Episode notes
Keep A Truth Tracker
- Keep a truth tracker for one week and record moments you acted out of expectation, not intention.
- Use the tracker to notice how often you say yes or perform life to others instead of choosing for yourself.
Shake Up The Snow Globe
- Introduce one small disruption into your routine every day this week to wake up awareness.
- You don't need dramatic changes; simple shifts like a new route or song will stir curiosity.
Flirt With Your Old Self
- Spend five minutes reconnecting with a past version of yourself using music or memory to borrow its energy.
- Use that spark to infuse motivation into current meetings, hobbies, or creative work.
