    Midlife Remix: How The YES Life Became a Path to Reinvention

    After years of heartbreak, plot twists, and a midlife reset, I realized I had two choices: wait for life to change… or start saying YES to myself. In this comeback episode, I share the story of how a road trip to the Tybee Running Festival with my dogs turned a four-day getaway into nearly four weeks of adventure — and how that journey sparked what I now call the YES Life. You’ll hear the backstory behind this podcast’s new name, Postcards from the YES Life, and why midlife isn’t a crisis — it’s a remix. We’ll talk about stacking small YESes, the power of Main Character Energy, and how to begin creating joy and momentum right where you are. If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect time” to start living boldly, this episode will remind you: the best chapters of your story are still ahead.   RESOURCES: Like what you hear and want to start living your own YES Life?

    Maybe You Should Give Up: Interview with Author Byron Morrison

    Have you ever felt like you’re your own worst enemy? The feeling of being trapped in a cycle of self-sabotage can have profound effects on our lives. It not only hinders our progress towards the life we desire, but it also impacts our overall well-being and happiness. Today’s guest  sabotaged everything from his health to his relationships and his professional success. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to change, if anything, he knew exactly what he needed to do to create the life he wanted. Yet he’d get stuck in a never-ending cycle of making some progress, only to then lose motivation, fall off track or do something that would undo all his hard work. Eventually, he had enough, and he committed to figuring out what was actually going on. In doing so, he discovered that the biggest barrier in the way of his success…was himself.  Byron Morrison is the author of the book "Maybe You Should Give Up" as well as a mindset and performance coach who has helped people in 15 countries to take control of their life. Maybe You Should Give Up - 7 Ways to Get Out of Your Own Way and Take Control of Your Life is available anywhere you can order books.   Connect with Byron: www.byronmorrison.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/authorbyronmorrison/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/authorbyronmorrison Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorbyronmorrison   Connect with Kim: Instagram at Iris Digital Media Group Instagram for Dream Building and Podcast Home Instagram for The Digital Dreamer Podcast Facebook page The Digital Dreamer Podcast Apple.   Spotify iHeart Create an Income Generating Audio Product: https://www.irisdigitalmediagroup.com/audioproduct Expressions by Iris store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/IrisDigitalMedia Start your journey as an Amazon Influencer: https://www.irisdigitalmediagroup.com/influencer Join Kim's Podcast Coaching Group: https://www.irisdigitalmediagroup.com/coach
