#78 Consistency & Stillness : The Least Fun/Most Beneficial Growth Tools

#78 Consistency & Stillness : The Least Fun/Most Beneficial Growth Tools

When I picked CONSISTENCY as my word for 2023 I didn't imagine I would be so bored of it so fast. What I am coming to see is that doing small but mighty things, consistently is a powerful way to minimize stress while making great strides. It doesn't get me excited but I think learning to push through and do the normal work that doesn't excite us is a very important skill.

S2 E18 January Wellness- Rise up. Be Yourself. You are needed.

S2 E18 January Wellness- Rise up. Be Yourself. You are needed.

I'm coming in hot today with this topic. We have become a society of people who can't handle hard, challenging, "risky" or even growth conversations and it shows. It is so sad when we lose ourselves and become so diluted. We lose. Everyone in relationship with us loses but mostly our kids lose. People are continually looking to us for courage, strength, integrity and some sort of back bone and many are met with passivity. It's time to stand up and step into deeper, more challenging relationships and conversations.
