Lyn talks to Wonder Wendy, a podcaster dedicated to providing open-source programming for the human mind, about the concept of "riding the next wave of life," particularly for women, emphasising the importance of resilience and adaptability in each phase.
Wendy shares her personal journey, including her experiences with marriage, motherhood, and the lessons learned from each chapter of her life, and discusses how challenges can lead to growth and self-discovery.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The concept of open source programming is likened to computer programming, where ideas and resources are shared freely to benefit others. This approach is applied to personal development, encouraging individuals to rewrite their mental programming to live a fulfilling life.
Life is like surfing, where individuals must learn to navigate both the high and the low waves. Embracing the natural cycles of life, including the inevitability of challenges, is essential for personal growth and resilience.
Encourage open discussions about mistakes and challenges, they should not be viewed negatively; instead, see them as opportunities for reflection and learning, that can nuture healthier mindsets and personal growth.
Recognising the need for personal space and alone time is crucial for maintaining a healthy relationship. Understanding our own needs can lead to better self-awareness and stronger connections with others.
BEST MOMENTS
"I just want to help people live better lives, what I call the wonderful bucket list life, and be the fullest person they can be, especially at this point in my life."
"If you make someone's life too easy, you don't let them fight a little bit; they don't develop the necessary strength they need to be their best self."
"The best way to ride the next wave is to both be alert and open. You need to position yourself so that you're ready for those challenges."
"I realised I need time alone... if I can't bring it all back in and shut down every so often, that's where I draw my energy."
