What Fulfills You?

#306: Emily recently spoke at her alma mater, Chapman University, on her personal journey throughout her 20s since the age of 20 and how she's navigated college and life after graduating. During this session, she noticed some questions that focused on ultimately becoming a better version of oneself through finding and creating more likeminded friendships, building self-confidence, and also questions around navigating a breakup.

Our 20s are some of the most pivotal years and biggest opportunities to learn and grow, which become a foundation in life throughout our 30s and onwards. Take the time today to invest in yourself and create a better version of you - one that you'll be grateful for later.

#304: "Everything needs food to live, even love. If we don't know how to nourish our love, it withers. When we feed and support our own happiness, we're nourishing our ability to love. That's why to love means to learn the art of nourishing our happiness." via How to Love - Thich Nhat Hanh

To mindfully show up on a daily basis in a loving frequency and energy takes a lot of practice. But, it first starts with a simple desire and interest in doing so.

When was the last time you kindly smiled to a stranger? How often do you see people simply looking at their phones, clearly preoccupied by the future or past, but not remaining in the present?

When you are in the presence of someone exuding a high loving frequency, have you noticed a difference? If you want to exude this yourself, what can you do differently today?

#302: Everyone talks about wishing they had more time to do the things they really want to do, but what does your schedule really indicate?

How much free time do you really have to make time for the hobbies and activities you're curious about?

#299: If you don't have a general vision or direction for your life, then you will eventually find yourself "floating" too much and almost getting lost. On the flip side, if you plan too much and think too far into the future, you will miss the present and the beauty of letting life happen in its flow.

The thing is, you really do need both. You need to create a general plan of where you're going to go, in order to know what things/people don't align with you on your journey, and vice versa.

So, how do you utilize both? Tune into this episode to hear more of Emily's thoughts on how she lets go of her rigid long-term vision planning and finds the sweet spot with "going with the flow", depending on the context.

#298: At some point in your life, you learn to recognize the value and importance of relationships, especially friendships, that deeply connect with you and leave a positive impact on your life.

The kinds of friendships where you can rely on the person to talk through tough times with you. The types of people that will drive hours, just to see you on a rare occasion.

These of course, take time to build. But what does it start with? Your intention and how you show up for others.
