2. An introduction to a new pod segment called “CC’s Pod-Pit and Pod-Peak of the Week,” where CC spills some tea about a boy she used to date

4. Examples of how CC’s core values have helped shape her life across work, romance, and family
5. CC vulnerably reveals one of her most significant core values and discusses how learned norms and conditioning delayed her realization of this value — leading to a full on identity crisis at 24-years-old

Locked ‘Me, Myself & I’ Note Overview - To start making real change, we gotta put in some work. This starts with creating your SAFE SPACE. Doing something from you and for you that's quick, simple, efficient, and accessible. Go ahead and create a locked note on your phone and name it whatever you want - CC’s note is named "Lil CC & More”. She originally used it to chat with her inner child/past self and now it's turned into her full time journal. Use your own locked note to safely connect with yourself and for CMWCC Pro-Tips!

Pro-Tip #4 - Today’s pro-tip is nice and simple! Who are our list-making lovers out there? This one's for you! In your ‘Me, Myself, and I’ locked note, you’re going to make two lists. One for the things you like and one for the things you don’t. To put it simple, a likes and dislikes list. It can really be ANYTHING, anyone, no matter how big or small. The only rule for something getting on your likes list is that it’s actually something you like, something that makes you feel good that you’d be very happy if more of it came into your life. And the only rule for getting something on your dislikes list, is that it’s something that drives you mad, that makes you angry or disgusts you, that goes against what you believe in.

Try to get at least 15 - 20 bullets on each list. Odds are, every single bullet can be tied back to one of your core values, which is the first step to identifying your core values in the first place. Once you’re done, go chill or do something else for a bit (can be for a couple hours or even a few days) and then come back to your lists and ask yourself - Am I surprised by anything on here? Is anything missing that should be on there? Keep working on your list until it feels right for you wherever you’re at today.

Then start thinking about how the bullets on your list might bucket into larger themes. Guess what?! Those larger themes are indicative of your core values, and can help guide you around what you should focus on putting your energy into so you can exist as a happier, more fulfilled you.

P.S. Here are directions for how to create a locked note on iPhone and Android.
