What Fulfills You?

#336: Building your dream life starts with YOU and taking ownership of where you're currently at. There is no perfect path to a fulfilling, balanced life, but, the best way Emily can share this path is through sharing her personal experiences, decisions, and journey from the age of 20 and onwards.

If you're currently in a place in life where you notice that you're always looking for the next trip or something to look forward to, rather than your daily life, this episode is for you.

Your day-to-day is not meant to be something you run or escape from. YOU CAN feel deeply fulfilled in your daily life and here is a great place to start.

#333: Lacey Tisch was born with a rare congenital syndrome that causes a slew of medical setbacks, some of which continue to affect her health today. Throughout the years, she received many external treatments. Seven years ago, she began dealing with medical PTSD...a result of years of being poked and prodded by doctors to “fix” her. The medical PTSD was exacerbated by being unhappy in her job and actively engaging in her alcoholism. She could not figure out a way forward. After getting sober, Lacey wanted to find remedies that didn’t require taking medication or having procedures. She developed a major interest in exploring wellness.

Lauren Zucker is a dancer, and lifelong fitness and wellness enthusiast, who spent two decades working in the music and talent management industries. Lauren always thought her life would be lived linearly, that things would go according to a certain plan that included work, marriage, and kids. And then, life happened. Several people close to her were struggling with addiction and were in denial about it. She was also going through a painful divorce. After years of trying to ‘fix’ and help others, she realized, ultimately, she could only change herself.

She made the decision to fully commit to her own path of healing. This sparked curiosity about all things self-development, healing, and wellness. She met with practitioners and self-discovery experts all over the world in search of peace and happiness, reaching the conclusion that a sense of community and connecting with like-minded people was the most integral part of her healing journey.

Topics discussed:

• Different self-care and wellness practices to focus on, especially during difficult times in life
• Easiest way to make decisions in life, especially when it comes to big ones like divorce or breakups
• How Lauren and Lacey individually navigated their divorces in their 30s and overcoming the hardships
• The origin of Sage + Sound and how hardships brought them to wellness and self-development, and ultimately creating a community and space like Sage + Sound
• Truth about "balancing it all" as women and removing the narrative that you can't embody all the things you want to be
• How to be mindful about who you choose as your life partner

#332: What does it mean to "date yourself"? Well, consider this...how would you want to be treated if YOU were to date YOU?

What kind of activities would you want to try? Where would you want to explore and travel? How do you want to feel?

The interesting part to this, is that when you start to date yourself and show true self-love and care to YOU, you'll notice the energy and feelings that you feel within.

This often feels light, rejuvenating, and aligned. In a way that is hard to describe in words.

If you're feeling stuck in anyway when it comes to feeling self-confident, inner peace, and feeling comfortable in your own solitude, then this episode is for you.
