The Rules Are Made Up

The Rules Are Made Up

By Nina Hannert-Nimmo

The Rules Are Made Up is a podcast for curious overthinkers and perfectionists who want to explore the intersection of mental wellbeing, personal growth and everything else in our lives - because we're one whole human! Together we'll start to question and dismantle the rules and shoulds we live our lives by - because they're made up! So why not make our own?

22 - self-enquiry

22 - self-enquiry

In this episode we're chatting about the concept of self-inquiry and why it can be beneficial to create your own practice around this. 

I'm also inviting you to check out my 8 week group coaching experience The Inner Compass where we discuss ways to practice self-enquiry in a supportive environment.

I also said I'd drop some additional resources in the shownotes, so here they are: 

Mindful Productivity - Self-Check-Ins

Entrepreneurial Outlaws - Cyclical Planning (includes journal prompts)

21 - Let's chat about core values

In this episode we're talking about core values - what they are, why I recommend you find yours (if you don't know them already) and how to do that.

I'm also inviting you to check out my 8 week group coaching experience The Inner Compass where identifying your core values is one of THE first things we do. I truly believe they're vital for guiding our decision making (like a compass... get it? I'll show myself out...) and understanding where our actions may not have been aligned so we can start to make tweaks. 

I mention James Clear's list of core values you can review to find yours
