Why Change Might Be Just What You Need – 276


Listen Later

One of the few certainties in life is also one of the things we fear most: change.

Change—whether expected or not—can instill fear in us due to the mere fact that what lies beyond it is unknown; we might see it as a threat to our purpose, safety, and comfort. But instead of fearing change, Darlene Brock and Julie Bender reason that it’s only frightening because we default to what can go wrong instead of what can go right. Change might be just what you need.

In this podcast episode, they challenge you to shift your perspective to embrace change and all the opportunities it can present. They’ll walk through some scenarios (think a new job or the end of a relationship) where change can offer more clarity and new areas for growth.

And if you’re still on the fence about change, let us leave you with food for thought: If you’ve encountered life changes before and you’re reading this today, that means you overcame them, and you’re capable of doing it again.

Quote of the episode:

“To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.” —Winston Churchill
