S5E9 Finding Happiness with Cecilia Hendrix

Are you sleepwalking through life? Do you allow yourself to feel completely alive and joyful? If not, what needs to change? And how do you change it? Join Amanda and her guest, Cecilia Hendrix, human experience speaker, host of Unleashing Happiness podcast, and consciousness explorer, for a laid-back conversation about how tapping into your power and creating small habits in the moment adds up to big change. The two friends also discuss: 🔥 How to break the monotony of life by introducing minor "interruptions" to your day 🔥 Ditching the idea that once you achieve x, y, or z, then you will be happy—live now! 🔥 A new definition of happiness that involves embracing the reality that life isn't always going to be great 🔥 Anger is a human emotion that should not be shamed, and how it motivates change, personally & collectively 🔥 Things work out better for people who identify as lucky rather than unlucky 🔥 Nothing stays the same--if you are in a bad place, things will be good again 🔥 Not needing to "force think" your way into a new way of being; allowing something greater to do the heavy lifting for you 🔥 Regulating the nervous system makes space for better choices to exist Follow Cecilia on Instagram & LinkedIn Visit Cecilia's website to learn how to work with her and dates of upcoming speaking gigs Cecilia Hendrix is a human experience speaker, host of Unleashing Happiness podcast, and consciousness explorer who believes most of us are sleepwalking through life - functioning but not really experiencing. After a corporate layoff in 2024 became an unexpected catalyst, she took the leap to do the work she was always meant to do: helping people truly feel alive.  She connects science and spirituality to explore how identity, emotion, and consciousness shape the way we experience our lives - approaching all of it with whimsy, self-compassion, and just enough logic to keep it grounded. She's also a mom, loves the outdoors, and will absolutely ask to pet your dog. *Email your thoughts about this show or if you have an idea for another show to [email protected] *Please follow, share, and leave a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review Sol Rising is also on YouTube.
