Meredyth with a Why

189: How Sitting In The IS is Life Changing


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m diving deep into something that has completely shifted how I live my life: learning to sit in the IS — accepting exactly where I am, right now, without judgment, regret, or the toxic trap of should.

I share how releasing jealousy, comparison, and unrealistic expectations has brought me peace, focus, and power. Instead of wishing I was somewhere else, doing something different, or being someone “better,” I’ve learned to ask: What can I do right now?

Here’s what I get into:

  • How letting go of jealousy creates space for inspiration and goal-setting.
  • Why you don’t have to obey your reptilian brain — and how to override it with intention.
  • Why the word should is dangerous — and how it feeds procrastination and self-doubt.
  • The difference between victimhood and active participation in your own life.
  • How radical acceptance of what is can become your most powerful tool for growth.

I bring in real-life stories, humor, and tough love to show how these mindset shifts play out in everyday life.

This episode is for anyone who’s ready to stop living in the what should be — and start showing up fully for what is. Let’s do this!
