107: You Are a Product of Your Environment

Listen Later

Do you ever see yourself changing into something you do not want to become?

Do you feel you're losing who you are?

Are you the YOU you want to be, or are you simply a product of your environment?

In this Episode I discuss: 

  • some awful memories that resurfaced from when my husband had emergency surgery in 2010
  • the person I saw him starting to become again leading up to a recent medical procedure that he had done
  • the realization that what I was seeing was Ed becoming a product of his environment (sick people in a hospital) 
  • the power you have to change a situation you may be in if it's not allowing you to be who you are

    Take some time to journal and reflect on WHAT in your environment (a job, relationship, where you live, etc.) is holding you back from being who you want to be?

    Then ask yourself these questions: 

    What do you want to change? 

    How will you do it? 

    What help do you need to ask for to make it happen?
