102. Unlock Your Hidden Power: Mindset Shifts to Improve Well-Being and Take Control of Life’s Challenges

You can improve well-being by shifting focus to controllable aspects of your life. 

 

What if what you are trying to control right now is actually out of your control? 

 

Think about a time when you tried to control something that was out of your control. How did that feel emotionally and in your body? 

 

In this episode, we dive into the surprising ways you may have more influence over your life than you realize. We’ll explore how shifting your focus to the things you can actively shape, rather than getting caught up in what’s beyond your reach, can lead to a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Maria, Elizabeth and Tara, the healing trio, share personal insights and practical tools while navigating the fine line between what we can influence and what we need to release. 

 

From dealing with unpredictability to the bigger challenges like managing our emotions and external expectations, we break down what it really means to focus on what’s within our power. Whether it's controlling your diet, body shape, or other people's behavior (hint: you can’t), this episode will guide you to refocus your energy on what really matters. 

 

In this episode:

• Understanding what’s in your control vs. what isn’t.
• The “Post-It Note” tool for prioritizing and differentiating between what you can and can’t control.
• Can you control your emotions? Hint: No!
• What do emotions and farts have in common?
• How letting go of outcomes can lead to greater peace and wellbeing.
• The emotional toll of trying to control things beyond your reach.
• A simple and powerful tool for organizing and prioritizing your current life challenges.
