Sometimes looking at our friends’ social media accounts can make us feel like we are watching an advertisement on television, making us believe if we had what that person had we would be happy and fulfilled. But often it is not what our friends are actually doing that is making us feel bad. Instead, our friends’ posts are just sparking a lack of direction or meaning in our own lives. If we take the time to figure out what is meaningful to us,... we can find direction and a reason to get out of bed in the morning. People find meaning in different places, including their work, a relationship, giving to others, or self-care; it just needs to be real. It needs to come from your inner self, and not from a place that just looks good to the outside world. When you find what is meaningful in your life, you will find it long lasting and satisfying, and it will bring a fullness to your life that is sustainable. With a life full of meaning, MAYBE the best is yet to come!
Always wanting more can prevent us from fully enjoying our lives today because we always think we have tomorrow.

Every parent wants their children to flourish, but the fear that they won't or that things won't work out in their future can consume much of our day-to-day inner dialogue. The mindset of Maybe enables us to parent with less worry and more ease as we recognize that our children’s lives often are not determined by one moment and Maybe everything is or is going to be okay.
When we don't feel okay about ourselves everything that happens in the outside world defines how we feel about ourselves in our inside world. How can we alleviate this pain of feeling not valuable and stay on our path to achieve the things we want in life? You might want to consider that Maybe there is nothing wrong with you!
Some people think hope is the root of our suffering and others believe that hope keeps people inspired and moving forward. I believe most of us would find it difficult to get through the day without hope. Every business, every investment, every first date, and every other situation we embark on has hope packed into it. As a result, holding hope for the new year is the perfect mindset, as long as we remain flexible and fluid in the face of cha...nge and uncertainty. Life can take many different paths and each one is filled with potential to meet our objectives. Hope is the beginning of garnering all that's possible to improve our lives and make the world a better place for everyone.
Acceptance is a difficult issue for many people because it is about tolerating or making peace with something in our lives that we don't like or that causes us pain. But the key to less suffering and possibly finding a solution is to stop holding on to the way things were before our problem occurred or to stop holding on to the thought that things should have worked out differently. Resisting the flow of life will only makes us stressed and u...nhappy. It takes courage to accept life the way it is, but it is the beginning to finding peace and MAYBE even making our situation better.
One of the key reasons we suffer is because we often believe that this moment is not enough. We might have a problem we want to solve or a goal we want to achieve and we believe if we can just get through this period or reach this achievement then we can rest, smile and enjoy the fruits of our labor. But what if, by focusing on the one thing that will bring us future happiness, we are creating tremendous suffering in our lives? Listen to thi...s podcast to learn how to embrace this moment as enough, still pursue your dreams and experience a true path to peace and joy.
Since my first podcast launched a few weeks ago, I have received many emails from people discussing their anxieties and worries about current events. Their concerns included fear of more mass shootings, losing their healthcare, or possible war with North Korea. Many of us can understand how these people feel and many of us have similar concerns. These types of events can make us feel vulnerable and it can be difficult to calm our fears and worr...ies when we are bombarded constantly with upsetting news. In response to these emails, episode 4 addresses how we can alleviate our fears about these and other world events by embracing uncertainty as a place of hope and refuge.
