Welcome back to the GYST Life Podcast for episode 55. We are fascinated with people and their stories. Caran Magaw and her dog piper join us this week with a story about victory.
What would be available for you if you started to explore and play in life NOW before you hit the proverbial ROCK BOTTOM? What if you were just cool with what is going on right now in the moment rather than always being in control. Emotions are not absolute, they are not to be controlled, they are to be discovered, explored and experienced.
We’ve all had moments where life occurs like you’re losing your shit. Caran has literally been there and back. Dealing with our mental wellness can be a lonely journey and the reality is we all need mental health and most of us don’t deal with it very well.
Caran shares how lack of purpose in life had her completely lose her identity and the will to function, literally paralyzed on the couch for almost 2 years. Most of us are not aware of how subtle and persuasive the mind can be. The bottom line is if you don’t deal with your mind, your mind will deal with you.
Ok so how do you deal with it?
Ask questions like the following about yourself.
- What are you passionate about?
- What do you want to explore?
- Do you make yourself a priority?
Caran shares how she is flourishing as a result of exploring and developing a relationship with herself. Listen to how she shifted her context as she took responsibility for how she spoke with herself and allowed space to explore her curiosities.
It is very unlikely you’ve not experienced significant discomfort before having a breakthrough in your life. Embrace the discomfort of new experiences and see what is possible..
