Feeling like you're back at square one in old ways of being or stuck in the same spot? 

In this podcast episode, we will dive deep into the concept of old ways of being. We discuss the initial progress made by individuals who start observing their thoughts and emotions. However, we also examine the common setback many face that leads them to feel at square one, once again. We dissect why this happens and how we can overcome it.

Throughout the episode, we emphasize the importance of consistency in practicing new ways of being. We encourage our listeners to take ownership of their experiences and continue on their journey of growth and evolution. We remind them that feeling like they're in the same spot is just another step in the process, and it's okay.

Join us as we unravel the complexities of change and progress. Tune in to this thought-provoking episode that will inspire you to keep going, growing, evolving, and changing, no matter what hurdles you face along the way. Remember, life is a continual climb up the mountain, and you are making progress, even when it's hard to tell.

• How to get to the point B that you're reaching for
• What you can do today to be a different version of you
• Why the journey will feel repetitive at times

This episode discusses the concept of "when two worlds collide", referring to brief interactions between people where their lives intersect. Jennie uses the metaphor of two lines on a graph that meet at a single point to illustrate this. 

She argues that in those moments of intersection, we should:

• Refrain from making that moment a "sticking point" that alters our course. Others' behavior in that moment is informed by their whole life up to that point, so it likely has little to do with us. Making it a "sticking point" risks judging them unfairly.

• Avoid judging others based on that brief interaction. We don't know their full story and life experiences that shaped them. Judging them is unlikely to be accurate or fair given our limited perspective.

This applies not just to others, but to ourselves as well. When we don't act as we'd like, we shouldn't make it a moment that defines us. We should show ourselves compassion, as our behavior is also shaped by our past experiences.

The key lessons are to not judge in those moments of intersection, but instead to show love, grace, and compassion to both others and ourselves. Brief interactions should not become defining for us or for others. Giving grace allows us to move past those moments without bitterness or self-condemnation.

Jennie encourages missionaries to apply this perspective with their companions and investigators. Rather than judge them based on first impressions, missionaries should remember that others have lived full lives before their paths crossed. Showing grace and compassion will allow missionaries to build stronger relationships and have a more positive mission experience.

Thriving is a buzzword that's been thrown around a lot lately. We're all searching for ways to improve our lives, to be happier, to be healthier, to be more successful. You hear missionaries say that they are thriving on their mission. Or you hear return missionaries say that their dating lives are thriving...But what does it really mean to thrive? Is it about achieving external goals or manifesting a certain lifestyle? Or is it something deeper, more intrinsic?

In this podcast, we'll explore the idea that thriving is about what is within us, rather than something that is manifested outside. We'll discuss how thriving does not mean the absence of struggle, but rather, it means persevering through the winters and stormy months. We'll also touch on how we can fall into the trap of using the idea of thriving to work against ourselves, and how our unrealistic expectations can hinder our ability to truly thrive. Finally, we'll touch on the cyclical nature of thriving, and why it's important to acknowledge that not every season will be a blooming spring or a sunny summer. Join us as we explore how thriving is not just a destination but a journey within ourselves.

Listen in to Learn:

• How to make the stormy times a little lighter
• What you can do today to "thrive" out in the mission field (or any other aspect of life)

Are you someone who constantly feels like your life is a never-ending rollercoaster ride? Maybe your mission has felt that way or schooling or being a parent. Do you often wonder why you feel this way when you are taking steps toward achieving your goals? Well, let me tell you something - it's completely normal to seek progress and growth in life. However, it becomes detrimental when you place your entire sense of self-worth and happiness on achieving those things.

In this episode, we'll be discussing the concept of the "achievement high" and how it can often lead to a rollercoaster-like feel to our lives. Instead of constantly striving for bigger and better accomplishments, we'll be exploring the idea of finding fulfillment in the journey itself - not just the destination.

By understanding the pitfalls of placing too much emphasis on achievement, we can begin to shift our mindset towards one of hope and excitement. We'll also explore how embracing belief in ourselves and our abilities can help us feel more grounded and less swept up in the ups and downs of life. So, get ready to feel empowered and inspired to create a more fulfilling and sustainable way of living!

• How to work toward your goals and be proud of the result no matter what
• Tools to overcome placing your value in what you do

Today we are celebrating our 100th episode of the podcast. And to celebrate, I’m having a conversation with my friend and mentor, Jody Moore.

If you are a missionary or an RM you may struggle with setting goals or taking your life or mission a little seriously.  When things feel heavy and it all feels “high stakes” we actually do less in moving towards what we really want.

In my conversation with Jody we talk about the differences between coaching and therapy, how coaching has changed both of our lives, the benefit having fun and how to drop comparison and lean into the process.

Listen in to learn:

• How adding fun into the process can be critical to your success
• Why reaching or not reaching your goal doesn’t have to mean anything about you
• How to drop the comparison trap and go after what you want

After having her first two kids, Jody Moore struggled with work/life balance, embracing motherhood, and liking herself. As an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints she felt guilty for not loving the role of mother and wife, and turned to life coaching for help. The transformation she experienced not only helped her at work and at home, it strengthened her testimony of Christ leading her to dive into learning the tools of coaching and to leave her position as a corporate leadership coach to launch her own coaching practice. Jody is certified through The Life Coach School and completed Master Coach Certification in 2018.

Today Jody has helped tens of thousands of people through her top-rated podcast Better Than Happy as well as her coaching membership program Be Bold. She has 4 children ages 6 – 16 and resides in Spokane, Washington with them, her husband, and their French bulldog Finn and cat Oscar.
