"Thoughts are optional.” 

Ever feel like life is happening TO you? Or maybe you struggle with remaining productive while the rollercoaster of life gets a bit too wild? In this episode, Lena Elkins teaches us the process of how we naturally respond to our circumstances...Then, she digs into how we can break the cycle and change the results to suit our goals.

As a speaker, teacher and coach, Lena helps passionate people work through the mindset blocks so they can find solutions and achieve success. "Thought Work," in this case, looks like a five-step process that helps us uncover the why behind our emotional responses. Lena explains how adjusting our thoughts will allow us to alter how we experience any given situation.

Taking charge of our thought patterns is an empowering practice that saves us from remaining in a state of buffering. Lena reminds us not to let go of thoughts from a place of judgement, but rather to learn the skills required to "accept each thought for what it is, judgment-free." This way, we can more swiftly let it go and move forward.

Are you a multi-passionate person who longs to make an impact? Have you been focused on all the "shoulds" around you? Our latest guest, Sumi Krishnan, is a breath of fresh air who inspires us with her commitment to stepping into her highest self for her own wellbeing, and for the greater good.

After having reached massive success in business, Sumi found she still wasn't quite in alignment. Things felt off. She was living in the "should," and things weren't going to change until she asked herself the question, "What if I lived from a place I wanted to be?" Only then did she find a way to engage her three big passions: social change, music and business. 

Now, Sumi is living in alignment and feeling "FULLY ALIVE," which she mentions comes with all the feelings. She gets real, sharing, “and just because you’re on your aligned path, that doesn’t mean you won’t face challenges.” It isn't all sunshine and rainbows and we love her candor on living this aligned life.

Tune in and find out how following her highest excitement is leading to fulfillment she's never known before! 



Highlights: 

[8:15] - Focusing on your passion and what you really want. 

[11:45] - What it feels like living your aligned path. 

[19:15] - Finding alignment for all of your passions. 

[23:03] - Dealing with overwhelm. 

[24:46] - Sumi's #1 piece of advice.

Entrepreneurs and business leaders are goal-oriented people. Always striving for success, chasing the dream. But, what if you obtain the success, you’re living the dream, and it turns out it isn’t quite what you expected? What happens if you achieve your ultimate goal only to realize your “why” wasn’t as clearly defined as you’d thought?

Our guest experienced and overcame just that. She achieved her dream of running a successful business that allowed her to travel the world practicing her craft with the freedom of working for herself. Yet, when it came down to it, she didn’t feel fulfilled. She didn’t feel free.

Today’s guest is Brooke Genn, a retreat photographer and creative director. In this episode. Brooke talks about the realizations she made that allowed her to pivot from what she thought was her dream into a more fulfilling business, and life, in line with who she actually is. She tells us how she was able to create a sustainable passion-driven business and how knowing yourself, your habits, and your passions allows you to align your business to match YOU.

Highlights:

[4:29] - Reaching your ultimate goal and realizing you want something deeper.

[6:20] - Finding your deeper why.

[8:14] - Aligning your business, passions, and habits.

[12:59] - How to have a sustainable passion-driven business.

[14:34] - Responsible NOs.

Brooke Genn is an entrepreneur who’s not afraid to pivot. She’s run businesses from international wedding photography to copywriting and even a vintage boutique! Prone to spontaneity and likely to set sail on a moment’s notice, she always takes the road less traveled. She and her husband, Wilhelm, both work remote and have loved living the digital nomad dream, though they’re now choosing to create a season of slow travel and stillness. These two even live in a luxury solar-powered tiny home on wheels!
