From Betrayal To Breakthrough

104: Betrayed by Expectations. Me vs. You w/ Maggie Kelly


Listen Later

Maggie Kelly is a mindful life coach, meditation instructor, podcaster, public speaker and awakener. After her son was born with cystic fibrosis, Maggie felt betrayed by her expectations of health for her son. Through meditation and mindfulness practices Maggie was able to turn introspectively to address her fear and dismiss her limiting beliefs.

Despite what you may think, ultimately you are not in charge. It is only by giving in to this universal power and accepting that you cannot control everything that you can find true peace. Today Maggie is here to provide you with actionable steps so that you can illuminate the roadblocks inside of yourself that are standing in the way of living an envisioned and awakened life.

By returning to the very foundational essence of who you are and what you are capable of, you can tune into what is around you and become at peace with the fact that nothing is permanent, both good or bad. Are you ready to take responsibility for your part in your betrayal and become okay with what happens when life doesn't fit your perfect picture? Share your thoughts on Maggie's story with us in the comments on the episode page.

Quotes

"I think that it's important when we are talking about betrayal and having a breakthrough from that experience or coming out of the grief of having been betrayed, I think it is important for us to stop and be a little mindful as to how did we get there." (2:49)

"I was living out constant and consistent never-ending fear, that that is what drove the show. The fear always drove the show and that's when I started to really get in touch with what that fear was about." (8:03)

"Most of us believe what we think, and very seldom do we check it out with anybody." (13:16)

"What meditation is about is for you to be able to notice that in that stillness your thoughts start to stray and take you away. And then in that noticing, bringing yourself back to that place of stillness." (19:23)

"What's really important when you are thinking that you have been betrayed is for you to actually step back and survey the situation and ask yourself what was my part." (21:57)
