The Worth Living For Podcast

In this episode, host, Kristina discusses the magic of finding the present moment, the impact it has on how life feels, and how it changes who you become in the richest of ways. She provides practical guidance for how to develop a practice of presence that actually makes sense for your life, even if you're busy or haven't previously had success with this sort of practice, be it mindfulness or just simply entering the present moment more fully.

Kristina also discusses how to beat the dopamine addiction that our devices and modern society overall have given to all of us. Some practical tips are included.

Finally, the episode covers how overthinking, over worrying, and over stressing are blocking you from the present moment and how to let that type of thinking go so, you guessed it, you can find more present moment awareness.

In this very first guest episode, Kristina is joined by therapist, yoga teacher, astrologer, and also her long-time friend, Julie Jacobson for a fascinating discussion on the lesser heard perspectives on how to create a professional life that feels rich and fulfilling while honoring the true self and each of our own most honest needs and desires. 

In the episode, Kristina and Julie chat about how they first met, their roots as traditionally trained therapists and how they evolved beyond them, and the many ways that a career that for all intents and purposes was meant to remain traditional can become diverse, rich in connection, and fulfilling on levels that we may not realize we need fufillment on. 

The conversation also explores ideas of how to expand professionally without having to reinvent yourself or your career path, being more seen and how to handle the internal backlash it can sometimes cause, and how to lean into the idea of service to others and the world as a means of finding professional satisfaction.

In this episode, host, Kristina dives into a common block for many of us to creating a life that feels worth living: anxiety. Because anxiety tends to be so pervasive on both physiological and psychological levels, it stands in the way of living life to the fullest and even of being willing to try to create a life richer in meaning.

In the episode, we'll explore how to use your anxiety as a tool for personal growth, how to deepen your understanding of yourself through your journey to reduce or alleviate your anxiety, and how to actually alleviate it. 

Kristina also explores an interesting perspective on how leaning more into "yes" moments and less into "no's" can simultaneously (and unexpectedly) lead to less anxiety and more meaning in your life.
