Permission to Heal

What do our expectations and improvisational theater have to do with healing?
Ben Winter tells us in this amazing episode #28 of PTH.

Ben certainly hasn’t been idle in life. Ben has flown an airplane on his own and has been scuba diving in the Galapagos. He has seen the animals of Tanzania and has traveled all over Europe with a 6-month-old child in tow. He has performed improv for over a decade and has owned several businesses. Between personal growth and improv, he found this weird realm called expectations. And while most people would shy away from such a thing, he decided to tackle it head-on. Along his journey, he decided that “the only reason anyone gets upset is that an expectation hasn’t been met.” 

He began teaching in his Success Improv business and created the amazing “How to stop being upset” flow chart. He took everything that he has explored on the subject and put it in a book called, “What to Expect when Having Expectations.”

I was a guest on Shannon's podcast Wake up, Human. Listen here or here. Our conversation centered on the theme of giving ourselves permission to be who we are, and to seek inside ourselves for validation, instead of waiting for the outside world to give it to us.

Natasha Link is a freelance copywriter, a philosopher, and a mom of two daughters based in rural Minnesota. She studied psychology in college and worked in a variety of different fields before starting her own business. She is genuine, straightforward, and sarcastic. She has an open mind and a fierce heart. She is raising two strong, sassy little girls amidst the chaos of life. Natasha still believes in Magic. Love is her religion, and writing is her Church. She loves the way a good book makes her feel when she finishes it and hopes her words will inspire others in that way.

She writes for Elephant Journal and Medium magazine and started publishing my pieces there. Her first copywriting client found her through one of my EJ articles. After that, she launched her website and took a leap of faith, so far it has been one of the best decisions of her life. 

Her overall message is simply to live as authentically as you can. Find yourself through healing and embrace who you truly are. Loving yourself is the highest form of magic and gratitude is the love language of the Universe. Each person has a purpose here, but we need the courage to fulfill it. Her hope is that my words inspire others to find the strength to go after their dreams.
