What motivates your dreams is just as important as the dream itself.Maybe even more important.These dreams for your future inform your daily decisions and where you focus your time, energy, and resources, and they impact how you lead yourself and others.They fuel the drive that motivates you to get up each day as you do the important–and sometimes tedious–practices that build the future you want for yourself and the world.They support moving from a vision or idea to action, creating the reality you have always longed for.The tricky thing about your desires for the future is they require understanding your past and any pain it holds.No matter how smart the parts of you are that strategize and plan - if you are not clear on the echoes of your pains, losses, and unmet needs then they can become interwoven with your vision for your future.And if you are not aware of these influences, they can drive you in ways you may not be aware of, setting you up for burnout and dissatisfaction when your dreams are actually achieved.My guest today realized she achieved the dreams she had been striving for and did not feel how she had hoped. This led her on a powerful journey of self-discovery and deconstruction on how she viewed herself, her work, and her relationships.Moorea Seal is a Seattle-based author, speaker and multidisciplinary artist, as well as an avid list maker with over one million books, journals and stationery products in print.

Seattle-based best-selling author, designer, and online curator Moorea Seal discusses how she uses list-making as a powerful tool to manage mental health. She’s shared her habitual practice with others through her 52 Lists Project, in which she encourages everyone to harness their inner wisdom, strength, and self love through making lists. We talk about the inspiration behind her most recent book 52 Lists for Bravery, and how you, too, can be resilient and brave in the midst of life’s uncertainties. "It's about rewriting your story. It's about deciding to take the things from the past that are going to help you in creating a new future, rather than ruminating on the things that hold you back. So I think that is really the power of list making." -Moorea Seal Audio Engineered by: Blaise Douros

There are different types of anxiety journals and workbooks for different needs. There are books that you can use by yourself, and others that are best used working with a behavioral health professional.   And you’d think I wouldn’t have to define what a journal or workbook is but in this case, I do. Because there are the bound type of books that you can find anyplace from the 99 Cents Only store to the most expensive stationary outlet. Bound blank pages with maybe the date and a section for doodling.    Love those things,  but not the topic of the podcast. This is a look at items that are specifically targeted to people that have stress or anxiety issues.    But even that doesn't quite get to it. There is a wide range of publications and apps.   Because there is a difference between anxiety journals and workbooks. You want to find a good match for what you need.   There are journal books that might have a one sentence prompt and you are given a few lines to respond to that sentence.  You might need more.   There are thick workbooks that give solid information about anxiety conditions, what to do if X happens and push a specific treatment choice. You might need less.    You might need your content in plain English or you want the full firehouse of information.   In this episode, a look at anxiety journals and workbooks. Some of the authors do have audiobook versions.   Oh, one more thing. There are a number of books with the same name or similar names. When possible, I've included the author's name, website or publisher to help you get to the item mentioned in the podcast.   If you need support contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255, the Trevor Project at 1-866-488-7386 or text “START” to 741-741.

Real talk? We are human with a plethora of heavy emotions.  A student once told me that his first time in yin was the "longest time I've ever spent with myself.” Sometimes, our mindfulness, meditation, or yoga practices bring up difficult emotions or thoughts that are hard to process.  We must not beat ourselves up when we get frustrated, sad, or angry, but instead find ways to welcome these emotions with kindness.  We must be kind to ourselves to nurture and heal.  Tune in and breathe with me as together we figure it out!

Today, I'm talking with Moorea Seal, who is an author, designer and shop owner based out of Seattle! In today’s interview, she walks us through the early days of her career and how blogging, art, and Pinterest all played a roll. We also chat about what it’s like to name your business after yourself, how early trauma in her life set her on her path, and why our identities don’t need to be tied to our outputs. Moorea’s story is one that is full of both dark and light moments and you’ll hear a little bit of both over the next three episodes. I really hope you’ll take the time to listen to the underlying drivers that are at play in everything she does. While we may not all be able to relate to exactly what she’s gone through, her tenacity to just keep going and to trust her gut is one that I think we can all learn from.

www.alexandraharbushka.com Leave a review: http://bit.ly/ReviewSexMoneyandFood PSST.  I will be reading your reviews in an upcoming episode so if you have any questions ask away :-)   The Sex, Money, and Food Podcast 078: Courage, Conviction and Emotional Intelligence, With Mel Burt-Gracik   For a long time, we’ve known about IQ or intelligence quotient, and it’s always been associated with how smart a person is. But recently emotional intelligence (EQ) is gaining importance in the workforce and in our everyday lives.   On this episode of the Sex, Money and Food podcast, Mel Burt-Gracik joins us to explain what EQ is, why it’s something that can be increased as well as the role it plays in helping us let go of the “heavy deficit” so many of us are carrying around. More About This Show   When Mel Burt-Gracik was in her mid-30s, she was living a beautiful life by all accounts, but internally she felt like she was running on empty. She felt burnt out and realized she didn’t know what she wanted to do with her life when she grew up - not a feeling she expected to have at that point in her life.   With courage and conviction, Mel dove in to find what truly spoke to her soul and to find the type of work that called to her. Through talking and connecting with others, something she loves to do naturally, she met and hired a life coach who changed everything for her.   As a result of that work, today she is the founder of Flourish. Flourish is a company devoted to helping every human do their best, be a part of meaningful work, and have a rich, full life. She is a is four-time Gallup-trained and certified coach who has worked with over 275 individuals on their strengths. She also holds certifications in Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), Emotional Intelligence (EQ-i), and is a board-certified coach. On this episode of the Sex, Money and Food podcast, Mel and I talk about what she means when she says people are carrying around a “heavy deficit” and what we can do to change that for ourselves.   The first way to unload that deficit is to reframe how we work. She says we often feel depleted because of our work culture. We still have the 40-hour work week from the industrial Revolution, but it doesn't fit well with the brain capacity of what we are asking of our knowledge-based economy workers to do today!   But our mindset around work culture today is causing this heavy deficit. Deep down people want to do meaningful work, but many are not. People must be given autonomy and freedom, and constraints must be removed (like the constraints around not taking breaks or naps), then people can share their own brilliant gifts. With freedom, autonomy and no constraints people are able to tap into their own creativity and contribution.   The second thing we can do to let go of that heavy deficit is to do things we are good at every day. Mel states people who are able to do what they do best every day tend to have higher levels of excellence in life.   Doing their best every day means they get to use their natural abilities, their talents, and learned skills that are unique to them. If people are given the freedom to mold their roles to fit their natural talents, they will be happier, they will do better work and feel more fulfilled.   And the third way to relieve the heavy deficit is our own internal positivity ratio. Mel talks about the work of Dr. Rick Hanson, a neuroscientist/psychologist, who shares how and why we need to absorb our positive moments. When we have positive experiences, we need to hold on to them and expand and savor them for 12 seconds. After that, we need to absorb them and feel the feelings in our bodies and soak it up.   This is important because it helps offset our negativity bias. The negativity bias is our animal brains’ programming to pay attention to danger, negative experiences because those things might come up again and kill us.   Even though the world we live in is much safer now than in prehistoric times, the primal parts of our brains still hold on to the negativity bias. So we have to give attention to the positive, our brains don't naturally absorb it.   Also on today’s show, Mel and I talk about how you can grow your emotional intelligence as well as why having a high EQ is correlated with high performers, why it’s responsible for an extra $29k a year for some as well as 58% of people’s job performances.   You’ll want to hear all of that and more on this intriguing and fascinating conversation about emotional intelligence! Mel Answers the Questions   Q: Rank the following in order: sex, money, food. A: Food, sex, money.   Q: There is nothing better in life than… A: helping someone have a better life.   Q: What is your ultimate pleasure in life? A: connecting with friends, with people I love dearly on a real and authentic level.   Q: What does flourish smell like to you? A: A rose that has almost like a lemon scent to it.   Q: What is a circumstance you went through that has allowed you to grow and learn and made you who you are today? A: I have two Master’s degrees and all of my career has been spent in leadership development, most of that in higher ed. I was about five years in to my last full-time job when I realized I was burnt out. I didn’t know what I wanted to be “when I grew up”, I didn’t expect to feel that way in my mid-30s. I had two kids, a husband - a really full, beautiful life but I was running on empty.   Somewhere I heard about coaching and someone I was interviewing with introduced me to their life coach. I hired her for two reasons: I needed support in navigating what was next for me and when I had heard about coaching, I thought it might be something I wanted to do someday so I thought it’d be good for me to have my experience of it. She really changed my life! Q: What book are you reading? A: The Steal Like An Artist Journal by Austin Kleon, and The 52 List Project by Moorea Seal.
