70. Learn A Practical Tool to Do Hard Things & Live a Life of Meaning with Dr Diana Hill

Diana Hill, Ph.D. is a modern psychologist, mom, and co-author of ACT Daily Journal:Get unstuck and live fully with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She is the founder and host of the podcast show Your LIfe in Process and a co-founder of the Psychologists Off the Clock podcast, blogs for Psychology Today and offers regular teachings in compassion and ACT for clinicians and the general public. Through her online teachings, executive coaching, and private therapy practice Diana encourages clients to let go of unhealthy striving and build psychological flexibility so that they can live more meaningful and fulfilling lives. Diana practices what she preaches in her daily life as a mom of two, homesteader, and yoga teacher. I first learned about the work for Dr Diana Hill on her ‘From Thriving To Striving Summit’. I then worked through the ACT Daily Journal that Dr Diana Hill and Dr Debby Sorensen wrote, which is a 8-week program using the core processes in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help you deal with life’s challenges and live a happier and more fulfilling life.Diana has a way of explaining ACT in a simple and practical way so it was a real treat and honour to have her on the podcast to talk about how she ended up doing the work she does and explain a little bit about ACT.What I found most valuable was learning that living a values-based life and choosing what’s important for us can sometimes be scary. And that can be why we avoid it. But choosing to live a life of meaning requires us to do difficult things sometimes. ACT equips us with the tools  to do this and roll with life’s punches. This was such a rich episode with lots to take away, so listen today!Connect with Dr Diana Hill on: Her website and Download her free ‘6-Step ACT Daily Vision Board’ Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn @drdianahill
