It can be challenging to catch up on old times when you haven't seen someone for a while. You may feel like you've changed, and they're still stuck in the past. This can especially happen when meeting a new person, your family, or another person you're accustomed to seeing in a certain way.
It can feel like they are pulling you back into the past, and you struggle to be seen as the person you are now. And it can be even more frustrating when your own family sees you this way.
It's important to remember that you are allowed to grow and change, and the same goes for the person you used to be. They may not recognize you now, but that doesn't mean you're not worth their time.
But this doesn't have to be a negative experience. If you're prepared for it, you can use it as an opportunity to write, flip, and change the script and storyline to show them how far you've come. That's what we will be talking about in this episode with Valerie Livesay, PhD , the author of Leaving the Ghost Light Burning.
Valerie has been thinking about and inquiring into the phenomenon of fallback for more than a decade. Following a career in higher education in both administration and faculty roles, Valerie now serves as the Chief Illuminator at Ghost Light Leadership, where she accompanies individuals through their discovery of self using the analogy of theater to set the stage for their historical and unfolding story.

Let's do things better the next year. Join Julie and Mika as they get deep in conversation with each other about the things that matter the most--what holds us back professionally and personally.
According to scholastic.com:
Around the age of seven, give or take a year, children enter a developmental phase known as the age of reason. “The age of reason refers to the developmental cognitive, emotional, and moral stage in which children become more capable of rational thought, have internalized a conscience, and have a better capacity to control impulses (than in previous stages),” It’s the time when a child starts to truly grasp the difference between right and wrong, and begins to realize that other people have their own feelings that might not match his or hers.
Do you feel that you need to prove yourself to others even though deep in your heart you know you are a rockstar?
Why do we need validation from others? Jules and Mika answer this burning question so you can rise to a more conscience life and be the bigger and better version of yourself.
We always feel the need to prove ourselves to others and then we lack the worth within ourselves organically.
