Powered by Resiliency: Your Inner Bliss
There’s no magic pill, daily ritual, or any amount of money that will bring true, sustained inner bliss. Listen in and learn the art of present moment living so you can tap into your innate sense of happiness. It’s waiting for you!
How happy are you, really?
Take one walk through the bestseller section of the bookstore, and it’s easy to see that the pursuit of happiness is a popular topic!
It’s true - happiness and inner peace is something that all of us want, but it seems to be elusive to many.
There seems to be no “secret” to achieving true happiness - there’s no magic pill, no daily ritual, no amount of money, or anything else that will guarantee a fulfilling experience here on earth.
But what if someone told you, that you could be happy no matter what?
Regardless of what we are led to believe, our experience of life is largely dependent upon our interpretation of life’s events. That means, that no matter what happens, it is how we choose to see the ins and outs of our life journey.
It is through the practice of present moment living that we begin to slow down our knee-jerk reactions to what life brings our way. It is in the heart of mindfulness that we reach clarity, and are finally able to choose how we experience our walk here on the planet.

Reinvent Your Life Series: Reclaim Your Identity
Finding our way through change isn’t about adopting a new persona. Rather, it’s about learning to inhabit your true self and stepping into your new chapter, healed and fully whole.
As our former life dies, so do we.
You may be familiar with the term “identity crisis”, which refers to when one’s sense of self is challenged.
Although the expression has been minimized through mainstream media, the truth is that many of us will experience reincarnations or rebirths of our sense of self throughout our lives. And it’s not bad. It’s not wrong. It’s growth.
Undergoing massive change or trauma can all cause us to question our sense of self-identity. For example: following the loss of a partner, an individual may question who they are without their loved one.
Once we recognize that we are actually the creators of our self-identity empowers us to embrace the pause between places - so we can dive deep and reclaim our new sense of self.
So how do you find out who you truly are, now?
It’s not about adopting a new persona and playing a role. Reclaiming your self-identity is about dropping all assumptions about who you were and who you should be now and aligning with your truest self in its divine form.
Listen in to today’s episode of the Reinvent Your Life series to learn:
How to feel whole again
How to challenge self-imposed labels on who you are
How to step confidently into your new chapter of life as YOU
Although the process of reclaiming your self-identity requires mindful attention, it’s always a worthy pursuit. Because when you are in the expression of your truest self, you begin to live whole; fully healed.
As Ralph Ellison so wisely said, “When I discover who I am, I’ll be free.”
