207: Do you ever feel like you are way too zoomed in to your own drama to actually see a path forward? Imagine you're on a Google document and you just can't see the whole table but you need to see the whole table to do the equation. And then you zoom out. Suddenly you’ve got access to all of the tools you need and you’re ready to go. What if I told you it’s possible to apply this phenomena to your own life?I call it “The Snow Globe Effect” because, if you learn to observe your life from an aerial point of view (as if you’re peaking through a snow globe), you gain a whole new perspective.

Finally, I could feel my highest self looking down with pride.
