Ep 197 - How to Reconnect With Your Soul's Innermost Longing with Shelley Paxton

Are you interested in taking charge of your life?  Have you been feeling like you're not living your purpose?  In this episode, we dive into discussing how we can be more authentic, pursue our life's calling, and really reconnect with our values and our SOUL. This week, I talk with Shelley Paxton, author, coach, and motivational speaker, about her book and her journey to become a Chief Soul Officer of her life. She joins us to discuss what S.O.U.L stands for and how it can help you do the deep work of reconnecting with yourself and your core values. We discuss how you sometimes need to take a leap to pursue your life's calling, and how during quarantine, you can actually improve your life and do some reflecting and thinking to make it better. This is one of my favorite episodes I've done, it's informational and so inspiring. Questions I asked: I saw you worked for Harley Davidson. Did you ride motorcycles? What was the F You Fund? How did you decide to pursue your life's calling? How do we stop "should"ing all over ourselves? How do we reconnect with ourselves? Why do people need to understand "if not now, when?" Why should we get rid of normal? How can we love our S.O.U.L more? What does S.O.U.L stand for? How do we step into that deeper integrity as you did? How can people get your book? How can people become the SOUL CEO of their life?   Topics Discussed: Rebuilding post-divorce. SOULbatical Using Quarantine to your advantage. Reconnecting with yourself If not now, when?
