71: How To Engineer Opportunities (Way of Living Podcast)
On how to engineer opportunities and how personal development came into my life when I needed it the most...
If you've ever wondered about my backstory then today's episode is for you. Recently I was invited to join Morgane Roos-Carreira on her show, The Way of Living podcast and we dove deep into my personal story, friends!
In my chat with Morgane, we talk about my personal journey, wearing lots of hats and how personal development came into my life at a time when I needed it most. I definitely go deep into some of the more difficult times and I honestly believe it's so important for us to talk about our challenges and how we overcome them. It can sometimes feel like we're alone in our struggles, so I hope that by sharing my own experience of depression and how I had to leave behind the person I thought I should be to step into the person I needed to become, it helps your honour your own journey.
You'll hear about my views on lifelong learning, the importance of routine in creating a healthy structure in our lives, the difference between reaction and intention, why managing our mindset is a fundamental piece of the progress puzzle, and how to deal with the inevitable working mom guilt. I also walk Morgane through the STEAR model which is my favourite tool for managing my mindset.
Listening back to our chat and reliving my personal journey really shows the power of perspective - living through challenge feels so incredibly hard at the time but I've come to believe that everything we go through is a lesson for us, we need to own our journeys, and I know I've learned so much from what I've been through over the last decade. I truly hope that you gain something from today's episode and that it gives you some perspective on your own journey.
