Jonah shares a powerful metaphor inspired by a dimming kitchen light that needed a new bulb. Over seven parts, he explores how gradual dimming in life goes unnoticed, why we normalize less-than-full clarity, and how calling for help and upgrading our “mental and emotional bulbs” can flood our lives with renewed vision and energy.
Episode Highlights:
•The slow fade: noticing gradual dimming in life before it becomes glaring.
•The false normal: how we adapt to dim light and call it “fine.”
•Grease and covers: the buildup of procrastination, excuses, and resistance that keeps us stuck.
•Calling maintenance: the courage and wisdom to ask for help to see clearly again.
•The new bulb: replacing old thoughts, habits, and perspectives with brighter, more effective ones.
•The flood of light: the clarity, energy, and emotional shift that comes with renewal.
•Living bright: embracing the full spectrum of life once visibility and understanding are restored.
Target Audience:
•Listeners feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their purpose.
•Those who need clarity in thinking, habits, or relationships.
•Anyone ready to transform subtle neglect or dimness into deliberate, energized living.
