Hello, hi and welcome to another episode of Medium Lady Talks! In Episode 97, we're delving into a topic that's close to the hearts of many burnt-out millennial mothers: the pursuit of genuine enjoyment in life. - We'll explore three perspectives: "no," "maybe," and "yes," as we navigate the journey towards authenticity and happiness. - I've announced a new waitlist for 1:1 Gratitude Coaching make sure to sign up for announcements using this link!

Segment 1: Exploring the "No" Perspective - Some of us prioritize being right over being happy, but what if we challenged that mindset? - Let's consider whether the belief "that's just the way it is" is serving us or holding us back. - Choosing happiness over being right can lead to growth and fulfillment in unexpected ways.

Segment 2: Unpacking the "Maybe" Perspective - For many of us, the idea of enjoying life comes with conditions and complexities. - Are we willing to go out of our way to help others enjoy life, but hesitant to do the same for ourselves? - In the episode we explore the temporary nature of seeking goodness and how it impacts our pursuit of happiness.

Segment 3: Embracing the "Yes" Perspective - It's time to fully embrace the possibility of enjoying life, even if we're unsure where to start. - Consider practical steps, like practicing gratitude or setting boundaries, to cultivate a more enjoyable life. - If you find yourself answering YES to the question make sure you join my waitlist for gratitude coaching, designed to provide relief and support in a short period of time.
