177 - Healing vs. Becoming

from Daring Living Hosted by Shirley Huang

As a life coach of over 6 years, I share how I think about the difference between healing and becoming, why therapy and life coaching aren't actually in conflict with each other, and how to know what kind of support is right for the season of life you're in. If you've ever wondered whether you need therapy or life coaching, this episode is for you. We explore the role of healing past experiences, what it means to move from healing into thriving, and why the goal isn't just to process your past—but to become the person you want to be.

Tao Te Ching by Laozi (Author), Stephen Mitchell (Full Audiobook) Laozi Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is the classic manual on the art of living, and one of the wonders of the world. In eighty-one brief chapters, the Tao Te Ching looks at the basic predicament of being alive and gives advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit. This book is about wisdom in action. It teaches how to work for the good with the effortless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao (the basic principle of the universe) and applies equally to good government and sexual love; to child rearing, business, and ecology. Stephen Mitchell's bestselling version has been widely acclaimed as a gift to contemporary culture.
