While uncertainty is something that is always present and will remain a fixture in our lives, it’s no secret that over the past 18 or so months, we’ve had unprecedented encounters with uncertainty. If this pandemic period has taught us anything, it’s really driven home the point that we aren’t half as much in control as we think we are. It’s also introduced us to some of our limitations and vulnerabilities, and opened our eyes to the need to develop strength in handling adversity and coping with uncertainty.

In this episode on reflections and realizations, we explore the lessons we can glean from the pandemic period to help us navigate our way forward.

It is indeed true that change is about the only thing in our lives that remains constant, and yet we often have a hard time coping with it as it comes and goes from our lives. For many, nothing feels more cloudy and uncertain, than the pandemic times we’re all living through at the moment. Courtney Wright, Wellness Practitioner, Coach and Owner of Blissfully You Wellness Services joins me for a conversation about why we have difficulty embracing change and how we can better navigate unexpected or uncertain waters we might find ourselves paddling through.  Guest: You can learn more about Courtney and her offerings at: www.blissfullyuwellness.com

While expectations help us operate in the world, we’re living in an increasingly interconnected world that exposes us to greater societal conditioning and pressures from the expectations of others. These pressures often have us conforming to the opinions and judgements of others in ways that can leave us feeling financially, physically or emotionally drained.

In this episode, we look at some of the reasons why we keep up appearances in the first place. What we can do to free ourselves from the judgement and expectations of others and what we stand to gain when we choose to hear our own voice louder than anyone else’s.
