TLS #29 with Kristoffer Carter: Achieving Full Life Integration

Though every episode of The Lively Show is awesome, if I could only ask you to listen to one episode… THIS ONE IS IT. I’m talking with Kristoffer Carter, a father of three, intense meditator, full-time employee, multi-instrumentalist, coach, partner with Jonathan Fields, and force behind This Epic Life. We talk about how he achieves full life integration with everything on his plate. This show is about everything, applies to everyone, and is so good I hope you listen twice!  IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL FIND OUT ABOUT   How at 26-years-old, Kris was at a cubicle at work one minute, and the next was laying on an operating table almost losing his life. How Kris got radically honest with himself and his wife after almost dying. The Framework that Kris uses and teaches to help people achieve full life integration.  Virtues Vs. Values, how they are similar and how they differ. Kris’s current lens statement (and how it has evolved over the years). The Value and role of security and how it helps and hurts us in our lives and careers.  The difference between action and “right action.”  The meaning of sobriety in a buddhist sense and why Kris no longer drinks. How Kris created a company-wide mediation program. (~42:00) What we can do to incorporate our passions in our workplace. Kris’ recommendations for those who want to find a role or company they love working for. What Kris would tell someone just starting out on this journey.   SHOW NOTES   This Epic Life The Framework Manifesto (and workbook)  Uncertainty Jonathan Fields  Susan Piver The Gifts of Imperfection Centro Insight Timer App Good to GreatAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsJoin us in Welling, An online members club of 200+ inspired souls.
