Happiness is a choice. In this episode, you'll be hearing about my personal experiences with sadness and how I've shifted my mindset to choose happiness instead. We talk about getting out of the victim mentality and rewiring negative thought patterns with positive alternatives. If you've been chasing happiness, this episode is for you. We touch on the importance of seeking out happiness, reaching out to people, and creating positive narratives. I also encourage being delusional towards the positive and not worrying about what others think. This episode is your reminder to be your own hero (be your own knight-in-shining-armor) and CHOOSE YOUR HARD, both of which will ultimately lead to a more fulfilling and aligned life.   Takeaways:

• Happiness is a choice and it takes work to cultivate it
• Choosing your hard 
• Getting out of a victim mindset
• Being your own hero
• Creating positive experiences for yourself
• Rewiring negative thought patterns
• Seeking out happiness and reaching out to people 
• Being delusional towards the positive
• How to stop worrying about what others think

Sound Bites

• "Just like the rewiring of your thought patterns into more positive ones, you can also do that with your life. You can rewire these negative experiences into more positive ones."
• "This totally reminds me of the Inside Out movie. Memories are not supposed to be just happy or just sad. A lot of times, there's interchangable expertiences, and you can take something and interject a little bit of happiness into it, or sorrow, or humor, or whatever the emotion is. You don't have to make all of your memories sad because you can go out there and choose a different narrative for yourself."
• "Choosing your own happiness is real. Taking your care of yourself is hard."

Sometimes the best thing you can say or do is nothing at all. In this episode, we dive into this concept and discuss the power of sitting in silence with your truth. Learn through this episode that the truth always comes out, and that sometimes it's best to not feel the need to explain yourself or convince others of your perspective. I believe in karma and the importance of knowing and approving of yourself first, and prioritizing the way you view yourself over how others view you. In this episode we talk about the damage of over-explaining and trying to change people who are not receptive to your opinions. Instead, I encourage choosing peace, being introspective, and recognizing when it's not worth wasting your energy on certain relationships.    Takeaways:

• The truth always comes out, so it's not necessary to constantly explain yourself or defend your position.
• Sitting in silence with your truth can be powerful and beneficial.
• Knowing and approving of yourself is more important than seeking validation from others.
• Not everyone is receptive to your opinions, and it's not worth wasting your energy on those who won't listen.
• Choosing peace and being introspective can lead to a more fulfilling and peaceful life.

"The truth always comes out."

"Knowing the answer, but being quiet about it anyways is the best thing you can do."

"Sometimes the best thing you can do is sit back and watch. That is so powerful."

"Patience is often bitter, but its fruit is sweeter."

In this episode, we discuss one of my favorite mantras/ways of life: the importance of feeling the fear and doing it anyways. I spontaneously applied to give a TEDx talk at age eleven about self-love and inner beauty... and got in! In that quote When I say I live by this quote, I LIVE by this quote. I can't overemphasize how powerful this mindset is - specifically, how the I share some of my personal experiences with anxiety and social anxiety in middle school. As always, I emphasize the power of self-love and being true to yourself :) Listen to this episode if you want to feel encouraged to take action to pursue your passions, even in the face of fear and potential embarrassment. Another highlight we talk about is how to attract people aligned with you by being authentic and living a life true to your values.   Some of what we cover:

• Feeling the fear and doing it anyway being key to personal growth and success.
• Anxiety is a common human emotion, and a healthy amount of anxiety can lead to peak performance.
• Embarrassment is a mindset and can be overcome by choosing to not be affected by others' opinions.
•  Being true to oneself and pursuing passions attracts many people most meant for you and leads to a more fulfilling life.

"The difference between a brave person and a coward is that the brave one feels the fear, but does it anyways."

"If everyone was their truest self, the world would be a better place."

"The only difference between someone being brave and someone being a coward is that the coward feels the fear and chooses to retrieve, but the brave person will do it anyways."

As always, I would LOVE if you reached out to me on @radiantjewelsco and let me know your thoughts on the show! If you want to help a girl grow... consider leaving a rating! Hope you enjoy!
