Unfiltered with Genelle: Two Questions and Four Agreements That Can Transform Everyday Life
One Honest Check-In.
I’m in a growth season.
Not the kind where everything is shiny and Instagram-perfect, but the kind where you're asking hard questions, doing deep reflection, and trying to build something meaningful while also staying kind to yourself.
The inspiration for this came from a spontaneous question I asked at the end of the first episode of my podcast Repeat That Again Please. I now revisit it with the guests at the end of every episode. I didn’t know it at the time, but that one question has become a framework I use often in my own life.
The latest episode of Unfiltered with Genelle is built around that moment.

So my compassion and challenge to you today is this:
🧠 Have you been kind to yourself about the things you're going through?
📍 Have you checked in with how much you're holding—at work, at home, emotionally?
✨ Have you been compassionate enough… but also, did you challenge yourself to grow today?
Did you hold yourself to your word?
Did you push yourself to do the thing that needed to get done?
Where do you need more compassion?
Where could you use more challenge?
These aren’t easy questions, but they’re useful ones. Especially now, as we enter a new month—a clean slate and an opportunity to recalibrate.
I also shared how The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz have helped me anchor this balance—being impeccable with your word, not taking things personally, not making assumptions, and always doing your best. These four ideas continue to help me navigate the tension between grace and grit.
Whether you're leading a team, running a business, chasing a dream—or simply trying to keep your head above water—this episode is for you.
