The New Beyond with Dr. Judith Rich

S3 E10 Ya Gotta Have Grit: But Know When to Quit

This week we’re taking on the subject of grit, brought forward into public awareness by American psychologist, Angela Duckworth and her research on the topic.

Her research shows that grit is more predictive of success and achievement than intelligence or natural ability.  It also suggests that people with higher levels of grit are happier and more satisfied with their lives.

I’m not so sure about this, so this week, I’m discussing another part of the grit equation that Duckworth’s research doesn’t address.  And that is the idea that there is a downside to having too much grit and there is value in knowing when to quit.

Quit is not a term we like to use.  We’re taught never to quit, never give up, keep forging on, even sometimes to our own detriment.  So let’s reframe the word “quit” and consider an alternative term.

We’ll hear some shares from members of the Living in The New Beyond Facebook group on the prices they’ve paid for not knowing when to quit and we’ll consider the importance of teaching our children how to develop grit.

Join us as we consider both sides of the equation.  How important is grit in our lives today and what are the prices we pay for not knowing when to take our foot off the gas and take a pause?

Season 3, Episode 5: What If What You Want Wants You?

Here’s an interesting thought:  What if you want, wants you?

Think of all the things you want……. Love, relationships, money, health, family, etc.  All of those things already exist as unmanifest potential.  What if that potential is available to align with your own consciousness?

I know that sounds crazy, but remember, in the realm of consciousness, things are not always as they appear to be.

In order to even contemplate this thought, let’s pull waaay out, beyond ordinary reality, and consider how the Quantum Reality works.

In the quantum field, everything is energy.  Including you.  Including me.  Including all your thoughts, feelings, emotions, actions, etc.  Literally everything is energy.  And that energy is vibrating at a certain frequency.

How we bring that energy into form and create our material reality is the subject of this podcast.  Think you need to be a scientist to make sense of all this?

Consider this idea:  you’re already a scientist!  It might not be your job title or your training, but you were born curious about how things work.

So put on your “Curiosity Caps” and join us for this fascinating discussion of how the very thing we are seeking is seeking us and learn how to bring it into form.

Season3, Episode 3: Making Friends With Uncertainty

How are you doing in these times of so much change and uncertainty?

If you’re like most people, you’re probably quite uncomfortable with too much uncertainty.  Why?  Because humans are wired for certainty and abhor uncertainty.

We want life to be predictable and we want to be prepared for what is coming.  We want answers and we want them now.  This is not a bad thing.  It’s perfectly normal.

Yet in times like these, with massive change as the norm, the only thing that is certain is that more uncertainty is ahead.

For some, massive change can feel exciting and thrilling.  They love new beginnings and are energized by change.  For others, change might produce fear and anxiety as they cling to what is safe and known.

What if you could learn how to not only survive change, but learn to thrive in it?

Join me in this episode as we unpack the challenges we face in today’s world that is rife with change and uncertainty.

Learn to identify your superpowers, your inner qualities that can help you face changes that are coming, invited or uninvited.

Season 3, Episode 2: Navigating Endings and Beginnings:  Lynne Sheridan

As we start a new year, let’s talk about beginnings.  But beginnings are not the whole story since a beginning is often preceded by an ending.  Both beginnings and endings can be challenging, so let’s take them both on.

My guest on The New Beyond this week is Lynne Sheridan, a transformational trainer and licensed marriage and family therapist who works with individuals and couples in navigating their lives through endings and beginnings.

Lynne is the author of The Birds and Bees of Joyful Monogamy:  Nine Secrets to HOT Partnering and is a relationship expert, with a wealth of experience in working with couples to truly connect, with a depth of intimacy, understanding and compassion.

Join us, as Lynne and I sit down together to discuss what it takes to successfully navigate the challenges of ending what no longer serves, or is complete in our lives, as well as managing the opportunities that arise when something new appears on the horizon or is dropped suddenly, sometimes without notice, into our lives.

How we meet these two seemingly opposite experiences, whether in excitement or in dread, will determine how well we navigate them and what we can create on the other side.

S3 E1: What is Your Impossible Dream?

There are many futures in front of you.  Some of them are almost here and you can see and predict what they hold.

But if you look out far enough, there is a future that is waiting for you, that from here, you cannot see or even predict.  I’ll call it your “Impossible Future”.

That “impossible” future is the home of the dreams that live inside you that are SO BIG, you dare not even dream them or speak about them.

Or maybe you’ve never even allowed yourself to think or dream that big.  But what if you did?  What if you could reveal to yourself the spark of a dream you harbor inside that seems impossible to reach from here?

That’s what we’re taking on in this episode of The New Beyond.  What if this year, 2023, could be the year that you ignite the spark that gives life to those dreams, and you could bring them into form?

What does it take to do that?  What are the stories you’ve told yourself that have kept you from daring to dream those big dreams?

Join me as we explore the territory of bringing forth those big dreams and begin living them.  It’s never too late and you’re never too old.  What could it look like for you?
