Radical Responsibility For Your Peace (And Why It's Always Worth It)

Recently, while coaching, a pattern started to show up. The moms I talked to felt stuck, frustrated, or exhausted.

They were waiting on someone else to do something different so they could finally feel better.

And I kept finding myself thinking: You're giving all your power away!

Not in judgement, but in love. Because I've done it too.

When peace feels out of reach, it's almost always because we're outsourcing it.

We believe it depends on our kids' moods, our partner's habits, or someone else's approval. We're hoping someone else will say the right thing, change their behavior, make it easier.

But the truth is, peace doesn't come from other people getting it right. It comes when we take radical responsibility for how we think, feel and show up.

In this episode, I'm sharing:

  • What radical responsibliity really looks like in marriage, motherhood and more
  • How to recognize when you're stuck in blame mode
  • Simple ways to take your power back, without pretending everything is fine

And if taking radical respoinsibility feels like a lot, just start small. Notice one story where you're waiting on someone else to make you feel better. Then ask: What's one way I can take my power back in this moment?

That's where peace begins.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
