TJ4: How to Create More Alignment in Your Life 045
#045 This is the fourth solo episode of the Transition Journey (TJ) series. Do you feel tied down by a career that doesn't resonate with your true self? What is the most valuable thing in your life? In this episode, we will listen to two previous guests who've broken free from traditional roles and found harmonious life alignment.
We get up close and personal with Meredith Castin, who traded her burnout as a physical therapist and started The Non-Clinical PT, and Lauren Schipper, who rolled the dice on a new adventure as an artisanal dice maker. Together, we'll explore the value of time and the art of intentional living that aligns with our authentic selves. We will break down, what they learned from their experiences and from their stories, how their experience applies to our lives, and how you can start your life alignment journey.
We will reflect on the inner conflict between your public and private identities and the importance of aligning your career with your core values. We all need to, unplug and, find ways to relax and unwind but paying attention to what fills us up and what drains us is a really simple guide to help us decide what and how to spend our time. Join me as we inspire each other to prioritize what matters most and courageously step towards our life by design, with the Rehab Rebels community by your side to cheer you on.

So I have a question for you: When was the last time you took time out of your busy schedule to spend on yourself? This episode is a deep exploration of loving yourself, mindfulness, meditation, affirmations, and mindset. The goal of this episode is for you to have both an understanding of why these topics are important to your life and to be able to start implementing them to develop a more personal relationship with yourself and the direction of your life.
Now, these practices have helped me on my journey and you may find some benefit in them as well. what we'll do is I'm gonna share some personal stories around these topics. We'll break down the definitions of each of these points and learn ways to implement these practices in our lives. We will explain the differences between fixed and growth mindsets with Carol Dweck as a reference on this topic, and uncover practical steps to adopt a perspective that celebrates every challenge as an opportunity.
