When life starts to feel too small for who you've become, it's not a breakdown - it's a breakthrough. This one hit deep, Thrivesters and today we're talking about what it really means to outgrow your old life and to do so with grace. I got a lot of comments on the Life Audit recap episode, which was dedicated to this very idea. You know, those moments when everything in your life is great, fine, hitting it on all cylinders and yet - something still feels… off.This week, I sat down with my childhood friend Carla Greengrass, now a Purposeful Pivot Coach, and we got real about what happens when the life you built doesn't fit anymore. From the playground to the big PR job, reinvention number 1, 2 and what's next. Today you have a front row seat to real, unfiltered talk between two old friends who met on the playground. Today Carla and I unpack what it actually means to evolve - and why this is not a crisis, it's a calling.We talk about:What to do when you've outgrown your own successWhy nothing is “wrong” with you - you're simply changingHow your energy and beliefs create your reality (and how to rewrite them The “factory settings” that keep you stuck - and how to hit the resetWhy reinvention doesn't have to be scary - and how you can reframe to step into your next chapter with clarity and grace. And, yes, I share a personal story about my own life audit, and how I realized my compass had shifted from “grow the business” to protect my peace.Carla breaks down her Energy Leadership Index Assessment, explaining how it reveals the beliefs that drive your reactions - and how to use that awareness to finally choose the life you truly want. She even shares her “Pocket-Sized Pivots,” tiny mindset shifts you can make in real time when life throws a curveball.If you've been asking yourself, “Why don't I feel fulfilled anymore?” - this episode will shake something loose.

Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the podcast on StoicismIn this episode of the Via Stoica Podcast, we reflect on a powerful line from Seneca's Letters to Lucilius, Letter 12: On Old Age:“How nice is it to have outworn one's desires and left them behind.”Seneca, Letters to Lucilius, Letter 12Seneca's words remind us that there's peace in growing beyond our old desires. What many see as loss, fewer passions, less drive, a quieter rhythm of life, can instead be freedom. The Stoics teach that as we age, we shed the compulsions that once ruled us and move closer to calm, reason, and virtue. Seneca himself wrote this late in life, finding new joy not in chasing but in observing, not in striving but in understanding.This reflection connects deeply with Epictetus' warning not to let our wants drive us, and with Marcus Aurelius' reminder to “be content with what nature gives.” It points to the Stoic discipline of Desire, learning to want only what's up to us, and to the discipline of Assent, choosing which thoughts and impulses deserve our attention.So what can we take from Seneca's view on aging today?Learn to see detachment not as loss but as liberation.Recognize how changing desires can open space for peace and reflection.Use each stage of life to align more closely with virtue rather than vanity.Seneca invites us to see old age not as a decline but as a refinement, the quiet strength that comes when we finally stop running after what never mattered.For more, check out this related article with quotes on dealing with death:https://viastoica.com/10-seneca-quotes-on-death/And if you're looking for more Stoic sayings, visit viastoica.com, where you'll find hundreds of quotes with full references to the original texts:https://viastoica.com/stoic-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/marcus-aurelius-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/epictetus-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/seneca-quotesMake sure to subscribe to more Stoic Quotes episodes every Friday, as well as our Tuesday interviews and longer discussions.Support the showhttps://viastoica.comhttps://viastoica.com/stoic-life-coachinghttps://viastoica.com/benny-vonckenhttps://x.com/ViaStoicainfo@viastoica.comProduced by: badmic.com

Diwali is the perfect moment to upgrade your relationship with desire. In this episode, we contrast the material formula—“if the world gives me what I want, I'll be happy”—with the yogic move to become the observer of desire, calm it with clear knowledge, and outgrow it through devotion. As love deepens, the craving mind quiets and new, service-shaped desires appear. Expect festival-of-lights reflections, Bhakti insights on detachment and fulfillment, a Bob-Dylan-approved reminder that we all serve something, and a few laughs about Raghu's gym heroics and MRI adventures—because even on the path of devotion, humor helps the medicine go down.

And how do you know when it's time to stop hustling like a freelancer and start leading like a CEO? Today's featured guest found herself in that situation and made the bold choice to go from career misstep to becoming an agency owner. She'll dive into what it really takes to go from a one-woman shop with dial-up internet to leading a team with vision, systems, and staying power. From handwritten letters with a 15% close rate to breaking free from client dependency and leveraging AI without losing the human touch, she shares the hard-earned lessons every agency owner needs to hear. Kriston Sellier is the President and Founder of Id8, a specialized branding agency based in Atlanta. With more than 25 years in the business, she's built a reputation for helping food, beverage, and manufacturing brands stand out and thrive. Kriston is passionate about research-driven branding, cultivating strong communities, and proving that the human side of leadership is just as critical as the strategy. In this episode, we'll discuss:                                    Starting over after being fired. Outgrowing freelance mode. What do agency owners need to grow?

Ready to design faster and smarter? Go to wix.com/studio to get started. Thriving in the Agency World After Being Fired Kriston didn't step into agency ownership with a clean, corporate plan. She was fired. After leaving IBM to co-found an agency, she found herself pushed out after a handshake deal gone wrong. At 20-something, she was suddenly unemployed and staring down two options: get another job or finally chase her dream of starting her own shop. It wasn't easy, but that leap turned out to be the right one. Starting out with no clients, she set a modest goal of making $35,000 in her first year. Instead, she closed out her first nine months with $90,000. That was the moment she knew she wasn't just freelancing; she was building something real. From Cold Calls to Handwritten Letters: Building the First Client Base Kriston started with just a basement office and dial-up internet. Since this was the 90s, if her husband picked up the phone line upstairs it would disconnect the whole system. She started out making cold calls to every food and beverage brand in the Yellow Pages. Additionally, she also sent handwritten letters pitching her services, yielding an impressive 15% close rate. In today's digital-first world, that kind of return sounds impossible, but back then it got her first wave of clients. It's a reminder that persistence and a personal touch can cut through the noise, even if the tools have changed. Outgrowing Freelance Mode and Thinking Like a CEO Like many agency owners, Kriston spent the early years acting more like a freelancer than a CEO. That all changed in 2006 when one client made up 75% of her business. The sleepless nights and anxiety from being handcuffed to a single account forced her to rethink everything. A colleague recommended working with a business consultant, so Kriston hired one and for four years, she worked with a full-time consultant who helped her transition from operator to CEO. That shift meant putting systems in place, committing to sales, and most importantly, diversifying her client base. Within the first year of working with her consultant, she added 25 new clients and broke free from the one-client trap. What Agency CEOs Need to Grow? Kriston strongly believes that CEOs should surround themselves with subject matter experts. Every agency owner needs a good advisory board that tells them the truths they doesn't necessarily want to hear, which is why she recommends relying on financial, HR, and sales consultants that can help you look at things from a different perspective. Regarding her role as CEO, Kriston definitely sees herself as more of a coach than a manager. For her, leadership is about helping team members uncover the real issues behind their challenges and guiding them to their own solutions. Likewise, the best team members are those who show they're coachable and open to feedback. She doesn't see failure as the end of the road but as a symptom of something deeper. Her job is to help her team ask the right questions, recognize the root cause, and take ownership of the fix. That shift from micromanaging tasks to coaching outcomes not only freed her up as a leader but also empowered her team to make better decisions without her constant oversight. AI, Research, and the Future of Agencies Running a research-based agency, Kriston is a big fan of Perplexity, a research-focused AI she uses 20–40 times a day for everything from writing stronger emails to analyzing massive datasets. But she's quick to point out that AI isn't a replacement for agencies—it's an enhancer. Where some fear AI will eliminate agency work, Kriston agrees that companies will still want experts to navigate the complexity and not DIY everything themselves. Clients may use AI for certain tasks, but they'll still rely on agencies for strategy, creativity, and execution.. AI + human expertise is the winning formula. And with large organizations outsourcing more marketing again, Kriston believes the future is bright for agencies that bring innovation, research, and personal connection to the table. Cooperation Over Competition Kriston wants agency owners to stop treating each other like competitors and start seeing each other as collaborators. She believes the industry's future depends on agency owners being open, honest, and willing to share both wins and lessons learned. Most agency owners see every other shop as a threat when they're starting out, fearful of competition instead of open to collaboration. At some point, however, through masterminds and peer groups, they come to realize the real growth comes when owners start to build community and create strategic partnerships. For Kriston, it all comes back to community, the same mission she set when she started ID8 decades ago. Build the community, and the business will follow.

IntroWhat if the beliefs that feel most true about who you are—the "I'm not…" statements you've carried for years—are just choices you made in the past? In this raw Real Wednesday episode, Heather V Masters shares the story of how she transformed a 20-year identity as "not a runner" in just three weeks, from finishing a traumatic 2000 half-marathon alone and wrapped in foil to discovering joy in a 2011 charity 10k. Through visceral storytelling and uncomfortable vulnerability, she reveals how beliefs are choices we can always remake—and why she's still catching those old permission-seeking voices this very morning.What's Inside:The desolate 2000 half-marathon finish: alone, injured, wrapped in foil like a baked potato, vowing never to run againThe 2011 invitation that changed everything: a small charity supporting child-trafficking survivorsThe terrifying Richmond Park moment: realizing she could come last in a tiny race where everyone would noticeHow parental doubt ("Aren't you too old?") planted seeds of limiting beliefsThe visualization that created certainty: seeing herself cross the finish line with people behind herThree weeks of training with a dog who eventually ran home in protestThe friend's voice cutting through the noise at the finish line: healing the 2000 woundRace day revelation: coming third-last was absolutely perfectThis morning's business planning moment: catching dad's voice and choosing againThe NLP anchoring technique: using memorable moments to model future transformationThree Lessons:1. A Belief Is Just a Choice You Made—And You Can Choose AgainReality: That "truth" about yourself might just be a decision you made in a moment of pain twenty years ago. When you recognize it as a choice, not a fact, you reclaim your power to choose differently.2. Big Identity Shifts Don't Require Years—They Require a Moment of CertaintyReality: Transformation doesn't need months of therapy. It needs a single moment of 110% commitment where you decide with absolute certainty who you're becoming. Then the actions follow naturally.3. Old Stories Have Smaller Beliefs Hanging Off Them—Let Them Go TogetherReality: "I'm not a runner" came with "I'm too old," "I'm not a completer," and "I'll embarrass myself." Outgrowing the main story means consciously releasing all the supporting stories too. They don't get to come along for the ride.The Uncomfortable TruthThe stories we tell ourselves about who we are—I'm not creative, I'm terrible with money, I'm just not that kind of person—aren't truths carved in stone. They're choices we made, often years ago, often in moments of pain or failure. And we can choose again. Right now. Today.This Week's Story Rewrite ExerciseRIGHT NOW: Pause and write down three "I can't" statements. The ones you don't say out loud. The ones that feel embarrassing to admit. Those are the ones holding the most power.THEN GO DEEPER: Pick the one holding you back most and ask:When did I first choose to believe this?What was happening when I made this choice?Does it still serve me today?If I could choose again, what would I choose instead?Then visualize yourself living from that new belief with certainty—and take one small action this week that proves the new story is true.Memorable Moments That Will Stick:"Wrapped in foil like a baked potato, utterly desolate""I could come last. Everyone will know.""A blood oath with myself: I would never run again""Even my dog ran home by herself—just had enough""I could hear her voice cutting through all the other noise—'Come on, Heather!'""For the first time in a race, I wasn't alone at the finish...

One of the most difficult parts of personal growth isn't the weight you lose or the habits you build. It's realizing that not every relationship grows with you. In this episode of Healthi Life, Community Leader Ashley explores the emotional reality of outgrowing relationships when your personal growth shifts.As Ashley shares, “The relationships that are right for you will never require you to shrink—so stop apologizing for your growth and start owning it.”This conversation dives into how to navigate the grief, guilt, and loneliness that can come with change, while also embracing the freedom and authenticity that come from honoring your evolution. Because outgrowing someone doesn't mean you've failed them, it means you're finally honoring yourself.

Happy Friday, Regulars! This week's RGF hits deep. Kev's been doing the work in therapy, and he's cracking open some big realizations… like why setting boundaries feels so uncomfortable, why we keep absorbing everyone else's emotions, and why people act weird when we start changing. When you've spent your life being the fixer or the feeler, it's hard to suddenly stop carrying the weight. But healing means learning to show up for yourself, too. Kev opens up about how he's finally learning to hold space for others without abandoning himself, and how he's navigating the emotional pushback that can come when we grow. It's a reminder that saying “no” doesn't make you selfish and growth isn't always glamorous, but peace? Peace is worth it. Tune in, laugh with us, and remember… you're not alone in this healing thing.

In today's episode, I sit down with my best friend and business partner, Brian Mark, to talk about friends and success. The hard truth? If your circle is holding you back, you've got to cut ties. Not everyone is built to grow with you. Some people will stay stuck no matter how hard you try to drag them forward. If you want to achieve real success, you've got to outgrow people, and that means having the tough conversations most won't.   MY CLOTHING, CHECK OUT: https://amarokaesthetics.com/ CHECK ME OUT ON OTHER SOCIALS: IG = https://www.instagram.com/coleluisdasilva/ TIKTOK = https://www.tiktok.com/@coleluisdasilva/   WAKE UP WITH THE WOLF PODCAST: APPLE = https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wake-up-with-the-wolf/id1533545890 SPOTIFY = https://open.spotify.com/show/6cOLgWolq6mkOnvNesuTDc?si=8b3c4f153a264e9a

If you've been thinking, “I'm not that bad… but I'm also not okay,” this one's for you. Today I'm talking with my dear friend Suzanne Warye—creator of The Sober Mom Life and author of The Sober Shift: A Modern-Day Guide to Living an Abundant Sober Life—about why sobriety can be less about “rock bottom” and more about reclamation. I asked Suzanne Warye, author of The Sober Shift, to share how to stop obsessing about “forever,” live in the present, and use simple shifts—like counting sober firsts—to build momentum without shame or perfection. She breaks down the mindset tools that actually helped her, why she says “sober for good” (for the good of your mind, relationships, presence), and how to keep going when your brain is screaming for the easy button.

If you've ever felt uncomfortable going back to your hometown, maybe even like you're in a weirdly small invisible box, you're not alone. Feeling like you've outgrown a relationship or a place or even a role in your life feels like...loss. At the very least, it's deeply uncomfortable. We get into what or whom we've outgrown and how we've dealt with it!Follow us on instagram @imuncomfortable.podcast

Adult friendships can be lifelines—or emotional sinkholes. But when a friendship starts feeling more draining than supportive, do you walk away, set boundaries, or push for deeper connection?In this episode of Wit and Reason's Therapy Or Trash series, Dr. Alexis Moreno and Alex Honigman react to viral videos on friendship, vulnerability, neurodivergence, and emotional intelligence. They dig into whether ghosting, redefining boundaries, or fighting for closeness is healthy and therapeutic… or toxic and trash.From ADHD distraction guilt to the grief of outgrowing one-sided relationships, they unpack the neuroscience, psychology, and emotional cost of changing how—and who—you connect with as an adult. Along the way, they validate the “strong friend,” challenge outdated social rules, and push for intentional friendships built on equity, reciprocity, and care.If you've ever wrestled with whether to hold on or let go, this conversation will help you see friendship through a sharper, more compassionate lens.

After years of being dismissed by doctors, Alison discovered the power of nutrition, root-cause healing, and nervous system support.

In this week's podcast I was honoured to join a four-way conversation between Giovanna and Vanessa de Oliveira Andreotti and Tim Logan of Future Learning Design Podcast, to celebrate the publication of Vanessa's new book, Outgrowing Modernity. Vanessa de Oliveira Andreotti is author of Hospicing Modernity: Facing Humanity's Wrongs and the Implications for Social Activism which we have referenced many times on Accidental Gods.  She is also Dean of the Faculty of Education at the University of Victoria in Canada. She is a former Canada Research Chair in Race, Inequalities and Global Change and a former David Lam Chair in Multicultural Education. She is one of the co-founders of the Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures (GTDF) Arts/Research Collective, is the author of many academic papers and, with Aiden CinnamonTea, is co-author of Burnout From Humans. Most of her published articles and OpEds are available at academia.edu.Her daughter, Giovanna de Oliveira Andreotti, is a Dancer/dance teacher, GTDF member, certified Warm Data Lab host, founder of Rewiring for Reality: Cross Generational Reckoning, and an online course facilitator/co-ordinator. She holds a Bachelor's in Psychology from UBC, postgraduate certifications in Climate Psychology and Embodied Social Justice, and currently coordinates an inquiry that maps pedagogical practices addressing complexity, complicity, collapse, and accountability.This conversation took us deep into the complexity of what it means to be human at this moment when the old order is quite clearly in breakdown.  How do we use language? How do we engage with ourselves, each other and the web of life? And what is the web in a world where the first human-created silicon life is co-evolving with us.   How do we explore inter and intra-generational responses and capacity for meaning-making in a way that honours everyone, both human and beyond-human? In a world that feels ever more precarious, it was an honour and a delight to be in the company of such bright, deep minds.  Thank you to Giovanna, Vanessa and Tim - and I hope you all enjoy this as much as we did.

She shares her personal experiences of grief and the signs that indicate a friendship is no longer serving you.

What if everything we believe about wisdom and maturity is backwards? Most of us carry this quiet assumption that growing up means becoming someone else... someone more serious, more predictable, more aligned with what society expects. What if wisdom isn't about following prescribed paths. It's about developing an intimate relationship with your own evolution. True maturity emerges when we stop trying to prove ourselves and start honoring our authentic desires. This episode challenges the tyranny of "should" and invites us into a more generous understanding of human development. The most mature thing you can do? Stop rushing toward someone else's definition of who you ought to become. What you'll discover: Wisdom is seasonal—what serves you now might not serve you later, and that's growth Judgment is immaturity—truly wise people don't prescribe paths for others Your timeline is sacred—comparison is the enemy of authentic development Time to rewrite the rules of growing up on your own terms. ---- NEW SHOW - How to Change the World: The History of Innovation Learn about the history of invention and the evolving story of the human species told in chronological order.

#205. In this Ask P episode, we're talking through the messy, beautiful in-betweens of life and love. I'm answering listener questions about hooking up with an ex you're not over, wanting a dog when you're not settled down, and moving cities for your partner's career when you're still building your own.

Send us a textWhat do you do when your child comes out to you?How do you support a transgender or nonbinary child — especially when it feels unfamiliar, overwhelming, or even scary?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lulu, also known as The Momatrician — a pediatrician, parent coach, gender and sexuality educator, and the proud mom of a transgender child. But her journey didn't begin with full understanding and acceptance.Dr. Lulu opens up about:Her honest, emotional response when her child came outGrowing up queer in a conservative Nigerian Catholic householdWhy parental affirmation is life-saving for LGBTQ+ youthThe difference between accepting your child and truly affirming themHow parents can grow, even if they make mistakesWhether you're a parent, educator, or someone seeking to understand the transgender experience better, this conversation will touch your heart and expand your perspective.

Growth is lonely, but settling costs even more. In today's powerful follow-up on the “Five Buckets of Growth”, Kevin and Alan open up about the emotional, relational, and mental shifts that come with leveling up. From letting go of past friendships to outgrowing mentors, they share the tough truths most people don't talk about. You'll learn why staying in the “mentee” mindset matters, how passion shapes your circle, and what it takes to keep climbing when others stop. It's raw, honest, and exactly what you need to reflect on your growth journey.Digital Asset:The 5 Buckets of Growth - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jSxD47p-pz7hFojyYlSuB1ga9tWEK9KV/viewFree 30-minute Business Breakthrough Session with Alan -https://calendly.com/alanlazaros/30-minute-free-breakthrough-session?month=2025-04Free 30-Minute Podcast Breakthrough Session with Kevin -https://calendly.com/kevinpalmieri/free-30-minute-podcast-breakthrough-session-with-kevin_____________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

I'm back with Hannah Brown to talk about enoughness. How the personal development space wants people to always feel behind, like there's more to optimize and improve on instead of helping people be at peace with their quircks and flaws and not view life as a relentless pursuit of constant improvement. We also tie this into consumerism and how it's rooted in the same mindset of 'lack' and 'once I own this thing, then I'll feel happy' and how that cycle keeps us similarly trapped in never feeling like we are enough or have enough.
