    The Gift of Self Discovery

    Play Episode Listen Later Jan 25, 2023 26:45


    I often think of self discovery as the gift that keeps on giving in many areas of our lives from our relationships, to our careers and even to the ways we care for ourselves. The more knowledge we have about who we are and what we need, the better equipped we are to thrive.  Within this episode, I explore what self discovery is, practices & processes to help with self discovery & the ways in which it can serve us. I also explore some of the life events that have triggered my quest for learning more about who I am.  I'm excited to share more about this subject over the coming weeks as it relates to different areas of life with some amazing guests.

    During this episode I explore what it looks like to be an active participant in creating the life you desire. Sometimes when we think about the good things that we desire out of life, there is often this message that comes along with it that is focused on patience and that can sometimes be misconstrued into becoming docile. I think we misunderstand what that patience is supposed to look like and what it really means in the healthiest possible form…because resting confidently in the knowing that certain things are for you is different from crossing your arms and waiting. So grab a drink and a notebook as we unpack some of what taking responsibility for the life we want looks like.
