What does it mean to stay with yourself? Those are profound words with even more significant life implications. Staying with yourself involves personal integrity and self-respect. It means understanding and standing up for your beliefs and values and not yielding to the expectations of others. It’s a trueness that is raw, deep, and unquestionable.

But how does one do just that? I sat down with meditation teacher and coach Jessica Amos to talk about the ins and outs of self-discovery, staying with yourself, and leaning into the practices that feed you on every level, not just the one we show to the outside world.

You are a masterpiece of light, love, infinite beauty, and peace. This light is your energy, your soulful, most authentic self.

In this understanding, you can claim all that you are and honor your inner light that has helped you rise above darkness, hard times, and negativity. If you are not willing to give your very best, life is not going to offer much in return. Within each hour, day, week, and month, there is a time for everything. There is a time for letting go of self-destruction. There is a time for building and growing. There is a time for motion and rest. There is a time for wellness. There is always time for whatever is to be. That is if you make and take the time, and that begins with honoring your very being.

Feeling connected to yourself and the five master areas of your life is essential as it shows the value you place within yourself. With disconnected, there’s a tendency to lose sight of who you are, what you want, and most certainly what you need.

That’s why you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into what it means to feel disconnected, and we’re taking small steps to take the journey home to the self.

Let’s get right to it.

Today’s Mindset Reset leans into life lessons we gain as we age.

Many of us struggle with the concept of being good enough. But, what if you are already good enough? While you may reject that idea in its entirety, I sat down with therapist Lisa Tahir to chat about connecting with yourself and proving your mindset wrong when it questions your worth and right when you are in alignment of what you need and want!

Let’s get right to it…

In today’s Mindset Reset, Lauren from South Carolina wrote, “Danielle, I’ve heard you talk about breaking everything down into facts when you are going through a hard situation. I believe you said it’s important to ask questions to find the facts, but honestly, I’m struggling with the questions! Maybe that sounds dumb, but I don’t know what to ask. I can come up with facts, but even then sometimes I feel like they aren’t facts. They are opinions or how I feel about the situation. Can you help me with the questions to make the process easier?”

We all have ups and downs, and it’s no secret that life throws hard things into our path. After all, why do you think the saying, “Bad things happen to good people,” exists? Yet, when those hard things occur, how we connect to them and how we fix our mindset plays a significant role in the moment and our overall life satisfaction. It also impacts one other major element in our lives. Can you guess what it is?

If you guessed inner peace, you are right.

So, let’s take a one-on-one deep dive into our mindsets and whether or not you play the victim in your daily life. This is an extensive conversation about identifying the small daily behaviors and habits that create the biggest divide between feeling empowered and feeling negatively impacted, I’m handing over the signs that you are living in full victim mode, and of course, we’ll be talking about how to change course from victim to victor.

Let me ask you a question I’ve been chasing the answer to for most of my life. Is there such a thing as broken people, or are there only broken moments?

Your answer may vary from the truth depending on where you are in your life, what you’ve experienced, and how you’ve processed what has been and what you believe will continue to occur.

Today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into redefining the idea of broken, and I’ll hand over something most of us are not taught, which is how to become comfortable with being uncomfortable. This is one conversation that shatters our traditional thinking and flips what you thought you needed to move forward on
