Manage episode 374810511 series 3438928
As we wander the globe in search of stories of inspiration and resilience, we stumble upon Jessica Amaro, a far-flung author with a remarkable passion for mental health and literacy. Jessica's story takes us from South Africa, where she initiated a life-changing project of collecting over 12,000 books for schools and an orphanage in Johannesburg, back to her roots in the States, where she penned the empowering series, "Don't Become Your Bullshit". This series is a testament to Jessica's commitment to help individuals confront and take charge of their own personal struggles and dysfunctions.
Jessica's insights into personal growth and interpersonal relationships are nothing short of illuminating. She introduces us to the concept of self-therapy, a tool rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy, that offers a fresh approach to dealing with anxiety. The conversation takes a deep turn as we delve into the dynamics of sibling relationships, the construction of personal identity, and the enormous power of cultivating a positive perception to conquer life's adversities. But be warned, it’s not all personal - Jessica doesn't hold back on giving a candid discourse on the importance of honesty, compassion and intentional use of words to avoid causing harm.
But that's not all. With a wealth of experience in human resource management, Jessica lays bare the significance of skill development in handling difficult employees and fostering business growth. She makes a compelling case for HR management courses and expounds on the pragmatism of knowing when to part ways with people to conserve time and energy. This episode is a treasure trove of inspiring narratives, practical counsel, and empowering perspectives from Jessica Amaro that could potentially revolutionize your personal and professional life. Tune in, you wouldn't want to miss this one.

Intro Lyrics
It’s Medium Ghetto
Intelligent, hood conversations, so why don’t come hang with the gang
Relatable topics, form coming up broke to the nonsense that all come along with these dames
From trust funds to trappin’, we cover it all, and with laughter
So, why don’t you come grab you a seat
From o’s to Othello, you know that we Medium Ghetto, and nothing can even compete
Outro Lyrics
It’s Medium Ghetto
And we thank y...
