57: b Cause Without a List We Can't Persist: Top 10 Pandemic Positives


Listen Later

From connecting with others to helping our local communities to women having "equality" barriers come crumbling down, Erin and Nicole come to this week's episode with an uplifting Top 10 list. It's a heavy dose of gratitude sprinkled with doses of humor that hopefully will also have you seeing the pandemic positives. What do you think number one is? And what is the thing that you have now as a result of COVID that you're the most grateful for? Nicole Licata Grant starts off by talking about her marathon Sasquatch binge-watching. Is there a conspiracy with Netflix, forcing Nicole to watch conspiracy theory videos? Or does Nicole just watch so many conspiracy theory videos that Netflix is kindly suggesting others she might like? Erin Hatzikostas asks Nicole to discuss one thing that certainly isn't a conspiracy: her recent promotion. Nicole discusses people's reaction to the news, and how her method of letting the world know is probably slightly different to how most people do it. Nicole asks Erin to talk about the recent workshop that she led alongside Kaitlyn Czapiga called "Your Richest Life." Erin talks about the magic they were able to create for the attendees by combining their complementary skillsets and knowledge to develop this program that helps people find their "ikigai", or their life's purpose.  Erin discusses hiring a book coach to help her with her writing process, and how when you're taking on a huge project it can be extremely beneficial to get some aid. She also encourages people to adopt the "shitty first draft" mindset that is used as a writing technique. They move on to their Top 10 list for this week. "Top ten things that are actually good out of Covid." From connecting with others and helping our local communities, to planning our futures differently and saving, and even connecting with our natural environment more.  If you like jammin' with us on the podcast, b sure to join us for more fun and inspiration!

"In these times we feel unbalances because we've lot regular things that we do." "To go on a journey you need a couple of things, a compass and a map, but it's pointless to go with the compass and not the map." "Our Top 10 list: because without a list, we can't persist." "There's an opportunity to do a lot of good, in our communities and in our families." People are seeing the Himalayas from parts of India for the first time in a generation."

"Less is more." "Sometimes you have to strip things away from your life, in order to have a richer life." "People need to be more accepting when they are sick, to give themselves space to make themselves well."
