foreign correspondent and news presenter. In 'Choices & Chances', my goal is to explore life's choices, dig into how others have gone about making their decisions, and turn nuggets of wisdom from others' stories, as well as lessons from my own experiences, into ideas you can use. If you'd like to be inspired by others' stories, subscribe, join the mailing list and be part of the community.
What would you like to hear more of? What questions on decision-making or life choices would you like me to put to experts or people who've gone through similar experiences? Send me a DM on Instagram.
Choices & Chances with Tesa Arcilla
Starting 2025 on My Terms: Why Strength of Mind and of Self are Non-Negotiables - Ep15
It’s the 22nd of January, and this is my first podcast episode of the year. I’ll share why I’ve taken my time to start and how this decision ties into one of the most important lessons I teach: strength of mind and of self.
In this episode, I talk about:
- Why it’s OK to move at your own pace and let go of the pressure to start strong in January.
- How strength of mind and of self serves as the foundation for bold decisions, whether you’re a leader, a parent, or navigating career transitions.
- The power of choosing your own path and trusting your inner compass, even in a world that expects conformity.
I’ll also share personal stories about my non-linear career path and how embracing change shaped the way I think, work, and mentor others.
This is a conversation about alignment, intention, and creating success on your own terms. Tune in if you’re ready to redefine what it means to lead with strength in 2025.
