EP 204 // Our Worth Is Still There // Christine Baird
Worthfull Project
It's our season finale episode for Season 6 of the show! I'm reflecting on what I learned about my self-worth this year, especially in light of it being the most intense year of my life thus far. I love the perspective and clearing the end of the year offers, and I'm grateful for all the lessons I've learned this year about caring for my self-worth and what I'm responsible for. Wishing you a happy holiday season and a deep, peaceful sense of your own worth. You can email me your feedback from this season to :)

EP 203 // Showing Who We Really Are // Briana Johnson and Tiffany Sanchez
Worthfull Project
I've been looking forward to this guest episode for months! Maybe even years. The stars aligned and I got to sit down with two of my good friends, Bri and Tif, for a beautiful conversation about what we've learned from showing who we really are to the world -- in creativity, relationships, and how we speak. And of course, how that has built our self-worth. It was a delicious conversation and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Links mentioned:

EP 202 // Worth When It's Hard // Christine Baird
Worthfull Project
Something I've been thinking about is what my worth can do when really big issues are happening all around me. When the world is in chaos, people are suffering, and the problems are huge, it's easy to feel like my worth has no merit or way to help. But, as always, there is a role for our worth to play even in times like these.

EP 201 // Less Egos, More Amigos // Christine Baird
Worthfull Project
I re-discovered a delightful comic this week that I had saved months ago because it said so much in so few words. It's by the artist Harry Hambley and simply says, "Less egos more amigos." There is so much wisdom in this little mantra, and I'm going to try it on as my daily reminder for the next few months and report back what I learn about my self-worth as I seek out less egos and more amigos -- and practice this myself. Mentioned in this episode:

EP 200 // 6 Years of Studying Self-Worth // Christine Baird and Rebecca Regnier
Worthfull Project
Friends, here we are at episode 200 of the Worthfull Project podcast! I barely saw it coming, but I didn't want to miss the chance to reflect on the things I've learned about self-worth through six years (so far) of talking about it on this show. I'm so delighted to welcome back my dear friend and multiple-time guest on the podcast, Rebecca, to guest host this episode and . . . interview me! She is, as you will hear, quite the student of self-worth herself, and is a savvy coach who asks great questions. Thank you for listening, thank you for being on this journey with me, and thank you for...

EP 199 // What Surprises Me About Worth // Christine Baird
Worthfull Project
I'm back from an unplanned summer break. And we are almost at episode 200! Wow. I'm excited to share again what I'm learning about worth in this season -- because it's a season where I'm working every day far out of my comfort zone, on stuff I'm not good at, and it feels like my performance-based worth is at a low. But my innate worth is unchanged. And that dissonance is a surprise.

EP 198 // Words We Speak to Ourselves // Christine Baird
Worthfull Project
“It's easier to build our self worth with kind words when things are going well." It's just me today on the episode, reminding myself of some basic self-worth tips. I've noticed that it's easier to build my self-worth when things are going well -- and that's important to do so that when I'm in a tough chapter I have some self-worth reserves to lean on. One of the most effective ways to build our self-worth is to verbally acknowledge what we like and respect about ourselves that isn't related to the results we create. And that's easier to do when we are feeling good about...

EP 197 // When It's Good to Be Empty // Brandy Lee
Worthfull Project
“Are we making space for people or are we making space for stuff?" In another installment of me catching up with my friends on the podcast, I got to have a conversation with Brandy, who you might remember from the bonus series Worthfull Home. She is so wise, so kind, and so productive -- which is why I was fascinated by her take on the benefit of slowing down, letting yourself empty out, and not trying to fill yourself up right away. I loved this conversation because I learned new things about myself and about the worth of being empty for a season. That's when the muse often...

EP 196 // Taking Space and Singing the Melody // Emily Snyder
Worthfull Project
“You're not going to get picked apart in the support role nearly as much as somebody gets picked apart in the melody or the spotlight role." I have been texting friends I want to catch up with and asking them to come over to the studio to record a podcast as our hang out. It's a real win win. This episode is with my good friend Emily Snyder, who was a guest on two of our bonus episodes from season 3, linked below. She's an incredibly smart organizational consultant and she's worked in lots of women's groups. But our conversation ended up being about giving ourselves permission...

EP 195 // Expressing Worth with and without Words // Heather Francis
Worthfull Project
“Maybe owning our worth with our words is about being calm and trusting that we know the right channel and medium to communicate what we're trying to communicate." My good friend Heather came back on the podcast after a couple of years to talk with me about ways she's learned to communicate her worth without words . . . and when words are really useful. If you didn't catch Heather's first episode, she's a dancer by background and works in arts education. As we were talking, I had a revelation about my natural style of communicating and how I've been operating outside of that...
info_outline"I've learned a different way to value my work, my contribution, and to communicate that to the people I work with."
I just spent a week at a couple of lovely client events in California and I'm reflecting on how different my way of working has evolved from my early days of media production and event programming. I have worked a lot of events in the last 8 years, and most of them were completely exhausting. After I left LA, I thought my days of working events were done because I was so burned out from them. But after the pandemic, and after my own work worth and boundaries had evolved, I realized that I could set different parameters for how I could work. That's what I did, and it has completely changed my experience working events. I wanted to share how I've evolved my relationship to this kind of work from being pure exhaustion to what I call "easy magic."
