1: Enough: Good Enough for the Collective

“I really love this idea of treating enoughness as a way of being moderate. And in that moderation, as you would with chocolate or running, or anything that you indulge yourself in, we always hear, moderation is the healthy way. So, keeping that in mind is this idea of enoughness, and your energy, keeping it at a moderate level and wanting to keep that balance.”

Have you ever considered that good enough is, well, enough? Welcome to the very first episode of The Good Enough Podcast with your hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond! In this heart-to-heart discussion, our hosts grapple with the impact of yearning for the elusive ‘good enough’ and unveil the effects it can have on confidence, self-worth, and self-love. They underscore the importance of celebrating small victories and realizing that showing up, even in the smallest ways, is a victory in itself.

Imagine your home as a metaphor for your inner self. What are you holding on to? What clutter are you not letting go of that mirrors what’s within? Jessica and McKenzie reflect on decluttering, not only as a form of self-care but as a symbolic act. Communication, they find, plays a critical role. Sharing how we truly feel with loved ones can temper overwhelming emotions.

Life can feel like a high-wire act, constantly seeking balance. They delve into how moderation can balance our lives and promote a sense of enoughness and recognize that past traumas, though painful, can provide enlightening insights. Listen in and wade into these waters of embracing enoughness and the transformative power it can wield in our lives.
