Closely Related Podcast Episode 1: When your ducks aren't in a row
Posted on January 04, 2021 by Samantha Strom, One of Thousands of Career Coaches on Noomii.
The hosts tackle questions about being ready for a relationship even if you don’t have it all together and how to make a good first impression.
What do you do when you want something, but your head is getting in the way? Our first letter writer knows that he wants a relationship, but he’s worried that he isn’t in the right financial place to start dating. We explore his doubts, and the anxious voice in our own heads that loves to ask “what if this goes wrong?” We also dive into how attachment theory can explain why some people are afraid to get close in relationships because they’re not “perfect.”
Our second letter writer just started a new job in the pandemic (fun times!) and is struggling to make connections and prove their competence. We discuss ways to navigate asking for help, presenting yourself as professional, and being proactive right off the bat.
