Is balance achievable in the modern world? How can we thrive in all areas of our life?  (Is this even possible?!)

In this episode of the Starting Over podcast, Dr. Diana - a highly regarded clinical psychologist - and I discuss the concept of balance in life, how to achieve it, and the role of self-compassion in overcoming challenges. 

She shares her own starting over - quitting her PhD for her own health, feeling like an imposter, healing from an eating disorder and using her personal challenges to help others.  

Dr. Diana also delves into strategies for cultivating self-compassion, including compassionate touch, cognitive defusion, and embodying compassion.

Additionally, she addresses the phenomena of self-sabotage and the value of internal motivators over external ones. The episode emphasizes the transformative power of self-awareness, the significance of intrinsic motivators, and practical steps towards fostering self-compassion in oneself and our children.

Practicing the skill of COMMITMENT will change your life! When's the last time you showed up fully committed to making something happen in your life? 

Closing the escape routes. Betting on yourself. All, in on all in? Stopping at nothing until you get there? Did you get there?

We have gotten so used to wishy washy "maybe" "if I feel like it" "that sounds nice" "we will see what happens" energy. But that is not the way to create our grand vision.

Sure, commitment takes practice, discipline, focus, integrity, worthiness. Knowing when to take action and exert effort and when to ease up and surrender.

And when we finally show up, create and receive what we truly want, isn't it always worth not giving up?

 Serve the commitment, and then the commitment serves you. The best way to predict the future is to create it. 

This episode is all about DIGGING DEEP - for determination, perseverance and GRIT.
