This week's episode was all about authenticity.  We had a conversation with creator and owner of The Foodie's Fit Home.  Both Ashley and I had changes in attitude during this episode!  Ashley's change was around why she was on the show and broadening her platform and mine was around the definition of authenticity.  I'm talking "Thriving in the Transition" in action, people!  What does authenticity mean to you and what role does authenticity play in your transitions?

The way we view the world, our mindset, can have an impact our intended results.  In fact, my mindset AND some electronic circumstances almost led to this week's episode not happening.  However, you're reading this - so, it did happen - thanks to pausing and thinking about this situation. Similarly, one of the most powerful and opposing points of view are Scarcity and Abundance.   Which are you more comfortable or familiar with?  

Additionally, feel free to check out the the blog post I created on this topic a few years ago:

What are you thankful for?  How do you show appreciation? How do you practice gratitude?  All of that and more in this week's episode.  I share my perspectives on gratitude and I even bring in reinforcements from the medical and psychological communities to share definitions, tips and best practices related to gratitude. We also talk about the health and well-being benefits of gratitude.  It's a great episode!

You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.  What the heck does that have to do with this podcast or anything else?  Well, I assert that it has everything to do with it all.  Your attitude impacts your opportunities and how you're perceived.  But you can't control everything - so, what do you do in those times where you can't control everything?  Our answer - Assume Positive Intent.

What's the difference between getting stuck and floundering in the transition and being motivated and thriving in the transition?  I think it is as simple as the difference between Creation and Consumption.  Those that create MORE than they consume are the people that have the power and opportunity to affect true change.  Think about it - like voting - you can go out and let your voice be heard and be part of the change or you can be silent and let change happen to you. The reality is that those who create MORE than they consume will thrive in the transition!

What about faith? Don't you have to have a certain amount of faith during transitions?  Yes, yes, you do!  This week we get to talk with James A. Harris III about  faith and the role it plays during our times of transition.  There is a dependability – a guide – a destination – a purpose that is there even when people fail you. Listen for your self!

It's easy to let finances have undue influence during our transitions.  The insecurity of NOT having money in the bank, losing a job or somehow "pivoting" can be stressful.  Conversely, the security of having savings or other assets may provide a boost of confidence or comfort when it's needed the most.  This week we talk to Andy Hill, podcaster, blogger and speaker on how finances can have an impact on the transition.  He also shares some tips on how to make the most of your finance during this crazy year of 2020.
