Ep: 186 Live Coaching Session: Is Society's Path the Right Path?

What happens when you don't follow society's expected relationship timeline? In this live coaching session episode, we talk about what it looks like to navigate walking a non-traditional path and taking the road less traveled. Alana opens up about her transformative decisions—whether it's breaking off a long-term relationship, returning to graduate school, or challenging societal norms around marriage and family.

🌟 What You'll Gain From This Episode:

• Empowering Choices: How Alana took charge of her destiny by ending a significant relationship and opting for further education. Learn the dynamics of making such monumental life choices and the freedom that comes from it.
• Non-Traditional Paths: Feel seen as Alana delves into the loneliness and isolation of choosing a route divergent from her peers—no marriage or kids (yet), but plenty of individual growth.
• Surrendering to Life: Vanessa and Dené highlight the underestimated power of surrendering to the unknown and embracing life's uncertainties. Get insights into letting go and gaining more in return.
• Culture & Self-Exploration: Listen in as they dissect the shortcomings of American culture's collective immaturity and the loss of cultural identity through assimilation.
• Embodied Spirituality: How can spirituality become a lived experience? We talk about connecting with higher powers in day-to-day life, not just in sacred spaces.
• Defining Stability: Is settling down always the right choice? Challenge your preconceptions as Alana questions the conventional wisdom around long-term relationships and societal 'stability.'
