The SHE Word S5/EP 11 - Women Transforming the Negative into Positive

We all know THAT person, don’t we? The one friend or family member who always seems to be positive and optimistic, even in the most challenging circumstances. Well, it might surprise you to know that only 10% of our attitude - positive or negative - is related to circumstance. Attitude and outlook is where our power lies, our mindset is what can take us to great heights, to enable us to overcome hurdles and manage the daily challenges in our lives, and enabling is to achieve is the aim of this episode of The SHE Word.
It is little surprise that we often default to a negative mindset, given that the powerful influences around us often drive us feel defeated. Even in everyday language, we as women are frequently faced with negative connotations; ‘Drama Queen’, ‘Throws like a girl’, ‘Women Drivers’. Or inferring that the dominant partner ‘wears the pants in a relationship’, telling someone to ‘Grow a pair’ - implying a weakness that’s tied to gender, or telling someone to ‘Man up’ - suggesting that it is the men that are the tough and strong gender. We may even use these terms ourselves without realising the connotations and the impact that they have.
Wherever we are in your life journey, NOW is a great time to take a look at what is influencing us, holding us back, blocking our potential or making us feel less than we are - and to gain a clear understanding of how we can shift the negative into the positive.
In this life-transforming show, host Trudy Kerr sits down to discuss with three experts to see how we can change our mindset. Clinical Psychologist Dr Rose Galea returns to The SHE Word to bring her powerful perspective to the conversation. Emma Hogg - psychotherapist, lifestyle strategist and the founder of the self-development agency, A Life I Choose, brings lived experience combined with professional expertise, and Mireille Pellegrini Petit shares her insight with a background in Clinical Psychology and a specialisation in Positive Psychology.
This show looks at why we might look at things with a negative perspective, the origins of why we often doubt ourselves or question our potential. The ladies discuss what might be blocking us from moving forward and how we can recognise negative habits in ourselves, and others. And this edition of The SHE Word offers practical, life transforming tips and guidance as to how each one of us can build positive patterns and pursue a life based on positivity, peace and success.
This show really is a must for every woman, of all ages.
