How We All Need to be Compassionate and Show Empathy

In this episode Donna and Nadine explore what it means to be compassionate and how we can all take care of one another. Listen to others and try to understand them. It is also important to try and put yourself in the other person's shoes. We need to not be quick to judge someone else's life when we are not living it. All of us have our struggles, so if we take a moment and really listen to someone, and care about what they may be going through in that moment, we will all be compassionate.

Thanks But No Thanks - Re-evaluating Your Relationships

Reciprocity is the key to an equitable relationship. Whether it is a friend, or a boyfriend, we need to evaluate what that person brings to the table. One thing to ask yourself is, "Do they add value to my life?" And what we mean by that, is does this person add to my life, or are they taking energy and positivity from it?

This is not about whether or not someone is giving us monetary value, it is about how they contribute to our well being, growth and happiness. In this episode, Nadine shares a humorous story to illustrate one of the ways you can be sure that someone is subtracting value as opposed to adding it to your life.

V is for Vagina - Overcoming Challenges with Menopause

 This episode is “off road” from what we have done for previous topics in Teach People How to Treat You. Today is about encouraging middle aged women to Teach Yourself to Treat You. Particular focus is on vaginal dryness and thinning walls as a result of menopause, perimenopause and early menopause as a result of health issues. Donna and Nadine have taken a serious yet fun approach in opening up discussions on this topic. The female body endures a lot through its lifetime From getting our periods in our early teen years, to child bearing, hormone changes and the road towards menopause. When we arrive at this, the latest stage in our body’s preparation for the former points, Mother Nature is often harsh by leaving us to deal with vaginal dryness. Ugh….. why? Seems to us that we should have some form of reprieve or reward after everything our V has gone through but………Donna has something very interesting to share on how we can treat ourselves to rejuvenating our vaginas post child bearing years so we can enjoy the pleasures of sex rather than dreading its discomfort.

Thank you for listening and let us know if you have any questions or comments! Donna's Doctor, who offers this treatment is Dr. Sharma in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. His number is 1-905-849-8855 Make sure you tell him that Donna referred you from this podcast.

Don’t Let Anyone Take Away Your Self Worth

What are you Worth?

You are invaluable and you need to know that and carry that in confidence. In our society today, people are considered dispensable. How many times have we heard an employer say, *any one can be replaced.* While the position or spot may be refilled, that doesn’t mean you are dispensable. Not one person is dispensable. Each one of us has unique attributes that one way or the other has us bring a different value to the table. While our latest video is geared primarily towards the work place, Donna and Nadine discuss the importance of knowing your self worth and to embrace it. More importantly, work towards not letting anyone take it away from you under any circumstances. Maybe you are no longer the right fit for the job you’ve been doing, or your personal relationship is not continuing on the same journey it has since it started. Often in those instances when a relationship is coming to an end, there are disparaging comments about the person on the other side of the relationship. Don’t let those allow you to diminish your self worth. If it’s not in the current relationship, somewhere and with someone else it will be. Watch our video to see how Donna and Nadine feel we can all value ourselves more. Thanks for listening. Please leave your comments and subscribe.
