How do you know you're living the right dream? When is it okay to stop living a life you were told to want? Why does life gift us chaos?

In this episode, I invite my email subscribers to consider starting a new tradition this year instead of choosing the typical "new year, new me" mantra. This year, consider getting into the arena to sit with your fears, heartbreak, and disappointments and grieve your losses. This is the year you handle your sh*t and become the honest version of yourself that expresses your feelings and confesses your needs.

If you are ready to become a Gladiator--again, the cute kind that looks like Olivia Pope in Cashmere--listen to this episode and get ready to take control of your life.

Things I mention in this episode: Quotes from Dr. Edith Eger in The Gift: 14 Lessons to Save Your Life. "Freedom is a lifetime practice." and "We can be wounded and accountable." Excerpt from A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas. Referenced JP Saxe song "The Good Parts"

I have no rights to the audio in the intro and outro; its use is only for education. This audio includes: “Lotus Pond” song by Aakash Gandhi; a compilation of Maya Angelou interviews (The Paris Review as The Art of Fiction №119⁠ and Bill Moyers Journal, 1973); Midge’s Late Night TV Set Finale from the film ⁠The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel written and directed by Amy Sherman-Palladino and produced by Amazon Studios, Dorothy Parker Drank Here Productions, and Picrow.

Poll Question: Are you satisfied with your life today?
