Ep 139: Finding your Moxie

from Bloom Your Mind · host Marie McDonald

With a cup of melted ice cream in my hand, I waited for a group of kids to explore a book store, staring in the window at the best sellers. That was the day I found an author whose prose gave me a week of  both mind-swooning entertainment and a jolting moment of reflection. She wrote about giving our time and energy to things that fill us with passion and motivation. That fill our minds the moment we open our eyes in the morning, and fill our souls with purpose and life. Everything I’ve created in the last five years of thought leadership is about this idea. I’ve created podcasts and books, programs and coaching groups to helping people find where and how their passion can take form. We all want to find it. So why do we so often find ourselves pulled off track by the passion and motivation of others? If you’ve ever found yourself working too hard at a job or in a volunteer position, giving too much to the family or relationships that you serve, this episode is for you. Things you’ll learn in this episode: The one most common thing that makes people spin their wheels instead of getting into actionThe difference between working toward your passion, and giving time and energy too someone else’s passionWhy it feels so good to support people when their idea is inspired and their vision is full of intent and energyHow to intentionally choose to support someone else’s idea, and find your own vision inside of itHow to know when the time you’ve spent working toward someone else’s idea has come to a closeWhy the world needs feminine ideas and feminine leadership more than ever beforeTwo questions to ask yourself to help uncover the whispers of your own ideas, and how to know when you’re giving too much time and energy too something outside of yourselfMentioned in this podcast:Taylor Jenkins Reid: Daisy Jones and the SixTaylor Jenkins Reid: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn HugoHow to connect with Marie:On the Web | The Local BloomInstagram: @the.bloom.coachAll Things Marie on LinkTreeJOIN THE BLOOM ROOM!We'll take all these ideas and apply them to our lives.
