Ever catch yourself fantasizing about "what could have been" even when everything seems perfect? Join us this week on Redefining Normal as Jamie and I uncover why our minds drift into these "what if" scenarios and how they steal joy from our present moments. Through a recent personal story about selling a house, we'll illustrate how even the best outcomes can lead to unnecessary mental wanderings. We'll discuss how this mindset impacts every facet of life—from relationships and parenting to business goals—and share strategies for balancing future aspirations with a peaceful appreciation of the present.

Explore the delicate balance between contentment and the desire for change with us. We emphasize the importance of internal alignment, gratitude, and the courage to make necessary changes when something isn’t serving us. We'll also dive into the transformative power of shifting your inner dialogue. Learn how changing your mindset can bring about profound peace and contentment, even if your external circumstances remain the same. Packed with personal anecdotes and practical affirmations, this episode is your guide to cultivating a more serene and abundant life.
