Create Your Happy: Conscious Relationships with Others and Yourself Christy Holt - The Happiness Hussy

That problem that you have… it's not what you think it is. And you're not unhappy for the reasons that you think you are. 



Welcome back to another episode of the Create Your Happy podcast! In this episode, “You Don’t Have a Relationship Problem, You Have an Identity Problem,” we're exploring a profound topic: how your external problems are actually reflections of your internal identity.



Let’s dive into understanding the roots of your challenges and discover how embracing your true identity can transform your life. It’s time to get to the root of all of these “problems” so that you can see them more clearly for what they truly are! 



🔥 What You'll Discover in This Episode:




Seeing Internal Reflections: Learn how your external problems are really internal disconnections.


The Illusion of Suffering: Find out how resisting reality causes unnecessary suffering and how embracing what is can lead you to true peace.


Reclaiming Your Power: Discover how changing your thoughts, feelings, and reactions can help you reclaim your power and find genuine freedom.


Embracing All of You: Explore the importance of accepting all parts of yourself, flaws and all, to achieve wholeness and authenticity.





💡 Featured Quotes:



"You don't just face random problems. You're encountering an I-dentity problem."

"Our own self beliefs are actually what are causing us our own pain and suffering."

"When we claim our rightful power to change the world by reframing our thoughts, our feelings, and our reactions, we can finally find true freedom and peace."





Journal Prompts For Reflection:


To help you integrate these insights, here are the journaling prompts to explore.

Reflect on a current or recent problem in your life.

How might this situation actually be reflecting a part of your identity?

What is this problem teaching you about yourself?

Where might this problem be signaling an unmet need that you have?

How can you go about meeting that need for yourself?
