Have you ever looked around at home and work and felt alone in your effort?
You plan the meetings. You do the dishes. You check on your co-worker, friend, or parent. And sometimes, you wonder: Why does it always fall on me?You’re not alone in this feeling.
In our newest episode of Building Better Relationships at Home and Work, Angela and I explore the “someone else will do it” trap that so many of us have experienced, whether consciously or not.

In this podcast episode Angela Ambrosia shares about her journey of feeling and listening to the body, heart and self.

She teaches online classes and private sessions to open you to your healing gifts and natural joy. She works with people to develop their intuition and spiritual growth.
In 2019, she experienced a near-death experience after going into a coma from an aggressive cancer. Angela survived to the amazement of her medical team, friends, and family. In the years since her recovery, Angela realized she denied her own knowing that she would not die because she believed what the hospital thought was true. She is aware of how much we allow the power of others’ beliefs to overshadow our own, even denying our own life.
She encourages others to learn how to listen to their inner voice while inviting and creating spaces to share themselves with others and experience true connection.
Angela shares:
Why she became so passionate about Movement Meditation as a way to discover self-acceptance and love
Her journey as a healer and teacher
Why do we struggle with accepting our body

Welcome to Building Better Relationships at Home and Work with Angela and Patti.
We have a special guest on this podcast episode, Rebecca Ronane, Life Coach, Podcaster, and Author.
Rebecca Ronane moved from London to a small village in Provence, France, in 1995. She lives with her partner Alain and their dog Myrtle. She worked in the travel industry for thirty years; however, a breast cancer diagnosis quickly followed by a job loss in 2012 allowed her to change direction, although she didn’t feel it then.
A coaching course in 2014 opened the door to a different chapter in her life journey. Since training as a coach, she has set up her businesses, Forward After Fifty and Network Provence. As a result, she has two websites, two podcast shows, and not one but several businesses to her name. She has experienced that moving forward after fifty has the potential to be the most exciting part of your life.
A suggestion in 2021 that Rebecca writes a book was a little like looking down on someone else’s life and ambitions, as it had never been on her agenda. The book was published in January of 2023 and is called Forward After 50: The Rising Reinventors. The book gives insights into how we might limit ourselves in thinking and talking about aging. It’s about changing your mindset around aging today – start associating aging with generating instead of degenerating.
Rebecca discusses:
1. Why she became so passionate about living a great life Forward After Fifty?
2. How can women celebrate and embrace turning fifty?
3. Why do you think women fear aging?
4. How is your mindset the secret weapon towards aging?

This podcast topic came from a listener’s request about not taking everything so personally.
Why do some people or cultures make it look so easy not to take things personally and others take every little thing to heart?
Is it the environment of how we are raised?
Or do some people have DNA that can let things roll off their back or turn the other cheek with ease?
Are some people more sensitive than others because they are empathic or highly sensitive in nature?
How to overcome hurt by someone’s harsh words: Remind yourself it’s about them not about you at that moment. Maybe you did something they didn’t like. What did their words really say? Was it about the behavior? Or something else?
One tip is to watch your conditioning: What are the annoyed and angry voices in your head regarding the household chores? You will hear your expectations, you may hear your parents, but you will hear the frustration of someone else not doing what you want and thinking about what should be done.
This is your conditioning. So once you hear it. Simply say – ok – that’s my conditioning. It’s not that this person hates me or is insulting me – or wants me dead or ignores me.
This is my expectation about how things should be done. And then if you’re really angry maybe don’t speak with the other person!
But then think about how you could say to them what you want. But don’t expect them to do it the way you want because that may not be their conditioning!
Some strategies to help deal with and not take things personally:
Listen to happy, soothing, calming, or spiritual music when feelings start to surface within you.
Find something fun to do to help redirect thoughts.
Practice meditation and pray for “Letting Go” of things people have said.
Watch your reactions and triggers when around certain people. Become aware of those thoughts and assumptions. Reflect on why these reactions are happening and how you can release or address them?
With friendships, coworkers, partners and family how has taking things personally affected these relationships? What can I do to change it for the better
Are some people more sensitive than others because they are empathic or highly-sensitive in nature?
Do you feel you’re Feeling too much?
Feeling everything about you – you are the center of attention – are you the most important thing in a relationship?
What is a relationship?
A relationship is not just about you.
A relationship is like a dance – two people having a tango – push-pull. Not about just you and your feelings. ~ Angela Ambrosia
For meditations to help with hurt in relationships here is the video series “Choose the Relationship” by Angela Ambrosia. The meditations are at the end of the videos.
In this podcast episode, Angela and Patti have a conversation about women and men in the workplace and more.
(Patti) Angela, I recently saw an Instagram Reel of a young lady from Alabama who was looking for a place to do her eyelash business, and because she was a woman she was having a hard time getting a place even though her business was successful and had the money to make the rent. She even had a male friend call and the landlords were going to rent to him but not to her. This was shocking to me because I thought those days were gone.

(Angela) The Gig Economy is where everyone is moving away from full-time or part-time work to casual on-call work, as an Uber driver to an Online Entrepreneur to offering services in exchange for a fixed fee – like a coach or trainer, or other service providers. And women have jumped on this for thousands of years before what we have now as a way to provide for their families while also cooking, housekeeping, and raising their young families. The modern gig economy is also increasing the demand for work-life balance so women and men can have time to be with their families and not work full-time hours.
How can women change their mindset to feel comfortable asking for what they are worth?
Practice in the mirror asking for what you want at work.
Write a script and memorize it so the words come out easy and confident.
Say powerful daily affirmations for confidence and getting what you want.
Get a mentor or coach to work with you on strategies to get what you want.
How can we have a better balance in the workplace between men and women whether it is pay, top management, or respecting each other? We would love to hear your comments and feedback on this question.
