When you think about the emotions that come up in a challenging or painful situation, is excitement one of them?

Usually not, right?

But what if it was? What if it could be? I say we open ourselves up to the possibility that something can be rebuilt from the ashes of our breakdown. I didn’t always use to think this way though.

Today I’m sharing a situation that inspired me to explore the process of moving beyond the grief, frustration or anger that pops up in life circumstances. And it actually led to a couple of epiphanies around my past and future related to parenting, marriage and self-care.

I have a feeling this episode will prompt you to start looking at things differently and seeing opportunities to power up and experience more joy in your life, regardless of the things that get thrown at you.
