Episode 190- What Are You Avoiding?

Are you someone who tends to live in your head, always overthinking and analyzing? Or do you find yourself constantly swept up in your emotions, unable to see the bigger picture? Maybe you're the type who just stays busy, using action to avoid both thinking and feeling.

In this episode, we're exploring the idea that sometimes we can become "addicted" to one of these ways of being - thinking, feeling, or doing - as a way to avoid the others. I share insights from my coaching work, where I've noticed clients often fall into one of these camps. We discuss how this can happen as a protective mechanism, and why it's important to strive for more balance and integration of all aspects of our humanity.

The key is finding moderation - not perfection, but a "smoothie" of thoughts, feelings, and actions. I encourage you to reflect on what you might be avoiding, and experiment with adding more of the neglected element to your life. When we're willing to engage our minds, hearts, and bodies, we open ourselves up to a richer, more meaningful existence. Let's dive in!

As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.
