About this listen

The Place I Take is a gentle reminder to notice the place you take in your own life and in the lives of others. It’s an invitation to slow down, pause, and breathe in the middle of busy, demanding days. Think of it as a quiet presence, a gentle push, a spark, a hand on your shoulder when things feel heavy. Through honest, human conversations, this podcast reminds you that you’re not alone, and that there’s space for you, exactly as you are 🤍Diane G. Social Sciences

  • Fear of Being Judged: Taking Your Place Anyway
    Feb 1 2026

    Fear of being judged often shows up when we step outside the roles that once felt safe.

    In this episode, I reflect on my own experience of being seen, starting this podcast, putting myself out there, and realizing how differently we treat ourselves compared to others.

    A quiet reflection on identity, fear, and choosing to take your place anyway.

    What does “me time” really mean and why does it feel so hard to make space for it?

    From daily rituals to gentle boundaries, this conversation is an invitation to choose yourself without guilt, even in a busy, full life.

  • How to Build Habits That Actually Last
    Jan 18 2026

    In January, motivation is high.

    By February, most habits are gone.


    In this episode, we talk about why building habits often feels so hard and why it’s not a lack of discipline or willpower.

    We explore why motivation alone isn’t enough, how vague or unrealistic goals set us up for frustration, and how shifting toward clarity, achievable steps, and small wins can make change feel possible again.


    If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of starting strong and giving up quietly, this episode is for you.
