Embracing the Messy Middle
Shownotes Transcript
In the conversation, Julia and Brooke discuss the importance of starting small in life transformations, focusing on inner happiness instead of societal expectations. They cover Julia's personal journey from being unhappy and almost reaching a suicidal state, to making gradual changes and achieving a positive transformation. Julia shares the significance of small changes such as waking up and smiling, expressing gratitude for the simplest things in life, and connecting with oneself. She talks about the critical role that awareness and consistency play in building confidence and emphasizes that all this takes practice. They discuss the idea of life being a spiral, where one encounters and overcomes obstacles, learning and growing with each rotation.
