How to Thrive from Criticism - Curves Welcome
Curves Welcome with Suzie Carr
Let’s face it, receiving criticism can be stressful and deflating to your confidence depending on how it’s delivered, but more importantly, how you interpret it. See that’s the key right there. With anything that can potentially affect us, it’s our interpretation of information that can either make or break us. If we can learn to open up to critique, we can improve.
Join me for this episode to explore ways you can thrive through criticism.

Curves Welcome with Suzie Carr
From time to time we crave a reboot in life. We may be tired and in need of something new or perhaps we were tossed out into the wild by something outside of our control. Either one of these leads us to the same circumstance – we need to start fresh or else risk falling into the negative abyss of dissatisfaction and stunted growth.
Join me in this episode to explore ways to make a fresh start.

How to Deal with Empathy Fatigue - Curves Welcome
Curves Welcome with Suzie Carr
I’d describe myself as an empath. When someone is hurt, I’m hurt. When someone is sad, I’m sad. When someone is in a bad mood, I’m in a bad mood. I seem to absorb the energy of whatever is happening around me. This can be all consuming and detrimental to my well-being. I realized after a while that taking on the weight of the world’s problems would destroy me if I didn’t set some safety measures and boundaries into place.
Today I wanted to share some of those.

4 Ways to Help you Live a Life that Matters - Curves Welcome
Curves Welcome with Suzie Carr
I ran into a woman I used to work with at the university when out grocery shopping a few weeks ago. When I asked how she was doing, she began to cry. Not just cry, but sob. The tears rolled down her cheeks faster than she could swipe them away and she kept apologizing for getting so emotional.
This woman, I’ll name Mary for the sake of this podcast, lives a typical life. The truth is, most of us are overwhelmed by the enormity of tasks and obligations we agree to tackle.
In this episode I share 4 ways to help you stop overcommitting so you can live a life that holds more meaning.
