In episode 129 of 'Beyond the High Road' podcast, Shelby discusses the emotional challenges faced by alienated parents and those experiencing grief. She reflects on the importance of engaging in hobbies like plant care that cultivate patience and dedication. She emphasizes the power of shifting one's mindset from merely surviving to thriving, even during the grief of alienation. Drawing from personal anecdotes and client experiences, Shelby encourages listeners to actively shape a fulfilling future rather than settling for mediocrity or avoiding pain. She argues that embracing growth and finding deeper meaning in life can ultimately lead to post-traumatic growth and a more enriched life experience. The episode also touches on the biological implications of prolonged isolation and the importance of loving oneself to break out of negative emotional cycles. Shelby concludes with a call to embrace opportunities for joy and not resign to a life of low-grade suffering.
