    In this episode, Sara and Joe talk about their long-distance relationship and how they manage it, what they've learned and some practical tips for people going through the same situation.It's always wonderful to be together, but it's equally important to put effort into the relationship when you're apart. As Sara and Joe reiterate: Put the work in. It's worth it. Here are a few of their tips that make the love feel ongoing even when you're not physically together: 1.Create space and time for the other person. Check-in frequently. Joe sends Sara a text each morning that she then wakes up to and feels the love. Joe points out to go the distance. If that flight to get to see the person is interfering with another obligation, you work it out and get to your partner in one way or another. 2.Consistency. This is a good tip for everyone. Long distance or not. Be conscious of reassuring the other person you are there for them and what you feel for them. Be consistent in your actions. 3.Leave the past in the past. There is no need to bring the past up in the current relationship space. Use the time together for you both in the present moment. Each visit is special. Do your own special reminders that keep you surrounded by the person when you're not together. Joe has photos dating back to 1991! Come up with your own ways to keep the person with you even when they're not there. Eventually, things may workout where long-distance isn't necessary anymore and you can be together. Here's to love surviving in all different ways! IG:https://www.instagram.com/saraschultingkranz/ Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@saraschultingkranz./about Learn more about your ad choices.

    How to Grow Younger with Sara and Joe

    Sara and Joe decided for Valentine's Day they wanted to hike the Grand Canyon rim to rim. Joe had never been there, and it's one of Sara's favorite places. The hike was more difficult and took longer than they anticipated. Not only was it harder, Joe wanted to take in the scenery and they just went at a slower pace-but enjoyed almost all of it. (listen to the podcast for the tale of one less sleeping pad than needed) It was cold. And the north rim had a lot of snow, so conditions were also at points, challenging. The real headline is through it all, they both loved being there and being there together. They enjoyed their Spaghetti dinner looking out at the most beautiful views, laughed a lot, and overall made it a great adventure. The podcast talks a lot about mid-life and how to, in fact, Grow Younger. Both Joe and Sara feel that they are doing that. They both appreciate and have gratitude for life right now. They are in good places after each of their individual challenges and do not want to slow down. They want to keep making time for the things they enjoy. People, as they get older, put limits on themselves. For Sara and Joe, they want to expand experiences and keep mind, body and spirit aligned. They definitely both feel they are growing younger. Their tips for growing younger: 1.Always stay fit. Create space for physical activity. It doesn't have to be into the Grand Canyon. Any type of moving you prefer: a walk, a small hike, a bike ride, etc. 2.Keep your mind sharp and always be curious 3.Prioritize the right relationships and purpose. Do what you love. Have no regrets and keep living! Social Media: IG: https://www.instagram.com/saraschultingkranz/ You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/@saraschultingkranz./about Learn more about your ad choices.

    Calculated vs Unhealthy Risks

     Joe and Sara were going to Mammoth for a few day hike and camping. First, what usually takes 4 hours to get to the top, took 7 hours.  It was a long, hard climb. Partially due to being very prepared, with enough food, clothing, etc in case of emergency. While climbing up, they passed a fellow hiker who said the weather was turning, but Joe and Sara had looked and weather report said sunny and 30 degrees. So, they continued. The hiker said snow and rain were coming and recommended they sleep in the valley for protection. But Sara and Joe took a calculated risk. They preferred mountaintops and views and had hiked a long distance.They really did not want to turn back. Plus no bad weather in sight. They were rewarded with amazing views and set camp right near the lake. At 10:50 pm, Sara got for a bathroom break. It was a beautiful night. Then, 45 minutes later, the wind gusts started. They barely slept thru the night as the wind howled and the sleet came. But they were glad they were there. They do like the extremes and were ok through the night, but as the sleet and snow came, they made the decision to cut their outing short and descend that morning. It was beautiful as they made their way back through the new snow and quiet. So, what is a good risk vs and unhealthy risk? They took the risk of continuing on their climb, with the reward of amazing quiet, views and nature. But, when do we decide what is a calculated risk vs an unhealthy one. Joe and Sara's 4 points to assess: Analysis- Weigh the pros and cons.  And have a back-up plan. Preparedness  -Always be prepared for what goes right and  what can go wrong. Motivation -    What's your motivation? Is it worth the slight risk? Potential outcome of taking this risk- Consider others/who it may affect. Is it a healthy risk? What could happen at worst? In Sara and Joe's opinion, a calculated risk is better than staying on the couch and missing out on the experience. Here's to well calculated adventures!

    Sara and Joe talk in this episode all about knowing the right time to leave a relationship or a job. Sara says she has at times stayed too long - when it seems harder to leave than just to stay. Then one day enough is enough and you leave. Once onto your new life, you reflect and realize you wish you had known how much fun it is on the other side - And how much happier you are. Listen to Joe and Sara's 6 takeaways. When any of these hit, it's time to take a serious look at the choice of staying or leaving your relationship or your job. Trust. Once this is broken it is hard to recover. This goes for relationship or workplace. Are you exhausted? Are you around energy vampire(s)? Do you feel unhappy? What's the opportunity for Growth? Is it a dead-end or is there room to grow? Are you ignoring red flags? If you are, you will get burned. Don't turn away from these “godwinks”. Are you valued? Does your partner or workmates or boss value and take an interest in you? You deserve respect. Sara uses this question to reflect on a current situation: When you are about to take your last breath, ask that self: What would you want for me? Stay or go? That “older” self will let you know what you should do now, and seek to live without major regrets. The bottom line is don't always play it safe. Reflect on how you are feeling often. Don't avoid issues. Live Boldly whether your answer is to stay or to go.

    Los Angeles is going through one of it's biggest catastrophic events right now. Sara shares thoughts on life's traumas, what to say to someone when they are going through a hard time and also addresses survivor's guilt. Statistics show that 70% of us will go through at least one traumatic event. Sara went through a natural disaster when a tornado ripped through her town when she was young. Her best friend lost everything and the community came together. Sara also went through another “Lifequake” when she dismantled her home and moved with her sons to another home during her divorce. She has also been mourning for all of her most loved mountains and hikes above Pacific Palisades and Altadena, that are no longer there due to the fires. Sara talks about being prepared ourselves: Nothing stays the same. We live through constant changes. What are some things we can do or say to others' going through their traumas? 1.Reach out. That is the most simple step to show your concern. 2.Acknowledge the loss and express support. 3. Offer help. Ask what you can do. Clothes? Bring food? Contribute to a Go Fund Me? 4. Be empathetic but not overbearing. 5. Reassure them. Let them know they are not alone. Let them know you will be there now and down the line. Final thoughts: Give yourself grace with any guilt you may feel. Remember we are not alone. And try not to put off for tomorrow what you can do today. I am here for all of you.

    As we enter the new year, Sara shares how important Forgiveness is, not only in our personal lives, but in our professional and business lives as well. We all communicate and better and feel better when we leave grudges behind. None of us can be perfect all of the time, so let's remember to be forgiving of others. Sara talks about her 3 reasons Forgiveness is so important in life and work: 1.It promotes better conflict resolution. It promotes teamwork and collaboration. 2.It is important in relationships. Your most important relationship is with yourself. Forgive yourself first. This can lead to being happier with yourself and better relationships with others. 3.It promotes growth. If in business we are forgiving of others, then people won't be afraid to suggest and/or try new things. They can get creative without fear of negative reactions. Sara also tells the story of a trip with Joe and her son to visit colleges. It highlights how important it is to make things happen. Take the chance, make the effort. It's the only way you may get great results. And someone has to do it, it may as well be YOU!! So, here's to a great 2025, making things happen, and not holding grudges.

    In this episode, Sara talks about the chaos of information and misinformation bombarding us at every turn and the task of distinguishing true from false. The true north of getting through this, is listening to ourselves and our inner knowing. Sara gives the example of reading a story on social media and knowing deep inside that it couldn't be true. After scrolling to the very bottom, she read “this is for entertainment purposes only. This did not really happen.” How many of us don't scroll to the end? It is so hard to know what's real and what isn't. The toll this takes is huge. We start to not know and not trust anything. So, that is the time to take a pause, connect again with your inner self, and listen to answers that come to us when we are still. You will know what you know. For the new year, 2025, don't get caught up in it all to the point where you question yourself. Question the information, not yourself. And when you connect to yourself, you can more easily connect with others. Here's to a Happy 2025! Sara is going into it with the the way she lives her life: With Truth, Inspiration and Hope. We wish you a New Year of truth, clarity and trust in yourself!

    2025: Instead of goal setting, Try this!

    The new year is approaching. We always hear about setting our goals for the new year and 2025 is almost upon us. Sara talks about spinning “goals” on their head a bit, and she shares her new way of approaching what she wants to accomplish for 2025 in this episode. Goals are great. It's important to write down what you want to accomplish, as it makes it clear and you can refer to it. Sara definitely says she's all for goal setting if that's what works for you. Her new twist though, that's working for her, is flipping it to “What is Your Intention?” She wants the best of herself, to be authentic, share her gifts, be a better Leader. And she loves to simplify it to this question: “Who do you want to be the last day of 2025?” If you don't know today, it will come and you can define it throughout the year. She also uses this: “I ask my 108 year old self What would I say about my life” and it gets her to think seriously of each year reflecting on who she is and who she wants to be every year. By thinking this way, Sara says you sort of retro-fit it. You work backwards to work towards what you want to be on that last day of the New Year. So remember to: Define where you want to be, How you want to feel, Who you want to be, What does your business look like, etc on the last day of 2025. You may want to try it this way and see if it works for you! Keep us posted on your journey!!

    In this episode, Sara talks about Consistency. How can we be consistent in our own lives to build our goals, when we are pulled in so many directions? Sara gives us some tips for making consistency work for us: Be clear on your goals. Designate what you want to achieve for Q1, Q2, etc. She is an advocate of smaller goals. Don't start with goals for 3 years. Stick with first quarter of the year, next quarter, etc. Ask what success looks like. What do you want to achieve? We often want it all NOW, which isn't helpful. Slow and steady wins the race. Develop routines and systems. Block scheduling works well for Sara. She looks at emails, then exercises, etc, all in 2 hour blocks. Communicate and Reinforce your expectations. Say what you need to yourself and to others. Set agreements with them. Let them know what you need to do, what you may not be there for. Agreements work both ways to feel clear- and helps others and you be supportive through the process. A New Year is approaching and what better time to set your goals, approach with Consistency and Go for your Win!

    So, it's that time of year again- a time where we honor and show love and care through gift-giving. Sara talks about the points to think of when figuring out individual gifts. She definitely wants us to know that often times, the best gifts are not bought at a store. There are gifts of “experiences” for the recipient and/or the giver and recipient together. Sometimes there can be home-made gifts like pottery or a meaningful framed photograph. Sometimes it can be a concept: Sara shares that one year she gave her sons money and gave them explicit instructions about talking to a financial planner and helped them begin to understand the world of savings, investing, and looking towards their financial future. It was something the boys did together and was meaningful in a different way than a store bought gift. So, how do you start to think of meaningful gifts for those you care about? First is to pay attention to what the person likes. Sara so appreciated when Joe knew the shampoo and conditioner she always uses, and made sure to have it in his bathroom for her. It shows caring and noticing what brings the other person some joy. Here are some steps from Sara: Pay attention to what each person likes, what they mention they need, etc. Give experiences you know fits the person or something you know they have been hesitant to take the first step. It can be hiking a mountain together and getting them some of the gear, etc. Notice what's important to their own goals and dreams. Help them towards that. Know their values. It can be anything from guitar lessons to some part of starting a business, etc. Most important is to get creative, don't assume you need to get a sweater at the store (though that's great, too). There are many things you can do or make that truly value the person and show how much you care about them. And finally, find the JOY in GIVING this holiday season!!!

When you know what's right for you and it's time to shift to that, it is hard work, but Sara stresses the point that you are NOT starting over which can sound drastic, you are rather Starting AGAIN. You have learned from previous experience, ideas and solutions that you have already created in your life. This can lessen the fear of this new territory - your foundation has been set. Sara talks about moving toward Keynote speaking which she realized was the culmination of all her experiences and her passionately wanting to share what she's learned with a large audience. This episode is about moving from INTIMIDATION to MOTIVATION.

Find people that can help you and brainstorm with you to create what you want to create. Reverse engineer: See and feel the end-result of what you want. See yourself there already.

Sara talks to all of her listeners and knows many are going through the creation of a new business and the hard work, exhaustive twists and turns, and questioning that this entails. After her “lifequake” Sara knew she had a lot to share, but it took a bit to figure out how to do that and what they real messaging was. She started with a blog, and her coaching and her love of nature, and it coalesced into her first adventure retreat down the Grand Canyon.

These progressed to more of those and other adventure retreats, plus this podcast, her new site, and knowing she is meant to speak to large groups led to her preparing her Keynote Speaker reel and talks.

    Do you sometimes feel like you may be “too much” for your partner? Do you sometimes feel like they want you to “dim your light” a bit? Is your confidence lessened from their reaction to you? Sara and Joe talk about how it's not really ok for someone to not grant you space for all of your amazingness. This can be in a relationship, a friendship, a job- stay aware when others are making you feel like you need to pull back. It's most times not at all about you- it's usually something in them that makes them uncomfortable, threatened, takes work on their part. Don't dim your light. Joe and Sara talk about wanting each to be the best they can be and achieving what they are passionate about. They say that communication is key, always. As Sara pursues her big dreams, including a re-brand of her website, and booked to speak to thousands of people as a Keynote speaker, she has kept Joe as part of the process. He says he so appreciates the constant communication and it keeps him supportive rather than wanting her to be less.. Sara's advice for you to stay as you need to be: Make a list of the most amazing parts of who you are. As Sara says “I like my loud laugh”, even though it may be too much for someone. Challenge critical thoughts and feedback of others. Don't accept their thoughts as the only word. They are coming from their own issues. Set boundaries. Do not accept everyone's feedback. Your boundaries may not make everyone happy. Someone may get upset if you suddenly stop doing everything for them. That's not on you. That's potential growth for both of you. Sara and Joe have a definite message: You are perfect as you are.

    In this episode, Sara talks about being in the Fog vs. Being Stuck. Being Stuck means you cannot even move (yet), but in the Fog means you are not stuck, you are moving, you just may not be sure which direction to go in. Here, she speaks of being in the Fog-finding your direction or your north star. Sara also compares it to her experience, literally being lost in the fog out in the ocean on her paddleboard, and the metaphor of how she found her way back to shore. Many of us would lose it, not being able to see what's in front of us, or know how to get back “home”. Sara kept her cool, and you will hear what tools (and dolphins) she called upon. Though afraid, she did not let fear immobilize her. She responded, but did not react. She also listened to her intuition. And she asked the universe for help. This event imprinted exactly the tools for when you are feeling lost in the fog in life. Stay level, do not react, be confident, ask for help, listen to your intuition. You will find your way “home” to yourself and to the place you are supposed to be. Here are Sara's tips for navigating the fog: 1.Pay attention to your surroundings. You are the captain of your own life. If this chapter is not working, start a new one. Look at the people around you and do not hesitate to ask for help. 2.Know your values. Don't listen to outside noise, listen to yourself. Ask “who am I?” “How do I choose to live?” And these inner knowings will help guide you.

    Trusting the Process with Sara

    We often wonder why something's not happening fast enough - it can feel painstakingly slow if it's something we desperately want to happen, or if we are stuck in a situation we don't want to be in. Either way, we want something to happen so badly, the waiting feels like an unending sentence of torture. Sara shares her realization from where she is now, that every single unfolding is for our highest good. She says that where she is today, if she'd known it would finally turn out well, she could have saved herself from a lot of anxiety back then. If you are longing for a baby, want out of a relationship, need to move, wanting a new job, know it will happen in the perfect timing. Trust the Universe and also it's important to trust and believe in “Your Team.” You need to be lifted up and get what you need during the waiting and beyond. You definitely don't need people around you that are creating more chaos. Sara also sees that holding on so tight to what she was so impatient to happen, really was stopping it from happening. Be the person you want to be, allow the process to unfurl at the Universe's best timing and always make sure you are the first most important person to be on your own team. Always remember: The Universe has my back as well as the back of my Team. I trust the Universe.

    In this episode Sara talks about our friendships - how they morph and change, how some friends are for a certain time frame, and how as you change (or they change) sometimes the friendship isn't working. Sara asks Are You Happy? Take a look at the people around you. She also shares with us Joe's quote: “Be the partner that you want.” Also, as Sara says, be the best friend to yourself first. Sometimes you have that friend that you've loved but suddenly you are more aware of how much chaos surrounds them and your friendship. Maybe you have gotten to a place where that isn't making you happy- maybe even making you anxious. It's hard to break off a friendship that's meant a lot to you over time-but as Sara says- sometimes you have to think of yourself first. When you become aware of toxicity and negativity - It's time to move on. She acknowledges that her friend group has gotten smaller, but she's gotten happier. Here are some of her non-negotiables in staying or being friends with someone: Do not accept gossip. If your friend is gossiping to you about others, you can be sure they are gossiping about you, too. Will not be friends with someone that is friends with your enemies. It's fine, if they want to be friends with that person, but you don't have to stay friends with them. It probably says something about them. Sara says she will always be kind to people, but not good friends. Watch how your friends treat others. And how they let others treat them. They need to be kind and respectful to others. These are basic qualities that your best friends need to have. Navigating friendships comes with ups and downs for sure, but when the relationship is no longer working for you, do not feel guilty when you need to break it off. You will be happier.

    Moving is on the list of highest stressors – and not just for the logistical nightmare that can ensue. Often there are a lot of emotions surrounding a change: marriage, divorce, new job, having to be near a place or people. And sometimes, we just stop and ask ourselves if we are truly happy where we live right now, even if making a move can be life changing. Sara is on the cusp of moving. She still hasn't figured out exactly where, but she had a realization that she's moved a lot- five times just in California. Most importantly, she realized she's never moved to a place she has chosen; it's always been for someone else's job or where they wanted to move. This time, she is definitely going to choose consciously where she wants to be. With that comes deciding where to, then how to up and move from a place you have gotten used to and comfortable in. As Sara's mom used to tell her, it's really what you bring to the home, and you, Sara, always make the place you are home. All true, and Sara's acclimated and gotten to love California and living by the beach, though she never wanted to move here. But now, she thinks she may be ready for mountains. She grew up in Wisconsin and lived 20 years in California. It may be time to be in the mountains she loves so much. So with this potentially in front of her, she started to think about all the things that make us depressed, anxious, etc with moving. She wants to flip that to excitement and looking to a new adventure. Here she shares some tips of things she's figured out. If it's your choice to move, first you can make a list of what brings you joy, what keeps you grounded and see what/where comes up. For everyone moving, by choice or necessity, here are some points to keep in mind: Embrace the adventure of the move. You are about to make your circle wider and see and learn new things. Get into a routine similar to what you had in your last place. If you ran every morning, do that as soon as you can in your new area. Get to know your area. If you have kids, enroll them in things you can do together and both of you can meet new friends. Stay connected with family and friends from where you left. At the same time, meet new people in your new area. Acknowledge your emotions along the way. Feel what you feel. All feelings will shift and change at varying times. And remember: Moving doesn't have to suck. It can also be fun and exciting during and/or once you get to your new destination.

    Sara and Joe talk about Happiness, each of their separate journey's and now their time together. They talk about mid-life for men and Joe recounts steps he's taken to achieve the life he knew he wanted for the second part of his life. For Sara and Joe, they were both immersed in a lot of deep reflective work before they reconnected. They each had looked at what wasn't working for them, what they definitely wanted and didn't want for the future, faced issues head on, delved into writings and teachings of those that helped to name it, change it and ultimately manifest it. The hard work has paid off for each of them. They found each other again after 30 years. They communicate now on a different level than they had with previous significant others, and are clear on what their priorities are. They can now approach life with more mature and wise emotional tools- and love. Sara shares 6 reasons for why doing the hard work is more than worthwhile: 1 We will all go through transitions and change. Doing the work helps these changes to flow more easily. 2 It helps you address unresolved issues from family, business, generational. By working on these, we release sabotaging ourselves and holding ourselves back from the most beautiful life. 3 Reclaim your own authenticity. Define what you really like, want, who you truly are. You can find and define real happiness and joy and go for that. 4 Physical, mental, emotional, spiritual health. We inherently want to grow. Not doing the work stagnates us. 5 It helps our own relationship with our internal self and can improve our relationships with others around us in work, family, relationships, 6 It helps you redefine success and purpose and what they truly mean to you now. Sara and Joe both individually were on a path of doing the work, both wanting to put in the time to assure their brightest future happiness. When they met up again after a long time, they were equally ready for their new lives – and are creating the life they worked on having.

    Sara just completed her re-upping of her Wilderness First Responder Certification last week. She has always felt it a gift to be able to have this certification and to help someone in distress. And as she began to think about the times she or others have actively participated in helping someone, she also began to think of those she's witnessed that stand on the sideline and don't step up. Are they too afraid to step up? Afraid to be the lead? There was a tv show years ago called “What Would You Do?”. Sara asks would you lead with kindness and jump in or would you walk away? She questions the premise that it's best to “Mind your own Business” vs “Reach out and Help”. She asks us to question at what point is it NOT ok to mind our own business? In this episode Sara asks us to give this thought. Think also about if you were in need of help, what would you want someone else to do? Sara remembers in 1984 when a tornado wiped out her town. The biggest impact was how the community all pitched in and helped those that were in distress or just needed extra help. That impact on how she wanted to be in this world was greater than the tornado's destruction. Sara reminds us that you can influence a person's life if you help them and they may do the same later for someone else. Let's remember to always help others and even when afraid, jump in anyway and be the person not just watching from the side. It's just the way we need to be: Helping and caring. We are all connected.

    Sara and her boyfriend, Joe, went with another friend on a 12-day trek in the High Sierra. While there, friends kept asking “how's it going?” “Will your relationship survive this?” Sara realized we have a tendency to bolt when things get tough, especially when our history has had trust- breaking trauma. We are scared to be in that situation again. We often decide we rather be single and independent forever. This journey actually made Sara realize that if you allow yourself to trust, to be dependent in the good ways, the results are the most beautiful. So Sara, now back, thought a lot about what she and Joe went through. Tough hiking, fearful moments, deep emotional reactions, tackling the elements, being with just the 3 of them for 12 days in the wilderness with no other distractions but the beauty around them, and forging their way forward. Sara realized that actually going through hard times and challenges actually deepens the relationship, and isn't something to run from, but rather let yourself go through it and come out stronger on the other side, which they definitely did. She shares her reasons why it's good to go through challenges together and what it can do for a relationship. Listen to each item in depth in this podcast: 1 Shared experiences 2.Trust and Dependence 3.Improves communication 4.Heightens Empathy and compassion 5.Mutual Support and Growth 6. Strengthens the commitment 7.Allows for more gratitude and appreciation The most beautiful outcome for two people who were afraid to allow themselves to be vulnerable again, is that they know they are not doing this alone anymore. They have each others' backs, will support each other through highs and lows, and can communicate how they are truly feeling about fears, but also gratitude and appreciation.

And how do we get from point A to B? Sara just got back from the High Sierra and charting their own trails. At one point, she looked from a ledge and saw their next pass that looked like a meteorite just dropped to earth. This meant climbing over a lot of small rocks and she was hit with fear. As they charted out how and began the journey, she realized she was doing it. She was getting from point A to Point B and once she arrived at the destination, she looked back at the point where she was so scared, where the problem seemed so enormous, and realized that the closer you get to the problem, and chart a course, it is easier to move towards your goal. Get close enough to see clearly.

    So many of us feel guilty when we take time for ourselves. We think we are taking time away from our children or loved ones and wind up feeling guilty. Often, we go away and spend the time feeling guilty instead of using the time to fill ourselves up. Sara's solo episode talks about how important it is to in fact take that time—with no guilt. She put that into practice and sticks to it by taking some time away from home on her own at the end of August. She uses it to recharge and come back invigorated, excited and appreciative. She shares her 3 tips for reasons it's important to take time for ourselves w/o the guilt. Recharge. Children and loved ones can take a lot of energy from us, no matter how much we love them. Models healthy behavior and boundaries for our kids. They see us taking time and doing what brings us replenishment and joy. Strengthens relationships. It allows others around our children to fill in and create other bonds with them. And for us and our kids or loved ones, a renewed appreciation for us and us for them. So, go ahead and prioritize yourself for needed time, whether it's a day or a week. Do it without guilt, do something you love or something you know you need and reap all the rewards for you and also those you come back to.

Sara's solo episode talks about the experience with her son's team, and how the team members did on rugged land vs. the familiar swimming pool. It's a wonderful journey into teams, individuals, support, going the distance, and the help of a remarkable leader who knows when the very tired team needed some soup with much needed salt, which they termed “magic soup”. ( it was Liptons basic soup!) Then with new wind in their sails they carried on with some renewed energy. But Sara saw quite a few of them lose trust that they could finish, feel like they couldn't make it any further, but she witnessed amazing support for one another. They used their water polo team encouragement and helped each get to the finish line.

Being ill-prepared for these events, he searched to find a resource that would help him, to no avail. So, instead, he developed the S.M.I.L.E. method for healing and wrote the first book in a series, “Smile From The Inside!” a book on healing and overcoming trauma in this crazy modern world. Seth then wrote the second book in that series, “From Grief to GRACE,” and developed the G.R.A.C.E. method for healing your past traumas/challenges once and for all. He thought if these concepts could work for him, then they might just work for someone else. He and Sara go over the S.M.I.L.E approach and also his G.R.A.C.E steps. These help people struggling from grief, whether from divorce, loss of a loved one, loss of a job, whatever it may be. They talk about re-framing your mind, re-engaging in the present, finding happiness again, AND creating a better legacy, future, and fulfilling life. Get your notebooks ready!

    This episode is about Kindness: the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate. Sara tells us the story of being on a recent flight, having to make a connecting flight. She was sitting in the back of the plane. She was running very close to take-off of the next flight and asked if she could move ahead in the line waiting to deplane. Well, one woman said an emphatic “no” and basically said “you missing your next flight isn't our problem.” Suffice to say, Sara wanted to say some things to her, but knew it wasn't a right time. Fortunately, the woman in front of her said “just go.” And Sara did. But the very act of unkindness, leaves a mood shift on all that hear it, and that it's directed to. Thus, a ripple effect begins. As Sara's mother used to say to her when she woke up in a bad mood, “go back to bed and get out on the right side”. So, this podcast is about the importance and actual ease of just being kind. And remember it starts with being kind to yourself. Know that what you put out in this world, comes back to you many-fold and can make the world a nicer place to be. Also, talking about being kind to yourself, if you are interested in the retreat with Sara and Florence Williams near Telluride in July, please reach out to Sara at Sara@saraschultingkranz.com or dm her.

    Spring Cleaning Your Life

    So, it started with clothes. Sara wasn't feeling the things in her closet were “her” and wanted to throw out what wasn't working for her anymore. This inspired a “spring cleaning” state of mind. But as she thought about getting rid of the old clothes and making conscious decisions about what stays, goes, and how each thing is replaced- or not, it started a present life review of more than just the clothes. This started a reflection and appraisal of business, friends, home, clothes and whatever else is ready for assessment. Sara and her boys had moved from a large house after the divorce to a small bungalow by the beach. She asked them to really think about what they wanted to bring with them, what really made them feel good, and what was not needed. They did this (without complaints) and they have been in the bungalow for 7 years when it was going to be just 2. Sara believes in the 80/20 rule. Probably only 20% of what you have, you really, truly need/want. So, this was one of those times that she did her “review” on all things, and she advocates doing this every so often. Look at the friends that you really feel good being with, and those that you actually feel tired from. Look at your home and really look if you can declutter and feel more space and room for good things to come in. The process is an important exploration into yourself right now and evaluating what is really important for you. Oftentimes you will find you don't even miss the things you leave behind. Happy Spring Cleaning!!

    Everyone loves personality tests. Author and creator of the Youtopia Project, Eric Gee, puts a new, more accurate spin on personality typing using his 20 plus years of experience. Want to know if you are a Bear, a Panda, a Peacock, an Owl and which animals you're most compatible with? The Power of Personality, Eric's new book, outlines 16 easy-to-remember animal archetypes.  Eric says the first question that people ask him is "Who should I hook up with?" Yup. That's the first question people ask him when they learn about his super personal approach to personality and better relationships. Find out what you are! Take the test here:   https://youtopiaproject.com/youtopia-16-assessment-2/ The Power of Personality demystifies the sixteen different personality types by teaching the reader how to identify and appreciate their own unique type and that of others. By re-examining previously held assumptions on personality (extroversion vs. introversion, type-A personalities) the reader will be able to understand a person deeper than that person understands themselves.  Sara and Eric talk all about the animal types and the 4 Packs that all the animal types come under. The Packs include Hunter, Gatherer, Shamans and Smiths. Every animal from Peacocks to Butterflies fall under one of these. So you may be a different animal than someone but are within the same Pack. Sara took the test and knows she's a Peacock. Eric and she talk about these traits and others. You can use it to understand others in personal and work life. And even to look at some pop culture icons: Eric tells Sara what he thinks Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are and what their compatibility level may be. So: listen to the podcast - but one hint: Travis and Tay are both probably under the same Pack- so that bodes well. It's all fun, but as Sara saw, she really fit the Peacock and a few others took the test and there is a lot of truth in that animal kingdom comparisons. Have fun, take the test, give to others and get to know your “Tribe” even better.

Laver had a premonition that the plane would crash and broke his tennis rackets to try to get out of going to his tennis competition. But his dad said they were going anyway. Laver is the Founder and CEO of Lucky Energy Drink and founder of Kate's Farm ( the #1 recommended plant-based tube feeding formula) He eventually found the love of his life, Michelle, but during the premature birth of their first child, Kate, she was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and would need a feeding tube for nourishment. Laver founded Kate Farms to save her life. It is used in hospitals across America to save children from not thriving on previous formulas. In thinking about his next chapter, Laver landed on creating a cleaner alternative to the energy drinks on the market. The original name Lucky F*ck comes from a bracelet his son gave him, saying that through everything, his father was really a Lucky F*ck. He launched the company to inspire people to persevere and keep going as he learned to do.  Sara and Richard talk about everything from following our Intuition, to being an entrepreneur, creating from necessity and passion, and most importantly: Never giving up on yourself.

    INTUITION: TOOLS to GET IT & USE IT with Sara

    Play Episode Listen Later May 1, 2024 36:29


    Thanks for all that chimed in and wanted to know more about Intuition from my episode last week with Dr. Sylvia. Our next week's episode has an element of Intuition in it, too. (with Richard Laver). So this solo episode elaborates on Intuition, how you amplify it and listen to it? Sometimes it screams at you to listen, but sometimes we silence it. It is such a useful tool. My question: Would you, if your young son or daughter came to you with an intuitive feeling or dream, would u listen to them and take it seriously? More on that in next week's episode. In this episode, Sara talks more about the gut, heart, brain connection. And how connected Intuition and that “gut feeling” is. The heart, brain and gut work in synchronicity. When all are aligned, you will get the “click-in” that makes you “know”. Do you ever get mad at yourself for not listening? Sara talks about a dream she had that actually predicted the future – it included a move to the San Francisco area, and her marriage blowing up. Which all wound up true. She also recently listened to her gut/intuition while on the mountain and it told her to proceed and ultimately avoided potential avalanches. We need to listen to the messages and be in tune to get that messaging. It is so important to listen to the internal rather than the external. Listen to you - not others. Sara reminds us that Complacency will kill. Do not be complacent with your intuition. Allow yourself to be courageous (Live Boldly!) and allow your gut to speak to you. Here are some ways to help listen and be in the quiet to allow messages to come in: Be still. Quiet your mind.  This doesn't mean you have to sit cross-legged on the floor. You can sit or you can move. You can be on the ocean, a nature walk, etc. Take a Chance on following your gut instinct- take a risk. The more you do this, it will heighten. Do Daily body scans. Sometimes fear and excitement live in the body and feel the same way. Your Intuition can say is it just my fear speaking? When it really feels like the messages are coming from within your body, then you know it's intuition.  Spend time outside. It helps quiet us, and also makes us open to listening within. Do a Technology Fast.  Again, the goal is to Quiet the mind so you can listen. Take away the constant stimulation on your phone and other devices. Ask your intuition a question. Don't just ask the brain, because fear can come in.  Journal writing . Or audio. You can talk into voice memos (such as Day One) The Arts – Art, music, dance, etc. Use your art as a means to foster the story you want to tell. Tap into intuition and bring forth that story. The more we tap into our Intuition, the stronger it will become. So, tap into it and create the life you love! Please share this with your friends and watch Sara on YouTube. You may want to look into last week's episode with Dr. Sylvia and next week's episode with Richard Laver. Have a great week!

    Are you In Limbo? Impatient and fighting it? Listen to Sara and Dr. Sylvia.

    Many of us are in Limbo. This can affect our peace as the monkey chatter in our brain goes on a loop of “why can't this happen faster, am I good enough? Why am I in this state?” Living in Limbo is so tough. We want to hold on to the past. We are unclear about the future. Ugh! Until we look at it differently -- Maybe we need to let go of one thing (a job, a relationship, a move to new location, an activity) and we are holding on so tight because it is a known entity. Sara and Dr. Sylvia show us that we can turn that thinking around and instead know that letting go and being in limbo is not failure. Letting go is actually growth and opens us up to our next chapter. This can ultimately be so exciting.  Our human ego can mess with us. Our ego says this state of Limbo, before we settle into a new stage, is failure. We tell ourselves something didn't work out. Or maybe we made a change and we are stuck between the old and the new.  Dr. Sylvia shares that in her uncomfortable Limbo state, she started to Journal. This helped her really explore her dilemma, and opened her up to getting messages from a higher power. Sara “journals” also, but instead of writing, she speaks into a recorder on her phone. It's a great tool to get in touch with your inner wisdom and listen to your intuition that may help you find answers and some peace.   Dr. Sylvia shared that she was in limbo between living in Miami, her home for years, and her new “home” of Geneva. She felt a consuming urge to get back to her “old” life and thus resisting her “new” life. Upon journaling, she received a message that said “you are creating chaos in your head. (Truth!) Stay where you are, take advantage of your new circumstances, and much will come from it. This actually had her feel an inner calm finally. No more fighting in her head. She finally felt an acceptance and resolve to see all the wonders of where she is, and allow the new and unexpected to come forward. Both Sara and Sylvia rely on intuition a lot. Hear what they have to say about that and about the brain, gut, heart connection.  Limbo isn't bad. Limbo, sometimes, if we are patient and trust and stay open, can be the beginning of an exciting new chapter that is where we are supposed to be. Stay tuned to the podcast until the end, you will be gifted with a beautiful meditation with Dr. Sylvia. Don't be afraid of being in Limbo. Congratulations on new adventures in life.

She was featured in the 2021 film The Alpinist alongside her late partner, Marc-André Leclerc., who died while climbing from an unexpected avalanche.  She is best known for the first free solo of the 760 meter (2,500-foot) Chiaro di Luna (5.11a) in Patagonia, for her development of new alpine climbing routes, and as the star of Brette, a Reel Rock Film Tourshort film. Harrington's long-time partner, fellow alpinist Marc-André Leclerc, was confirmed dead after going missing during a climbing expedition near Juneau, Alaska in March 2018. Following Leclerc's death, Harrington devoted two years to working on alpine routes. She spent the first year processing Leclerc's death while she "was deep in the mountains". Harrington dedicated her May 2018 Mount Blane route to Leclerc, writing: "We have named it Life Compass for a number of reasons. Primarily because my life has taken such a sudden 180-degree turn since the loss of Marc in March and alpine climbing has been my guide. I dedicate this climb to my climbing mentor, partner, and love Marc-Andre who would probably solo it the following day if he was here." Sara and Brette talk about mountain and rock climbing and it's paradigm for life and it's highs and lows, going forward boldly, doing what you love, learning to live with peace and zen along with the tragedies and sacrifices. Brette continues, even after losing her great love, Marc-Andre to the mountains, and shares her passion that stays alive within her. The Alpinist documentary can be seen on Netflix, Prime Video, Redbox., Vudu or Apple TV on your Roku device.
