When Life Gets Hard — How to Find Your Wins Even on the Worst Weeks

from How Can I Make My Life Better? · host Charlene Adams

This week was a shit week. My ex avoided answering a direct question about my son's safety. The scales showed the wrong number. I re-recorded this episode after losing the first version when my laptop died. I sat with a bottle of dessert wine on my own on a Friday night and felt thoroughly fed up. And then I found my wins anyway.In this episode I share why acknowledging your wins — even tiny ones — is one of the most powerful retraining tools for your brain. How I went from venting on the phone to my mum and sister to sitting down and ticking off everything I actually achieved that week. And why showing up here, even on a bad day, is proof that I trust the process.TOOLS:Guided Meditation:https://www.patreon.com/posts/guided-for-focus-157836967?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_linkGuided Visualisation:https://www.patreon.com/posts/guided-aligning-150650632?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link5 day devotion to self-love - workbook:https://www.patreon.com/posts/5-day-devotion-151272035?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_linkSupport:Buy me a cuppa: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?business=E7L7PLZGX7ALU&no_recurring=0&item_name=Buy+Me+a+Cuppa¤cy_code=GBP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/soulandscissors/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@soulandscissorsPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/soulandscissors/membership#personaldevelopment #harddays #selfcompassion #wins #singlemum #healingjourney #mentalhealth #mindset #keepgoing#womenempowerment
