Episode 370: Perfectionism, Courage, and Personal Power with Martina Barnes
from Make Some Noise with Andrea Owen · host Andrea Owen
Happy Wednesday! It’s been a full week since we watched or listened in horror as rioters breached the U.S. Capitol. In this episode, I have a quick chat (before our interview) with Jessica Sharp, my personal friend, and DEI consultant. As I’ve conveyed before, personal development and social justice work are directly connected, so Jessica and I discuss our thoughts on, “This isn’t who we are” (referring to the U.S.) and more. Switching gears, when it comes to personal development and behaviors like perfectionism, people-pleasing, and over-achieving - the goal isn’t eradicating them. Instead, it’s recognizing when these behaviors jump into the driver’s seat and learning to draw on tools to help maneuver the road ahead. This week, Martina Barnes joins me to talk about these behaviors, how to recognize when they are taking over our “life bus,” and how to harness your reliable personal power. Martina G. Barnes is an experienced psychotherapist, life fulfillment coach, and master intuitive who helps high-achieving women transform the areas in their lives where they lack reliable personal power. She teaches women practical ways to shift how they show up for themselves and express Reliable Personal Power in every area of their lives. In this episode you’ll hear: Recognizing that personal development work and social justice work are interwoven. (5:16) Common default behaviors women struggle with such as perfectionism, control, and people-pleasing and how Martina applies those behaviors to what she calls the “Life Bus” analogy. (20:00) What blocks high-achieving women from having Reliable Personal Power. (25:20) Not wanting to be perceived a certain way (ie: a bitch or aggressive, when standing up for yourself). (27:25) Opening ourselves to deeper intimacy and friendships - courage brings so many beautiful rewards. (34:10) How trauma impacts connection to your intuition.
