Hey friends! Today, we're chatting about embracing the uncertainties of life together, recognizing what gratitude really gives us, and reminding ourselves of the resilience we all carry.

I invite you to consider:

- What parts of your life give you comfort?
- Where in your day-to-day are the moments that you would really miss if you could no longer have access to or experience those 'little' things (even if momentarily)?
- How does acknowledging all sides of life and it's uncertainties allow you to move forward in showing compassion & care to yourself and your fellow human?

Plot twist: The person driving super slow ahead of you is an older man bringing his wife flowers and his #1 focus is not toppling the vase over...(& other random tidbits on choosing to see the best in people first).

Introspective questions to consider from this episode✨

1. How often do I consciously choose to assume the best in others, and how does that perspective shape my interactions and relationships with them?

2. In what ways do I allow pre-planned negative thoughts or imagined scenarios to influence my mood or decisions, and how might embracing optimism change that experience?

3. How can I practice cultivating a mindset that sees challenges as opportunities for growth and connection, rather than obstacles or setbacks?

"The question is not how we can change ourselves and our situation, but instead, how can we accept that certain things are just impermanent?"

A song that inspired this episode: Golden Hour by Casey Kalmenson

If you enjoyed this episode, here are a few introspective prompts for you to consider:

1. How do I respond when things I once believed to be stable or permanent in my life begin to change?

2. In what areas of my life am I holding onto expectations of permanence, and how might this affect my sense of contentment or peace?

3. Do I view the idea of growth as a spiral rather than a linear path? How am I expecting myself to be linear in ways that aren't feasible?

4. What patterns or situations keep resurfacing in my life, and how has my understanding or reaction to them evolved over time?

5. How can I cultivate a mindset that embraces impermanence, while still finding joy and contentment in the present moment?

As always, I'm in this journey with you.
