What motivates you?
Does pain and fear get your butt in gear, or is it joy and meaning and purpose?
Are ‘mess’ and ‘drama’ habitual patterns in your life?

If you are comfortable complaining and don’t get really ‘motivated’ until something breaks or is on fire - then you are familiar with the fear/pain/adrenaline loop. While it works to get where you want to go, it’s exhausting and it’s probably gotten old.

The adrenaline motivation loop takes a huge toll on our systems. Plus we end up in a cycle of internal fixation and procrastination so we can get to the adrenaline rush.

The alternative?
Being pulled forward by joy and purpose, it’s not only easier on our bodies, minds, and emotions, it feeds us and fosters growth and resilience.

In this week’s podcast Maren & Stephanie talk about making the shift from one way of being to the other, what it takes and the benefits for body, mind and spirit.

If you are interested in making that shift and are looking for support, join the Soulful Leader Podcast email list and get notified about our new, upcoming group program to help individuals connect with their deeper motivations and lead from the soul. (www.TSLP.life)
