    49 - Acting on Aha Moments with GRIT and Grace
    Jan 4 2025
    Some aha moments can change the course of your day while other aha moments can change the course of your life. In this candid conversation, Lynn McLaughlin shares three life-altering aha moments that occurred in less than a decade. For each one, she provides experiential insights which may help individuals make different choices if they find themselves in similar situations. Her physical aha moment was the realization that the debilitating pain she had been ignoring for over a year was being caused by a brain tumor. Lynn assumed that her chronic suffering was due to her age and her stressful job as a Superintendent… until the morning she found herself alone in an ER waiting for a diagnosis. After surviving that harrowing experience, Lynn describes how emotional and mental aha moments sparked her decision to pursue a path dedicated to revealing The Power of Thought for children, youth and the people who support them.

    48 - Bewitched by GRIT

    How do you show up when it’s time to navigate competing priorities and there’s no clear answer but there is a clear deadline? That’s the context for this conversation with Megan Mary, a recently self-published Mystery Author and an established Dream Analyst. Maybe you’ve been pondering some of the same questions that she’s had to ask herself lately: Do I resist sharing my art because it’s not perfect or do I embrace my imperfection and share my work in the name of progress? Do I make art that’s sprinkled with my spirit or do I hold back and try to keep my essence out of my creations? Do I accept help from supportive individuals in my community or do I resist the offers of help because I want to do it all myself? When it comes to her GRIT, Megan Mary shares the inevitable tug of war between Grace and Intuition versus Research and Tenacity in the months leading up to the launch of her debut fiction novel, The Dream Haunters. Consider tuning in to hear how Megan Mary rose to the challenge!

    Candice Lee MacAulay is a Creativity Facilitator whose life and work are guided by four pillars: get it done, resolve to complete whatever you've started, bring high intensity to everything you do and don't be afraid to try then try then try again. Does her motto sound exhausting? Can you guess her four GRIT words? Candice slowed down long enough to share some insights and practical strategies that have helped her to stay motivated and accomplish her goals whether the focus is on writing, producing music, shifting mindsets, choosing wellness or inspiring other Creatives personally and professionally.

    Masterpiece Mario is a self-professed people pleaser, a proud information hoarder and a gifted Yoga Teacher even though he swore he’d never become a Yoga Teacher! In a record-setting 15 minutes, Mario opens up about his ongoing struggles with anxious thoughts and how his GRIT helps him tune them out. Being a “Yes” for himself has always been a challenge while being a “Yes” for others is a deeply-rooted calling in spite of the costs.

    In this extraordinary episode, Lena L takes us on a deep dive into the world of mental preparation that allows her to show up and stand tall in the face of challenges. For Lena, literally standing on a bed of nails is the most effective way to remind herself that her GRIT is all she needs when it’s time to navigate obstacles beyond the Sadhu board. Once the shock wears off, listeners will appreciate Lena’s ability to draw parallels between her experiences on the nail board and her experiences with some of the challenging situations that life has presented to her. Lena’s inspiring journey from novice to Sadhu Master reveals the incredible connection between our mental and physical states when we do hard things!

    What stops YOU from stepping into possibility? What’s your biggest fear about being seen? Since 2019, Danielle Joworski has been a disruptor who is dedicated to sharing #visibilitytruths and normalizing the journey from hiding and playing small to accelerating growth and impact. When Danielle finally put trust in herself, she shifted from a career that was the right fit because it was the logical choice to a career that is the right fit because it’s the intuitive and authentic choice (i.e., she gets to show up as her whole self every day). Danielle’s entrepreneurial journey has taken her from “I don’t know who I am” to “I have to trust that I can do this thing even though I’ve never done it before”. Her focus is on female entrepreneurs but her insights apply to anyone in the messy middle of showing up and being seen.
