Hey, there! I begin this week\u2019s episode with a tea talk (cinnamon tea in an astronaut mug) and a life update about social service, vacation, and social life. I introduce competitivity with a clarification, anecdote, and structure for the conversation. Then, I talk about how exhausting competitivity can be: placing pressure on output, realising that I can\u2019t be the best at everything, and understanding that I\u2019m part of a team (and I should start thinking like that!). Next, I admit that competitivity is still important: it pushes us to improve, but, it can come with a burden, and it is important to distinguish collective from individual efforts. Afterward, I imagine what it would look like if these two aspects could coexist harmoniously. I wrap up with some takeaways, and weekly favourites in face masks, T-shirts, and groups before signing off. \n\n\nTO GET DIRECTLY TO THE CONTENT, SKIP TO 9:26\n\n\n\nFOLLOW THE PODCAST\u2019S INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/theasteapodcast?igshid=r04b2760fkdl\nCONTACT ME THROUGH: theasteapodcast@gmail.com (for business inquiries, sponsorships or to tell me what you think about this podcast!)\nSEND ME A VOICE MESSAGE: https://anchor.fm/th351a-beaury/message\nCHECK OUT THE DESIGNERS OF MY COVER ART: https://instagram.com/sofiarrublacreative?igshid=1xtsd1w69zkkl\nhttps://instagram.com/cuerpobaldio?igshid=1jq5cb59nm2z\nListen to my other podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/3RhYyCBLVwBuNimne4zVCO?si=AG_LzDsuQdqBYedSmFOkfQ\nFollow my TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMJwKjr2L/ \nSTART YOUR PODCAST NOW BY HEADING TO anchor.fm\n\n\nCHECK OUT THE THINGS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE (IN ORDER OF APPEARANCE):\nListen to my episode about not knowing what to do with my life (on Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/episode/3Z81WAakNrMftxUfpqdpmB?si=FghjHdhBQvyyXILABpD58w&dl_branch=1\nBren\xe9 Brown\nListen to the Perfectionism Project podcast (on Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/show/5QAsL8roKR67O1GO2LiXvS?si=ULzclph6S8GlaP_yoI6tbw&dl_branch=1\nListen to my episode on validation (on Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/episode/53iy3FZiBtQD14avRiD9R9?si=DUnMMlgzRv2W2iQKL7D5kQ&dl_branch=1\n\u201cListo el pollo\u201d\n\u201cDarle la 10\u201d\nDesigual\n\n\nHERE ARE SOME QUOTES I LIKED FROM THIS WEEK\u2019S EPISODE:\n19:20 = \u201cHow much of what I\u2019m doing is being seen?\u201d\n19:40 = \u201cYou cannot be the best at everything!\u201d\n21:20 = \u201cYou can\u2019t compare variables of different nature.\u201d\n22:00 = \u201cAt the end of the day, this is a group effort. We\u2019re all in this together. We don\u2019t need to be better or worse than each other if we have a common goal.\u201d\n23:05 = \u201cAt the end of the day, what really matters is the end result.

The fact that you contributed is enough.\u201d\n25:30 = \u201cIn a competitive environment you\u2019re always going to be pushing boundaries, going out of you comfort zone and showing up.\u201d\n28:45 = \u201cBut why would you need to save yourself in a group that has a common goal?\u201d\n30:55 = \u201cWhen you are coming from a healthy place, you don\u2019t feed off of competition\u201d\n32:00 = \u201cNobody\u2019s taking your validation away from you\u201d\n32:00 = \u201cYou don\u2019t feel drained after one failure and you don\u2019t feel like all your problems are solved after you do one thing well. The reality is, no one situation changes who you are\u201d\n33:45 = \u201cFeel comfortable with who you are, but also continue to grow, but not from a place where you feel you are lacking\u201d\n34:30 = \u201cYou can\u2019t give 100% to everything, because 100% is the total of all you have\u201d\n\n\nThanks for tuning in, have a beautiful week!
