7: The Art of Epiphany

Ahh... Epiphany. I love epiphany. Don't you? Epiphanies inspire our growth. Insights spark increasing awareness. Aha's give us fresh perspectives. The problem is: sometimes our own expectations about what epiphany looks like, our false assumptions about how it's supposed to happen actually get in the way of the revelation we crave. In this episode, I'm sharing an essay I wrote about why this happens and what we CAN do to foster epiphany instead of blocking it unintentionally. Learn more: ⁠⁠https...

6: When We Numb Our Soul-Suffering

"What motivates me to move forward in life - a lot of times, it's just the pain of not." Some of us are sensitive to pain, and especially what I call 'Soul-suffering.' So we train ourselves to numb it. We numb our misery. We numb our desperation. And in the process, we also numb our callings and dreams. Let's explore what happens when we break the habit of numbing and start seeing our pain as a gift that gets us going in our Soul's direction. Learn more: ⁠https://theartoflivingboldly.com/⁠ Refer...

5: The Grief of Becoming

Changing our lives brings up many emotions. Last week, I talked about the fear of change that can drive us to choose the familiar path. But there is another experience that inevitably gets triggered by transformation: Grief. Whenever we initiate anything new in our lives, we also experience a painful loss—the loss of our old identity. Even if it's a change we intentionally choose, if we do not acknowledge and grieve our loss, we risk thwarting our own evolution. In this episode you'll discover w...

4: Attuning to Fear

On a recent vacation, my cellphone decided to kick the bucket. That, plus my intention to 'be present' during the trip, taught me an unexpected lesson about fear. I've started to realize that most of the time, rather than feel my fear, I just react to it. It's often unconscious. But I'm learning that attuning to fear and feeling my fear is actually the most powerful way to go. Learn more: ⁠https://theartoflivingboldly.com/⁠...

3: Dark Night of the Soul

We all go through periods in our lives when we feel lost, stuck, full of doubt, and low on hope. I recently endured a dark night of the soul that lasted for several months, and I'm (finally!) emerging, stronger and wiser, on the other side. In this episode I share what helped me through. I talk about reconnecting with our Souls, the power of simple pleasures, and what Uncle Iroh (from Avatar: The Last Airbender) taught me about the meaning of inner strength.

2: Participate, Don't Belong

As human beings, we all crave connection and long for belonging. But how can we measure belonging? How can we guarantee that we belong? We can't. In this episode I share a powerful alternative, a mindset shift that empowers us and eliminates the elusive need to belong. Learn more: ⁠https://theartoflivingboldly.com/⁠

1: Join the Dance

"And though you never know all the steps, you must learn to join the dance." It's mighty tempting to follow the step-by-step paths we see laid out for us. We think they are a shortcut to success, a fool-proof way to avoid failure and mistakes. But I believe that our true path is not the one we can see neatly laid out ahead--it's the one we create with every inspired step. Living boldly is about blazing our own path, which requires flights of faith, a deep trust in ourselves, and a willingness to...
