Tan Lines

Are our lives really built on the choices we make? And if they are, how can we be sure we’re making the right ones?  Episode 5 of “Ted Lasso” lets us dig into some meaty themes – such as the connection between agency and choice, toxic masculinity, being vulnerable in relationships and the importance of change. Jeff also tells a story about the time he was mansplained in Portugal, and Dimple overanalyzes the titles of “Ted Lasso” episodes. We also discuss the strength of the show’s female friendships, the power of reframing our challenges and focusing on gratitude.  “Even that concept of believe - we have a choice. We have a choice to believe in ourselves, to believe that we can do something. We have a choice to find the courage to take those difficult decisions. At the end of the day we can just sit back and hope for the best. But I think a lot of what I felt coming out of this was how much choice we have in a given moment.” - Dimple  In this episode 01:31 - Last week’s lessons 03:34 - The concept of manifestation 05:54 - Taking accountability for ourselves 09:03 - Dimple’s interpretation of “Tan Lines” 13:30 - Relationships as one of the episode’s themes 14:21 - Ted’s first big monologue 21:56 - Ted and the “believe” sign 26:46 - Jeff on being in a relationship where you’re walking on eggshells 28:24 - How the show’s soundtrack makes the episode more powerful 35:51 - The groomzilla and the bridezilla 40:42 - Toxic leaders and toxic people in the workplace 46:06 - Women supporting women 54:12 - Reframing with gratitude Resources & Links #WWTLD  https://www.wwtldpodcast.com/ https://twitter.com/wwtldpodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/wwtldpodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/wwtldpodcast/ Learn More About Dimple Dhabalia  https://www.rootsintheclouds.com/ https://twitter.com/dimpstory https://www.instagram.com/dimpstory/ https://www.facebook.com/dimpledhabalia https://www.linkedin.com/in/dimpledhabalia/ Why Radically Human Leadership Is More Important Than Ever  https://www.rootsintheclouds.com/blog/why-radically-human-leadership-is-more-important-than-ever 4 Steps to Creating A Human-Centered Organization https://www.rootsintheclouds.com/blog/004-4-steps-to-creating-a-human-centered-organization Learn More About Jeff Harry  https://www.rediscoveryourplay.com/ https://twitter.com/jeffharryplays https://www.instagram.com/jeffharryplays/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffharryplays/ https://www.youtube.com/jeffharryplays https://www.tiktok.com/@jeffharryplays Building Psychological Safety At Work https://www.rediscoveryourplay.com/building-psychological-safety Solve Your Problem With Play https://www.rediscoveryourplay.com/coaching Jeff’s Positive Psychology Playlist https://www.rediscoveryourplay.com/playlist
