    We Are Too Harsh on Ourselves | Jason Kung

    Today’s vulnerable conversation features many great topics of ambition and compassion for oneself. I sit down with Jason Kung, a close member of the Highest Version community, to discuss what he has learned about constantly striving for something but realizing that right now may not be the right time. We can always be ambitious but is that what is important for our lives in the moment? Jason opens up about the difficulties of finding a healthy balance of striving who you want to be and how you’re going to achieve it. We also sit down to discuss: • Bringing your “village” with you in your success • How we build our narratives and the “why’s” behind it is important for our self-worth • Failures are hard to deal with but we just need to learn from it and not take it too seriously to where that is our only focus Tune into this vulnerable conversation to help YOU become the highest version of yourself!

    The Power of “Why?”| Reflections of June

    Turning 27 this year has made me reflect on just all the experiences that have happened to me recently. From dealing with depression and anxiety to gaining the right tools to help me combat those thoughts by going to therapy. With another month down, you know we had to go through the lessons I was able to learn! I think we can all agree that we are own harshest critics. The cognitive distortions we have that alter our reality and telling us that we are not good enough is what leads us to a path of poor mental health. But when you realize what those distortions are, you are able to look at the facts to understand how your brain works and why it hinders your self-worth so much. We also dive deep into the power of “Why?” and why that question can lead us to a more truthful path and fulfilling our own needs and wants. Lastly, we dive into how discipline will always beat motivation because motivation has a scarcity while discipline could last forever. I hope you guys are able to resonate or learn something from this episode and use it to become the highest version of yourselves!   Chapters:  0:00 – Episode Highlight  0:39 – Episode Intro 1:35 – Lesson #1: We Are Our Own Harshest Critics 7:16 – Lesson #2: Ask Yourself Why? 16:47 – Lesson #3: Discipline Beats Motivation 21:59 – Wins of June  Socials: Highest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion  Intro Music:  The Epic Hero – Keys of Moon Music

    It’s All About Perspective | Ellie Ringpis

    We welcome a new guest to the Highest Version community, Ellie Ringpis! Ellie truly has a “child-like” outlook on life by viewing even the smallest of things as one of the most amazing things in life. She really teaches about how important perspective can shape our mental health and how it can actually improve it. As we get older, we lose this sense of “play” and “awe” we had when we were children. But Ellie proves to us that even as adults, you don’t have to assume the identity of a Disney adult to have child-like awe and make life a lot more interesting! If you feel stuck or feel like your life feels boring, this is the episode for you! Chapters:  0:00 – Episode Highlight  0:42 – Episode Intro 2:23 – Mental Health Check-In 4:30 – Featured Funko Pop 12:35 – Backstory 18:31 - What Makes Us Lose our “Play” in Life? 37:42 – Using “Play” to Get Through Difficult Times 50:58 – How Can We Allow More “Play” Into Our Life? 1:06:04 – Flowers to Guest 1:07:08 – Connecting with Different Generations 1:08:44 – Big 3 Questions Socials: Highest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion Ellie’s Family IG: https://www.instagram.com/rbigadventures/  Intro Music:  The Epic Hero – Keys of Moon Music Great Days – Joakim Karud

    CHOOSE ME LOVE ME | Reflections of May

    I’m back at it again with another monthly update on how I am continuing to become the highest version of myself each and every single day. I dive into realizing that striving to be good or the best at everything you do in life is SUPER exhausting. There’s power in just doing and enjoying something that gives you joy. I, also, touch upon people-pleasing tendencies and how that results in choosing safety over authenticity. We make these decisions because we don’t want that other person to not like us or negative feelings towards us. But by doing that we are not living our own story and creating a passageway for others to cross our boundaries that keep us in peace. Lastly, I touch on the sensitive subject of our relationship with failure and how a love reality TV show made me rethink my own relationship with it. More lessons and more XP gained, I love it! Chapters:  0:00 – Episode Highlight  0:36 – Episode Intro 1:20 – Lesson #1: You Don’t Have to Be Good at Everything 6:32 – Lesson #2: Choose Authenticity Always 11:01 – Lesson #3: What’s Your Relationship with Failure? 14:19 – Wins of the Month 19:57 - Conclusion  Socials: Highest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion  Intro Music:  The Epic Hero – Keys of Moon Music

    We Often Suffer In Our Imagination

    “We often suffer more in our imagination than our reality.” Wow, what a powerful quote. This speaks volumes to many mental health scenarios including: thinking about what-ifs, playing scenarios in your head about failing situations when that hasn’t even happened yet, assumptions about how people think of you, etc.! Something I wish I knew sooner in life because that would have kept my confidence high and probably would have helped me learn how to deal with rejection for my future! Been loving this format to speak to you guys on how I am becoming the highest version of yourself and here’s what I have for you today! ·      1 thing that has helped me become the highest version of myself: vulnerability and putting myself out there ·      1 thing that I am progressing toward to become the highest version of myself: healing from shame ·      1 thing that I wish I knew sooner: “We often suffer in our imagination more than our reality” Chapters:  0:00 – Episode Highlight  0:27 – Episode Intro 1:30 – Putting Yourself Out There + Being Vulnerable 8:37 – Shame is Powerful 13:46 – We Often Suffer in Our Imagination     Highest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion  Intro Music:  The Epic Hero – Keys of Moon Music
