Whether it’s saving for retirement, starting our own business, or trying to lose some weight, Gen X’ers are as much a victim of our American “hustle” culture as every other generation. This hustle culture mentality emphasizes constant productivity, relentless ambition, and the glorification of busyness. And the effects of this hustle mentality include: → equating our worth with our productivity, → hyper-focus on the future rather than the present, and → stress, burnout, and anxiety (just to name a few). https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/uncertainty-bites-how-gen-x-can-find-confidence-courage-and-clarity-through-life-transitions monthly 0.5 2024-03-05 https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/7-tips-for-sustainable-physical-well-being-in-our-40s-andnbspbeyond monthly 0.5 2024-02-20 https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/is-genx-comfortably-numb monthly 0.5 2024-02-12 https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/embracing-52-8-tips-for-genxers-making-another-trip-around-thenbspsun monthly 0.5 2024-02-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/8622c836-36fa-4861-b23b-36bf1b024dec/GenX+undefined+1.jpg Blog -

Or at the very least, we have this longing . . . this pain in our hearts and in our souls . . . that this life, as much as we may have chosen and participated in it, is actually our “unchosen” life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1686586823672-CQNFEPQIXO3U0OS0NSU6/image-asset.jpeg Blog - 4 Reasons for GenX’ers to Get Support in Their 40’s and 50’s - The reason this makes perfect sense is that we have spent the first part of our adulthood learning how to “play by the rules.” How to fit in with our families, our professions, our cultures, our society. We’ve spent our childhood years figuring out what’s acceptable and unacceptable in life. Learning social graces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1686587946054-7BMTL74LS9VH047QBIVQ/image-asset.jpeg Blog - 4 Reasons for GenX’ers to Get Support in Their 40’s and 50’s - Learning to ask for and receive help has been one of my biggest growth edges over the last few years. I have to actively work at “receiving” in general—including receiving compliments or receiving someone’s offer to buy me lunch or dinner. And I have to constantly lean into the discomfort and vulnerability of affirmatively asking for help or support, which necessarily means that I “need” help or support. And “needing” help or support feels very sticky for an independent latchkey kid of the 80’s. https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/7-things-tornadoes-can-teach-us-about-mental-health monthly 0.5 2023-05-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/4d723919-8509-4270-8f90-ac5811e87878/Tornado+Bailey.jpg Blog - 7 Things Tornadoes Can Teach Us About Mental Health The bed - where my dog Bailey would have been sleeping if my mom hadn’t gone to pick him up - was covered in debris. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1685394283370-E8IULZUZZOOAP1D2JVHT/Tornado+1.jpg Blog - 7 Things Tornadoes Can Teach Us About Mental Health https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1685394283135-ATIVAFNC3D7XCKYSD32E/Tornado+2.jpg Blog - 7 Things Tornadoes Can Teach Us About Mental Health https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1685394284905-3DE21QFVZN0H3EV2NBWF/Tornado+bedroom.JPG Blog - 7 Things Tornadoes Can Teach Us About Mental Health https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/9ba810b0-ee5b-4985-b69c-fc9974c9b5fb/Mom%27s+house+after+tornado.JPG Blog - 7 Things Tornadoes Can Teach Us About Mental Health - Make it stand out My mom’s house was the unit on the left.

That it’s something to experience (if at all) for a limited amount of time, and then it’s time to “move on.” And god forbid if you get “stuck in your grief,” then there’s something wrong with you. People don’t want to spend time with you because you’re too much of a “Debbie Downer.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1684707583424-T3UTQLGQ58Q8UZLL56NX/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Saying “Hello” to the Grief Beneath In my experience, grief is the undercurrent of so many mental health struggles. And like a riptide in the ocean, unseen grief can pull us under without any warning. Also like a riptide, the more we fight against the grief, the more likely we are to go under and drown in the ocean of our accumulated lifetime of grief. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/67b81de7-ad2f-47f9-b0be-337b40e7610b/Fall+apart.png Blog - Saying “Hello” to the Grief Beneath - “Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don’t really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It’s just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy.” https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/behind-the-scenes-of-mental-health-struggles monthly 0.5 2023-05-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1684195092145-769BCJGKOXZORSC8OEWH/unsplash-image-nJupV3AOP-U.jpg Blog - Behind the Scenes of My Mental Health Struggles - My experience, albeit undiagnosed, has been with anxiety and depression. I know that most mental health professionals would caution against self-diagnosing. (And honestly, I have some issues with the “checklist approach” of the mental health profession, which assumes that in order to make a diagnosis, not only does a person have to “meet all the criteria,” but also that there is some generally accepted view of what is and isn’t “normal.” Needless to say, notions of what is “normal” are rooted in white supremacy - a topic for another day). So, although I may not have a technical, clinical diagnosis of anxiety or depression, I have realized in recent years that this feels like how my lived experience can be categorized. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1684195769117-7IWV50B1E72X46RBTBAW/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Behind the Scenes of My Mental Health Struggles - That’s the tricky thing about mental health issues: the people who experience them become experts at hiding them. Mental health issues are a sneaky bitch. One of the many reasons that people can become an expert at hiding their mental health issues is the associated stigma. We get really good at hiding our emotions, stuffing them down, and, consequently, letting them snowball. So, in the hope of trying to take the wind out of some of that stigma, I wanted to share what I had been experiencing lately. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1684195267169-ZZWLNVNG92BLYNF3NAYP/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Behind the Scenes of My Mental Health Struggles - Speaking for my fellow GenX’ers and probably the Baby Boomers too, we were rewarded for “moving past” difficult things. For “sucking it up.” For “turning that frown upside down.” For “looking on the bright side.” As my badass WWII Marine Corps grandpa, Papa Norman, used to say, “just look around, and you’ll see that someone has it worse than you.” So by God, when you feel like crying or complaining, you’d better stuff it down and think about someone who has it worse than you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1684195448922-T9EBGRY3FJD4E7QT7LT5/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Behind the Scenes of My Mental Health Struggles - I’ve noticed that since my mom died suddenly on May 25, 2012, my frequency and severity of depression has gotten worse. Like, duh. There’s a lot of unprocessed grief there too, which doesn’t help. In the last eight or so years, my depression has looked like this: https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/lets-cut-the-crap-about-mental-health-in-your-40s-and-50s monthly 0.5 2023-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1682543841801-CICTSTC94GX8VTI69QA9/unsplash-image-WlqXRIXx-xQ.jpg Blog - Let’s Cut the Crap About Mental Health in Your 40’s and 50’s - Generally speaking, GenX’ers’ mental health needs were deprioritized when we were growing up in the 70’s and 80’s. Values like “independence,” “do it yourself,” and “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” were prioritized instead. Consequently, anything that didn’t reflect those values was deemed weak, abnormal, or unacceptable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1682543761502-A9HDQM7Y363M44BCIJK3/unsplash-image-nhUYyqi8yRE.jpg Blog - Let’s Cut the Crap About Mental Health in Your 40’s and 50’s - There are many stigmas and myths surrounding mental health and mental illness, especially in the United States. Our country’s imperialist, capitalist, white supremacist, patriarchal (ICWP) foundations don’t allow much, if any, room for people to exist outside of what that dominant culture deems as “normal.” And what the ICWP deems to be “normal” are people who can suck it up, slap on a smile, do their work, look on the bright side, and stop their bitching and whining (or at least “bitch and whine” in silence so that they don’t make other people uncomfortable). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1603671315826-TDIM2UNA8H7SD9321MVM/Standing%2Bby%2Btree.jpg Blog - Let’s Cut the Crap About Mental Health in Your 40’s and 50’s - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1682543983921-SISE3SK74V9S4BS6NU2C/unsplash-image-Co8EFvl1Cvs.jpg Blog - Let’s Cut the Crap About Mental Health in Your 40’s and 50’s - Then, after GenX’ers spent decades raising their own families and/or working their way up their career ladder, they hit their 40’s and 50’s feeling wrung out, stressed, and lost . . . often wondering “who the hell am I?” and “how did I get here?” And I'm not just talking about feeling bad for a day or two. I'm talking about feeling really in a funk . . . sad, depressed, anxious, stressed, you name it . . . for prolonged periods, to the point where it's hard to get out of bed every day or to enjoy the things that you used. https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/the-one-paradox-to-make-you-an-unfuckwithable-genxer monthly 0.5 2023-04-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/2dc1f544-45dc-4f30-aeb8-b4f9bcda8fdf/Both+And.png Blog - This One Thing Will Make You an Unfuckwithable GenX’er - And that conflict is bull.

What we’ve done is drawn some arbitrary line in the sand to denote what we think is independent and what we think is dependent. Someone else may have drawn a totally different line. So, who’s right? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/0d86c95e-9c62-408f-97e6-1760338a30ff/Connected.png Blog - This One Thing Will Make You an Unfuckwithable GenX’er - The invitation of seeing independence and dependence as a paradox instead of a conflict is to lean into the fact that we are all connected. To accept that it’s not only okay, but indeed necessary, to rely on others. And when we can do that, we can stop resisting the fact that dependence is part of our human nature just as much as independence is. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/e823a323-6191-4bbf-8318-0113431befae/Independent+dependent+paradox.png Blog - This One Thing Will Make You an Unfuckwithable GenX’er - It’s the paradox of “independence and dependence.” https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/unleash-your-inner-genx-power-bonus-the-ultimate-game-changer monthly 0.5 2023-04-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/811165c9-c51c-45ae-9d73-a1c41ba1c375/Paradox+ahead.png Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Bonus - The Ultimate Game Changer So what is this level of consciousness?

And on the other side of that integration, I can see that there’s no conflict at all. That there’s a greater message. Maybe I take a vacation and do a lot of networking while I’m on the road so that I can build up connections for my business. Or maybe I stay home, knowing that by focusing on my business, I’m also finding financial freedom (for even more vacations later) as well as financial growth. Both values can be true at the same time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1b2db285-d1cc-4da4-be81-ca535d12db26/Conflict.png Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Bonus - The Ultimate Game Changer - Take the “values conflict” again. Say that I feel like I’m experiencing a conflict between my values of growth (and specifically financial growth) and freedom. I want to take a vacation to experience freedom, but I feel like I need to stay home to work on my business so that I can generate income and have financial growth. If I stay home, I feel like my value of freedom is being infringed. If I hit the road, I feel like I’ve sacrificed financial growth (and, indeed, undermined it by spending more money by going on vacation). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/dad8743f-5732-4c12-affe-dc7a29705a54/Screenshot+2023-04-02+at+10.29.15+AM.png Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Bonus - The Ultimate Game Changer - In Owning Your Own Shadow: Understanding the Dark Side of the Psyche (1991), Robert Johnson explains the relationship between contradiction and paradox: “Personal suffering begins when we are crucified between these opposites. If we try to embrace one without paying tribute to the other, we degrade paradox into contradiction. Yet both parts of opposites must be equally honored. To suffer one’s confusion is the first step in healing. Then the pain of contradiction is transformed into the mystery of paradox.” (p. 76). https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/7-step-basic-shadow-work-process monthly 0.5 2023-04-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1680388590187-E8MJ2CZ4B6OWWSPZRFCX/unsplash-image-EDJKEXFbzHA.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Pt 4 - 7-Step Basic Shadow Work Process - (Sidenote: 90% of the population has experienced trauma and many people haven’t been able to metabolize that trauma.

Since then I’ve participated in other group shadow work courses and done my homework . . . a lot of homework! In my opinion, some people over-promise when it comes to shadow work, trying to convince people that this work will be the solution to end all your struggles. Other people approach shadow work too cavalierly, with little to no regard for people’s current mental or emotional challenges, or for the existence of trauma that could be activated by this work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1680388681589-IOW82ISZ3545NS6KMFFL/unsplash-image-IM0GHpsjJic.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Pt 4 - 7-Step Basic Shadow Work Process - Now . . . hi ho, hi ho…it’s down the shadow work road we go. https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/6-reasons-genxers-are-uniquely-suited-for-shadow-work monthly 0.5 2023-04-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/2a54c9af-521f-47a9-b999-4e3354b0732f/Latch+key+kid+.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Pt 3 - 6 Reasons GenX’ers are Uniquely Suited for Shadow Work For example, I was a Latch Key kid for whom the independence and resourcefulness of spending a lot of time alone conditioned me to resist anything that could be perceived as “weakness” or a threat to my independence. Like relying on others for any kind of support or help - whether it be for work around the house or work around my emotional well-being. (Never mind the fact that “emotional well-being” wasn’t even a phrase that was in my GenX vernacular for most of my life). Or showing any kind of vulnerability. Or following rules.

Here are a few examples, along with how these events may have created shadows for GenX’ers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1679262680512-M0768XW7ADNVFGBA8HBM/unsplash-image-AoqgGAqrLpU.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Part 2 - The Generational Shadows - So . . . raise your hand if any of examples those land for you? https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/shadow-work-basics monthly 0.5 2023-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1679258074744-T27QF2S1SW08BDBH5R1W/unsplash-image-bH7kZ0yazB0.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Part 1 - Shadow Work Basics - It’s the topic of shadow work, and specifically, how GenX’ers can unleash their inner power through shadow work. In today’s post, we’ll explore the basics of shadow work - and I do mean basics. We’re keeping it at a 10,000-foot view for now. In week two, we’ll explore the unique cultural influences that have potentially created shadows for GenX’ers. In week three, we’ll cover why shadow work is so important for the Forgotten Generation. And finally in week four, we’ll learn some basic shadow work practices. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1679258933345-5Q8Y5Q7MN3SR853KD2VV/unsplash-image-BxHnbYyNfTg.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Part 1 - Shadow Work Basics - In simplest terms, our shadows are our triggers. They are what get activated when we blow up for no apparent reason. Why we get irritated when someone cuts us off in traffic. Why something seemingly trivial can send us into a tailspin. Why we feel like we can never be enough, do enough, or have enough. Why we can’t seem to move out of being stuck in our lives, meet a goal, or make a dream come true. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1679258425095-P12JDC3GO74RMMQDMBMX/unsplash-image-lgUiUeQpLHw.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Part 1 - Shadow Work Basics - The result is what Swiss psychologist and psychoanalyst, Dr. Carl Jung, called the creation of the “shadow.” The shadow “is that part of us that we fail to see or know.” Robert A. Johnson, Owning Your Own Shadow: Understanding the Dark Side of the Psyche (1971) (p. 4). Our shadows are the parts of us that we’ve disowned, disconnected from, or hidden away. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1679258270395-LXI92SWLAHHWWW2YXW0P/unsplash-image-jQRcc7ewDeo.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Part 1 - Shadow Work Basics - As a generation who came of age during the 70, 80s, and early 90s, GenX’ers have experienced a unique set of cultural influences that have shaped our worldview and impacted our relationship with ourselves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1679258832961-E39U6B1IEUBMOM8MHH8I/unsplash-image-_sh9vkVbVgo.jpg Blog - Unleash Your Inner GenX Power: Part 1 - Shadow Work Basics - In the meantime, I invite you to start getting curious about when you feel triggered. In general, there are three reasons we get triggered: We see something in someone else that we don’t like. We see something in ourselves that we don’t like. We see something that someone else has, like a trait, behavior, belonging, lifestyle, etc., that we want (envy), or, we’re afraid that something or someone that we have may be taken away (jealousy). https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/a-different-cold-war monthly 0.5 2023-02-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/223449bb-02ab-4c0e-b899-33ff38e8dc49/pexels-engin-akyurt-1446948.jpg Blog - A Different Cold War - Think about it . . .

In all honesty, I went to law school because I didn’t know what else to do with my life. I was a psychology major who didn’t think I wanted to become a therapist, so I wasn’t sure what to do after college. I’d taken a course my junior or senior year of college called Psychology and the Law and thought “well the law sounds cool.” That’s basically how I ended up in law school. I wasn’t one of those people who had always dreamed of being a lawyer. I just knew that I liked to argue and stand up in front of people to speak. I fell into law school without much thought. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1677175137223-R0ZJPBDWHW34ELYRB9JE/image46_0006_0042_Original.jpg Blog - Nobody Puts GenX In A Corner https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1677175136927-NFRIJOTLZP8FHP0G3VF9/Mom%2C+Clarence+Thomas%2C+and+Michele_Original.jpg Blog - Nobody Puts GenX In A Corner https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/9afdbf4b-8261-4f58-a498-9ccd45768084/IMG_5935_Original.jpg Blog - Nobody Puts GenX In A Corner - Make it stand out This is now my preferred office attire much of the time . . . . https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/ca3497aa-5ac9-407d-99a3-afe054174151/D3BB4B4D-7E34-4ACC-9F53-4951DB3FF170_Original.PNG Blog - Nobody Puts GenX In A Corner - I quit being a lawyer . . . and I traded in my suits and high heels for jeans and flats.

Our beautiful human brains like to make us believe that we can control everything. So, when something painful happens, often our first instinct is to “fix it.” “Figure it out.” “Make it go away.” Therein lies the resistance. Freezing or shutting down in the face of pain also is resistance. Completely checking out, disconnecting, ignoring the pain – those are all forms of denial. And denial – you guessed it – is resistance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1674513238139-IDOF5BTPP5M94HATPGJB/unsplash-image-_cbKur5I60A.jpg Blog - A Powerful Formula for Leaning Into Loss - The beauty of this equation is in the recognition that life IS and WILL HAVE pain. If you’re a living, breathing human, life will find ways to introduce pain. There’s no way around it. But, how much we suffer in the face of that pain, is up to us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1674513075272-LQQ1LL4FXNEDNUPD2Z82/unsplash-image-ISg37AI2A-s.jpg Blog - A Powerful Formula for Leaning Into Loss - One person may not understand how someone else can be so devastated by the loss of a furbaby. That first person may have a difficulty finding empathy or compassion for that second person who is feeling that loss very deeply. Consequently, the first person may try to “find the positive” or encourage the person who lost their pet that “it will all get better.” https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/2-practices-to-fuel-dr-kings-dream monthly 0.5 2023-02-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/69318773-012d-42a6-9c6f-ea90f16ceb97/MLK+memorial.jpg Blog - 2 Practices to Fuel Dr. King’s Dream - Much will be written today about honoring the legacy of Dr. King. As a white, cis-gendered, heterosexual, able-bodied, economically privileged woman who is constantly trying, falling short, and trying again to lean into a more anti-racist way of life, and in keeping with this month’s them of “leaning in,” I wanted to invite everyone to lean into two practices as we continue to journey toward Dr. King’s dream. These two practices—from my perspective of all the labels I named above—are solid gold when it comes to moving our country and the world closer to Dr. King’s dream. https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/leaning-into-rest-and-fun monthly 0.5 2023-02-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1673291917496-503BOG4MNWIWRRZPK8V5/unsplash-image-AoqgGAqrLpU.jpg Blog - 4 Tips for Leaning Into Rest and Fun - Raise your hand if you know those kinds of pressures! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/5199a3c1-8247-40c7-ab5b-6ab59f2da5b9/Screenshot+2023-01-09+at+12.27.39+PM.png Blog - 4 Tips for Leaning Into Rest and Fun - Make it stand out My new obsession . . . the Coachmen Cross Trail 20CBT. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1673292875135-BQYL5JYBZARCQW8ZROVC/unsplash-image-Sa1z1pEzjPI.jpg Blog - 4 Tips for Leaning Into Rest and Fun Consequently, we may find ourselves falling into another survival response: freeze or shutdown.

I think it’s a holdover from our Baby Boomer parents. Something that’s fueled by our fierce independence. The point is this: who told you that productivity should be a value? Or that it has anything to do with your value as a human being? Better yet, who told you that productivity should be valued over rest and fun? https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/blog/2023-leaning-into-the-shift monthly 0.5 2023-04-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1672615799488-NWEOR39ACPVG69KOMVKB/unsplash-image-8heYLZEgJp0.jpg Blog - 2023: Leaning Into The Shift - You have to tune into when the car needs to shift, otherwise you’ll likely screw up your engine; and You never want to shift up more than one gear at a time . . . otherwise, you may be walking back down the road to pick up your transmission.

So that unknown, if they don't see examples of it, they're afraid to step out of that comfort zone. https://www.lifefromthesummit.com/podcast/5 monthly 0.5 2024-04-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/37ac749e-9054-4ef0-a761-0784c1269fc0/Cover+art+full+episode+title.png Podcast - Ep. 5: Gen X Finances Unplugged: Values-Driven, Practical Wealth Strategies with Will Hoffman Money does one thing and one thing only . . . it gives us options.

been afforded to me my entire life, and the advantages I’ve had as a result. I also recognize and honor that the land on which I live and work, which is now known as the State of Colorado, is the unceded land of the Arapaho, Cheyenne, Ute, and Ochethi Sakowin. I honor the enslaved African peoples brought to, held, and sold on this land, as well as their descendants’ continuing struggle for liberation. I also honor the Asian ancestors from whom the mindfulness meditation practices that have transformed my life have come. I commit wholeheartedly to using the advantages I have been given to benefit and empower others, and to uphold the commitments in my Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion Statement. I live with my dog (Winnie) in Colorado, and my life is filled with climbing 14,000-foot mountains, rock-climbing, hiking, and road tripping. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/9c5893ad-a8cf-48a4-99b4-50dd5740b22b/Elk.jpg Meet Michele - What do you get with Life From The Summit that you can’t get elsewhere? There are a lot of coaches out there, a lot of meditation teachers, and a lot of talk about “mindfulness.” But there are very few people who have the powerful combination of being a Certified Professional Coach and Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher. This rare combination is my secret “beta” (rock climbing lingo for information about how to ascend a climb) for true, sustainable transformation.

Energy is constantly flowing through you and between you, others, and the world around you. Neuroscientists have mapped the electrochemical energy flowing through the brain, which activates our thoughts, emotions, and actions. Research shows that if you can raise your awareness of the energy behind your thoughts, emotions, and actions, you can learn what energy would be more supportive for you in any situation. The process for doing this is Core Energy CoachingTM. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/97fa0bd4-67fc-4da3-a88c-f46f5ecbc750/CORE+ENERGY+MASTER+GRAPHIC.png Core Energy Coaching Services - Master Core Energy Become aware of your Core Energy and how to master it for optimal leadership and life satisfaction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/d10107a7-9def-4810-85ae-03aaa3ad57f7/Hands.png Core Energy Coaching Services - Transform Learn transformative practices to create sustainable happiness and well-being on your path to success. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/cc85d76a-632b-4c65-a402-65eb9d681133/Light+bulb.png Core Energy Coaching Services - Raise Awareness Uncover your limiting thoughts and emotions that drive unsupportive choices and behaviors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eaf719bdfa0c03c1935278f/1607924905053-G7K2H5DFNR07COIS5DWE/Standing%2Bbetween%2Btrees%2Barms%2Bout.jpg Core Energy Coaching Services - Energy Leadership Index (ELI) Assessment: Whether at work, school, home, or church, you are a leader or have the potential to be a leader in one or more areas of your life.
