In this episode, Sarah and Meaghan dive deep into the world of accountability. We explore how owning our actions, thoughts, and feelings can lead to personal empowerment and improved relationships. Our discussion highlights the importance of self-awareness as a cornerstone for accountability. By being aware of our emotions and reactions, rather than blaming external factors, we can foster honesty and curiosity. We also provide strategies for cultivating the practice of accountability.
