EP114: From Stuck to Unstoppable

from Closing The 18 Inch Gap Podcast · host Edwin Soler

In today's episode I want to continue my conversation on mental and emotional health.  I was interviewed on someone else's platform for the second time in less than a week.  It was a very special time as the interviewer is someone I have known for a long time. We spoke more than anything about the inner being and some of my story. So, this inspired me to go deeper this week on the journey of emotions many of you, my listeners, may be going through.  It's about being stuck in your minds and hearts which creates what I call the 18-inch gap that can be so challenging to close.  I want to share with you one of the things that really freed me to start my journey to where I am at today.  How I went From Stuck to Unstoppable.  And the final release started at my mother's death bed.  Quote of the week: "So many people will tell you 'no', and you need to find something you believe in so hard that you just smile and tell them 'watch me'." — Michael Bassey Johnson   Here is a small sample of what I share in this episode:   Some of the deepest pain came from trusting people I would have defended without hesitation. Betrayal forced me to see the difference between attachment and genuine connection.  I learned that boundaries are not walls—they are protection.  Some endings felt like destruction, but they were really redirection. I learned that forgiveness does not always require reconciliation.  Some chapters ended without closure, and I had to create my own peace. I learned to stop taking another person's liking me as a measure of my worth. I realized closure sometimes comes from understanding, not explanation.  After everything I lost, I finally found the person I was meant to become: myself And much more.    These are lessons that when  learned and applied will make such a huge difference in moving forward. Too often our judgment gets clouded by our emotions and life has a way of bringing about ways of showing us how much greatnes we have inside that can not be drowned out no matter what has happenned. Key characteristics of unstoppable people: Resilience: Rejection is simply motivation to prove people wrong. Action: Keep moving forward regardless of speed. Mindset: Deciding that you will never give up. Purpose: Finding a fire in your heart and keeping it lit.
