438: A conversation about a helpful mindset tool

Hello friends! It's the second Thursday of the month and that means a great conversation with friend and and now-former colleague Andrew Moss regarding the tools that we developed together as I was training to solo hike across northern England in 2023.This one's about the tool that is really behind all the other tools: “I am not my thoughts.”In today's conversation you'll hear about how this idea has shaped each of our lives and how differently it has shown up for each of us. Andrew and I also each give you a way to try it out if you'd like!About the Series… It's really a podcast within a podcast!In these "Waking up: The Tools” conversations Andrew and I discuss the essential tools we developed that helped me transform my experience and grow into the person who hiked all by myself across northern England in 2023… After needing a wheelchair to go more than a few steps in 2011.FYI My hike was taking place exactly 2 years ago right now! To celebrate I am reading from my memoir, Waking Up, throughout May in a series of Instagram lives which you can access here.We've called this series Waking up: The Tools because they’re featured in my book, Waking Up: How I Grew to Love My Body and My Self While Solo-Hiking Across Northern England (available everywhere you get your audiobooks and Amazon in paperback and e-book format.)Each Waking Up Tools Conversation is hosted by Pathfinders, the amazing platform that exists to amplify good people doing good work in the world.
