60. Diane Forster: How To Live Like It’s Your Last Day

“I have learned and I teach that the only opinion that matters is mine. The only opinion about you that matters is yours.”

Diane Forster’s rock bottom moment happened in the bathroom of her family home when she decided to take her own life.

To the outside world, Diane seemed to have it all. She had the relationship and the successful corporate career, but inside she felt empty. Eventually, she reached the point when she couldn’t take it anymore. Then Diane felt her late mother’s presence and heard her voice telling her to put the pills down and get help - so she could help others.

Turns out your breaking point can be the most beautiful gift because from this peak emotional experience arises fresh opportunities.

In that moment, life changed. Diane’s mother died when she was just 53, but here she was providing guidance when Diane needed it most. What came next for Diane was a journey back to herself.

A journey of forgiveness, of compassion, and of reinvention to the point where Diane now helps others to live intentional, inspired, passionate lives - every single day.

So get ready to dive in and discover the tools, mindsets, and beliefs that will enable you to move beyond rock bottom and create an extraordinary life for yourself. 

“Not forgiving is so debilitating. Carrying around anger, resentment, shame, guilt — any of those negative emotions — will literally eat away at you.”

Diane Forster is an incredible woman who radiates joy and passion for the work she does.

She is an Award-Winning Inventor, Best Selling Author, TEDx Speaker, TV Host, Podcaster, Intentional Living Expert and Re-Invention Specialist. Diane is also the CEO and Founder of I HAVE TODAY - A book, TV Show, and platform that helps women live enriched, empowered, inspiring lives through their transitions, to reinvent themselves.

I loved this conversation because we covered it all. We explore the power of forgiveness and how there are three stages you need to move through. We speak about the way we’re all supported and guided by a higher consciousness. We also discuss what it takes to be get inspired and how you can turn insights into momentum to drive you into to the life you want.

We talk about creativity, meditation, and the power of self-acceptance along with judgement, why we never feel enough, and the importance of looking out for signs.

In short, we dance through it all!

You’ll find that Diane’s philosophy on life is just beautiful - I promise she’s going to inspire you.

She’s an advocate for the idea that all you have is today.

And because of that, Diane lives intentionally with a commitment to make every day different, special, and extraordinary.

We can all live out our lives like Diane.

We can all tap into the resourcefulness and curiosity within to discover who we really are and what we want to do. We all have the power to create, expand, and grow so we can enjoy everything life has to offer.

So if you want a kick-start to a life you love, this episode is a no-brainer. It will leave you inspired, empowered, and motivated to grab every moment and live it as fully as you can.

“Nothing is ever happening to you — it’s happening for you. Even the pain is there to teach you something.”
