    #50: Hard Times Aren’t Tests—They’re Truth Revealed

    So often when life gets hard, we tell ourselves, “I’m being tested.” But tests imply pass or fail, right or wrong—and that mindset only adds more stress, urgency, and pressure. What if the hard seasons weren’t tests at all, but mirrors? In this episode, we explore how challenges reflect back who you are in this moment—your habits, beliefs, and patterns. They aren’t punishments, they’re invitations: opportunities to pause, reflect, and ask, “Is this the person I want to keep being?” You’ll learn how to shift from reacting to becoming, and how the mirror can guide you toward the identity you truly want to step into. Instead of scrambling to “get it right,” you’ll discover how to use small, consistent choices (yes, those MDCs from Episode 4!) to transform who you are and how you handle life’s chaos. By the end, you’ll see that hard times aren’t here to judge you—they’re here to free you. When you stop trying to pass a test and start choosing who you want to become, everything changes: stress goes down, clarity rises, and you move forward with confidence, grace, and peace.

    #49: Life Can Be Messy

    Life is sometimes just messy. There isn’t a real rosy spin to put on the messy middle. When you know where you are going, but you are getting caught up in all the things that need to happen to get there, and the overwhelm sinks in and takes away some of that joy.  It’s not always pretty, but the hard parts have to happen to make anything a true success.  You get what you work for.  You can do it too.  Join my VIP Group at  https://ultimate180.com/contact/  Make sure to leave us a review on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ultimate-180/id1742888528   Make sure to leave us a review on Spotify:  https://open.spotify.com/show/39BZGcYdck7YzhTFBhjP6E  Connect with Kristina today:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourultimate180/  Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristina-walker-ultimate180/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ultimate180VIP   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theultimate180   Work With Kristina: https://ultimate180.com/

    #48: Thrive in Chaos

    In this episode, we go beyond the idea of joy as a concept—and show you how to make it a living, breathing practice in your everyday life. Happiness comes and goes. It’s reactive, fleeting, and tied to circumstances. But joy? Joy is a state. It’s steady, cultivated, and available to you even in the middle of grief, stress, or chaos. I’ll break down the difference between chasing happiness and embodying joy, and why one keeps you stuck in emotional highs and lows while the other anchors you in peace, purpose, and presence. You’ll learn practical ways to shift into the state of joy—like catching your “if only” thoughts, practicing stillness, and doing one thing each day purely because it lights you up. I’ll also share a powerful family mantra to help you reset your energy whenever you need it most. If you’ve been feeling like life is a constant rollercoaster, this episode will remind you that you don’t need more control—you need deeper connection. Joy is that connection. It’s not loud, it’s not fleeting—it’s the quiet home you can return to within yourself, no matter what’s happening around you.

    #47: Joy In The Void

    What if the simple children’s stories we read held profound wisdom for our grown-up lives? In this episode, I share a story that on the surface sounds like it was written for kids—but at its heart, it’s a reminder for all of us navigating the highs and lows of life. Because we’ve all been Joy, and we’ve all been Lynae. We’ve experienced the light, and we’ve walked through the void. And right now, if you turn on the news or simply look around, it can feel like the world itself is battling that void. But here’s the truth: you always have a choice in how you respond. Even in the midst of struggle, you can choose love. You can choose peace. You can choose joy—not as a fleeting emotion, but as a steady state of being that lives within you. In this conversation, I’ll share how to reconnect with that inner joy and introduce you to a simple family mantra that can become your new daily anchor: “Be kind to others and do what feels fun. Send loving thoughts out to each and every one.” This episode is an invitation to remember what you’ve always known deep down: joy isn’t something you outgrow, it’s something you reconnect with. Whether you’re navigating personal challenges, leading others through uncertainty, or simply craving more lightness in your days, this is your reminder that the path forward isn’t about fixing or forcing. It’s about coming home to the peace, play, and presence that have always been yours. Tune in, breathe deeply, and let this story guide you back to joy—even in the void.

    #46: Secret to Lasting Change

    Have you ever been all-in on a big life change—full of excitement, fresh groceries, new routines—only to lose momentum after a few days or weeks? You’re not alone. Most advice says to “find your why,” and while that’s important, there’s something even more powerful: reconnecting to joy. Not the fleeting emotion, but the steady state that becomes your inner compass, quiet accountability partner, and the fuel that keeps you moving forward. In this episode, we’ll explore: The difference between happiness (an emotion) and joy (a grounded state).Why losing sight of joy makes change feel like punishment—and how to shift that.How living from joy transforms goals from a “have to” into a “get to.”A simple practice to reconnect with joy, even on your busiest days.If you’ve been grinding toward change and feeling disconnected from the reason behind it, this conversation will help you realign, re-energize, and remember that joy isn’t the reward for change—it’s the reason you’re making it.

    #45: Is Money Blocking Your Vision?

    If you’ve ever caught yourself daydreaming about what you really want—only to immediately shut it down with, “But how would I afford that?”—this episode is for you. We’ve been conditioned to think about money first and clarity second, but what if that approach is keeping us stuck? In this episode, we explore why starting with money limits your vision, and how learning to get clear on what you want—without letting finances get in the way—is actually the first step to creating the life you crave. Inside the episode: 💡 Why Money Limits Your Vision When you lead with money, you shrink your desires to fit your current reality. We’ll talk about how to expand your thinking and dream beyond what seems “affordable” right now—because that’s where real creativity and growth happen. 💡 The Power of Clarity Clarity is one of the most underrated tools for transformation. We’ll walk you through a simple but powerful exercise: mapping out your ideal day with zero financial limitations. This helps train your brain to focus on what you truly want, not just what feels “realistic.” 💡 Staying Out of the ‘How’ Trap Once you're clear, it’s tempting to fall back into “but how will I pay for it?” mode. Learn how to stay in the feeling of already living your dream life—and how that feeling becomes a magnet for the people, resources, and money that bring it to life. Here’s the bottom line: If money is driving your vision, you’re letting scarcity take the lead—and scarcity will never create abundance. When you get clear first, opportunities follow. Tune in and learn how to shift from “How could I afford this?” to “What do I truly want?”—and let that clarity unlock everything.

    #43: Why Quitting Your Job Won’t Change Your Life – Until You Do This

    In today’s episode, Episode 43 Why Quitting Your Job Won’t Change Your Life – Until You Do This,  we’re digging into one of the biggest traps people fall into when they’re trying to change their lives: they switch jobs, start new routines, pick up the latest self-help book, or even sign up for therapy—yet they carry the exact same mindset and habits that got them stuck in the first place. If you feel like you’re doing all the right things but still ending up exhausted, overwhelmed, and no closer to the life you want—this episode is for you. We’ll break down why swapping your circumstances isn’t enough if you don’t shift your approach. You’ll learn how to: 1 Identify Your Default Mode: Are you a fixer, a hustler, a people-pleaser? Do you jump straight into “doing mode” every time you’re uncomfortable? Recognizing how you typically respond to stress and goals is the first step to breaking free from the loop. 2 Change Your Approach, Not Just Your Situation: If you leave an exhausting job but bring the same burnout habits with you, you’ll just end up exhausted somewhere else. Real change means asking: How can I do this differently this time?  3 Get Unstuck by Slowing Down: Most people repeat the same cycles because they’re moving too fast to notice them. The power of the pause is real—before you leap, pause. Reflect. What didn’t work last time? What patterns do you want to break? Remember: real transformation doesn’t come from more effort. It comes from different effort. So here’s the real question to take with you today: Are you truly changing—or just repeating an old pattern in a new setting? Because the next time you feel the urge to fix, hustle, or overcommit, that’s your moment to pause and choose differently. 🎧 Tune in now to learn how to stay connected to what’s next—no matter where you are now.
