Episode #116: Relaunching Season 5 after a year off

from The Discomfort Practice · host Betsy Reed

In this episode, Betsy reflects on the question she's been pondering deeply: "The world is changing fast. Are you changing with it? Are you being the change you want to see in the world?" She explores how we can shift from being stuck in the narratives of fear and decline to consciously creating our own story and living a life that reflects joy, love, and curiosity. Betsy shares her own experiences with metaphysical study and coaching, offering both inspiration and relief for anyone struggling with the idea of "purpose." Instead of worrying about finding your one purpose, she encourages you to follow curiosity and love as your guides to becoming the change.
