Habits on Purpose

All of our habits are here for a good reason, even if we don't like the habit itself. They're all adaptive or protective solutions that we've learned, and this is great news because it means we can unlearn habits that don't serve us.

Tune in this week to start playing investigator, uncovering patterns, and finding the underlying beliefs that fuel these habitual patterns. This work helps you intentionally change your habits, and I'm showing you how to keep your habit audit simple so it can have the maximum impact.

If you want to approach your life with more intentionality, one of the best ways to do this is to perform a habit audit. A habit audit is the process of looking at your habits, noticing what they tell you, and deciding which ones are serving you, and which ones you want to replace with new ones.

Tune in this week for part 1 of our series on habit audits to learn what a habit audit is, why it's useful, and how to start performing a habit audit in your own life. And be sure to come back next week to discover how to analyze the findings of your habit audit in the most meaningful way, so you can begin shaping your next steps.

We all suffer from painful, recurring thoughts from time to time. But I've noticed in my professional work (and even in my personal life) there are two especially common thoughts that plague our psyche and create so much day-to-day stress: 1) "I should know better" and 2) "I should be further along than I am right now."

These thoughts can impact us on a monthly, weekly, or even a daily basis. Whether they are a part of your subconscious or conscious mind, if we believe these thoughts it can be terribly difficult to convince ourselves there's truth to anything different. That's why, on today's episode, we're exploring this duo in-depth so we can address them proactively.

Join me this week as I show you the fastest way to figure out your relationship with rest, leisure, and play. You'll discover why disengaging to play or have downtime feels so challenging, why running on fumes doesn't benefit you or anyone else, and how to start shifting your lens on rest so you can start viewing it as a vital part of your life.

If being overly critical of yourself is your default state and changing self-judgment seems not only foreign but a bad idea, you're in the right place. This week, I'm showing you how self-judgment shows up for us, why it's not going to lead to lower standards, and how to use the best antidote to self-judgment in your everyday.
