Flex This is a collection of conversations of stories and experiences where humans are flexing their muscles of curiosity and emotional intelligence as they work to align into the most authentic version of themselves.
Like all versions of wellness and fitness, this journey takes self awareness, accountability, a deliberate individualized plan, and adaptability.
My hope is you’ll find parts of yourself and your own journey inside of these conversations and it will invite you to start flexing your own muscles of curiosity while connecting to your highest and most authentic self.
Description:
In this episode, Dee and I dive deep into the importance of healing our wounds in order to know our authentic selves and how grief is woven into the fabric of our lives. We discuss how we are always given who or what we need to grow and heal in this human journey.
Key Topics Covered:
1. Authenticity is a verb: True authenticity is never static. It is something we work at single every day.
2. Grief is profound and complex: Grief is a deeply personal process. There is no universally right or wrong way to grieve, fixed timeline for it nor is it predictable in how it will show up.
3. Growth Mindset: Understanding the power of a growth mindset in cultivating resiliency in our lives while embracing challenges in order to unlock our full potential.
4. Overcoming Challenges: Dee and I chat about the power in using the lessons and tools we gain navigating our own grief, healing and authentic journey to become the best version of ourselves and elevate the people around us.
