Growth through Challenging Times

In this episode of Wild Soul Confidential, Tonya Whittle; founder and Guide of Wild Soul Living gets real about growth during difficult times.  

In this episode you will hear Tonya talk about:

  1. Humans are born with 2 fears - Falling and Loud Noises - the rest are manufactured
  2. Fear = forget everything and run or face everything and rise 
  3. Expand Vs Contract  -- Our condition has taught us to contract. Our natural instinct wants to grow.


When things get hard we’ve often learned to pull back. We have learned or someone told us along the way to not show emotions, to not let things get to us, we learned to not try if we could potentially fail or look dumb or not what we want.  we are ALL growing through 2020. We are faced with new challenges on the daily in a world that looks nothing like we’re used to. From facemarks to uncertainty around economy, travel, what will the world look like in 1-2 years?

It’s in the challenges that we really find out what we’re made of. It’s int he hard times we get to see what we’re capable of, what’s inside of us and if we don’t like what we are seeing  and our own behaviour… or if we don’t like where we are… we CAN chose to grow through it. 


We will not create the change we want by contracting and hiding. We will not create the life we want by living in denial about what we have or living in fantasy with no action about what we want. 
Wild Soul living is about living the cards were given full out. And because of the years of working deep on my internal empires, I can use this time, as well as any other time in life to re evaluate where we are, where want to be, where we are going and how to get there with what we have. 

when we are presented with difficult times, whether it’s now during a global pandemic or it’s any other time in life when things get hard… we have to lean in, we have to ask better questions, we need to get help, we need mentorship and coaches and networks of people who are rising during difficult times when most people are trying to hang onto the old, growth during difficult times means leaning into the fear, it means showing up when you want to run, it means to sitting in the discomfort until it teaches you. 


That’s how we grow… by learning in instead of out… which is why so few do it… because it’s the hardest thing…
