Security, stability, foundation. It’s time we start thinking about them differently. If we started looking at them as something that we can ultimately create for ourselves, then everything shifts. In this episode I explain a few ways that you can shift things in the way you’re building or operating so that your stability is connected to YOU. It’s not contingent on anyone else.   That’s a powerful move, ya’ll.   Let’s dive into this and you’ll see what I mean.

The gift of self-awareness. It started with the question of “what the hell IS self awareness anyway?” after I heard one of my favorite speakers mention it in a keynote speech. It started me down a path that I’m still actively traveling 4 years later.    One that I believe has been one of the most rewarding rabbit holes I’ve ever dove down. And I dove head first. In this episode I go deep-deep into the details of this moment and how it’s altered everything since. I also give ways that you can discover this in yourself too!

New year- new me   Ha. Nope. That’s not how it works. We all know that 9 times out of 10, resolutions don’t stick.    In this episode I go into the depth of why they don’t work and how we’re so programmed/pressured to create them so we do it anyway.    I believe in setting a theme for the year that blankets over the months to come so every action you take is connected by that core desire or way you want to show up.    I wanted to give some examples of ways you can incorporate this into your thought process as we’re shifting from one year to the next. I also explain why reflection is the key component to any good goal or mission.    Mentioned in this episode: Episode 25; Why we practice  https://lifestylecreation.podbean.com/e/025-why-we-practice/ Start this year different; www.jamiethurber.com/ny

Output vs. Input Consume vs. Create High Producer AND Self-care?    I know now a lot of people believe that it is not possible to have a work-life balance OR feel as if you’re actually handling all of the things in your life, business, job, family, health, etc. at the same time without going insane or being stressed to the max. I’m here to tell you that it IS in fact, possible.    This conversation went a bit in a different direction than I originally anticipated (which are the best kinds usually). So, jump in for some perspectives, a way to stop thinking you’re never doing enough, and some serious outlook on mapping out your responsibilities that you can start doing right now to start braiding balance into your life too.    Mentioned in this episode: Intentional Living Email me: me@jamiethurber.com Www.jamiethurber.com/operation-do 

After changing everything I could possibly think of to try and stop feeling drained I finally admitted that I might have some serious burnout… Which led to me making a massive change in the way I have been conducting business… and myself. In this episode I take you down the weird road I’ve been traveling since implementing this new way of operating. The good stuff. The strange stuff. The annoying stuff. And the badass side effects.   All the raw details and insight on how many this could be what you’re looking for to.

I was in the shower pondering on the way different people approach different situations and I thought about that question; What do you do when people are shitty to you?   Well, I feel like we all may have a go-to reaction that we’ve developed over the years when faced with people being sucky towards us but is that really the best option?   Is reacting the way you always have… helping YOU?   I realized while recording this episode that the way we handle shitty people has a direct result on how much drama we have in our worlds... and how much stress.   In this episode we dive into what to do... or more like what not to do when someone treats you badly... or things are just not going well.    I think it’s important to understand how and what to do so our quality of life isn’t brought down by someone else's behavior.

Life happens. It happens to all of us and we all have different circumstances BUT we all do get a choice on how we choose to handle it.    The thing is, you may see someone else and think, “Nothing bad ever happens to them.” but that’s fake news! Life doesn’t go according to planned for anyone, not all of the time anyway... people just handle it differently and that is what you’re seeing. It’s not lack of things happening, it’s lack of letting that win.   And this is why we practice.    In this episode I share a few very personal experiences and show how having the daily practice I do has allowed me to have shit hit the fan without my world crumbling down around me.    It’s possible. And it doesn’t take a magic pill. So let's dive into this a little deeper...   In this episode I mention; Eps 003- The sink vs the well… a better look into creating a solid foundation.   Eps 004 -Being Present, 010- The secret sauce, and 013- The morning would also be helpful to re-visit   Email me directly at me@jamiethurber.com   FB- facebook.com/jamiethurber.biz IG- instagram.com/jamie.thurber

“You need to put the phone down and be present with me!”  “But how dare you not answer when I call you!”   Dude, the hypocrisy around our expectations of each other when it comes to being accessible is out of control.   From the unrealistic expectations, to the unhealthy attachments, to the anxiety inducing fear that either someone is mad at us because they didn’t respond to the fear that if I don’t respond now, that person is going to be mad at me.   Honestly, it’s all pretty ridiculous BUT I think it’s something we’ve all fallen prey to at one point in time.    So, let’s talk about it. Let’s dive deeper into the root of some of these expectations, ways to identify them, shift them, and change the relationship we have with our phones and the constant need to be “on”.    We’re supposed to be fully present but also fully accessible and honestly, it’s exhausting. But does it really have to be that way? The answer is NO.    In this episode we mention; https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/018-boundaries/id1486644715?i=1000484991043 Distraction detox apps called App Detox and Quality Time.  Contact me direct at me@jamiethurber.com with any questions or comments.

Change starts with one person. Basically, you can change your way of existing simply by making a commitment to yourself to live in a place of integrity and truth. Whatever that means to you personally.    Honestly, I feel like this statement is way overused and drastically under-explained, so in the episode I share with you the story of how it became such an impactful statement in my life and also has influenced my entire state of being.    Now let’s see if we can really start that ripple effect we’re all looking for. #payitforward   In this episode I mention; https://jmeirene.com/2017/08/03/my-tattoo/ www.operationdo.com  Contact me anytime! me@jamiethurber.com

How do you overcome fear?  Become fearless.    Those are the big topics around how to push past a block or fear of something new, or big, or exciting.

There’s a piece of my reality that I rarely talk about, up until recently that is.  It’s something I’ve lived with, learned to navigate, and have had to focus on daily for 20 years. It’s also something that makes me who I am. It’s something I know I’m not an island about. It’s something that most people can relate to but never want to say anything because we feel like we’re complaining or making excuses. When in reality, we’re just talking about what is OUR actual existence.    In this episode I wanted to get really raw with you about my medical history, my health journey.    I hope you dive into this episode and listen to it in it’s entirety. If nothing else, it will give you more of an insight into me personally and also another large example of what it truly means to live life on your own terms.   Mentioned in this episode:  Sick Biz podcast; https://bit.ly/2QnpKHo Project manage your health: https://bit.ly/3jeBPe3  Truths about nausea: https://jmeirene.com/2018/02/17/nauseous/ The first time I publically shared it all; https://jmeirene.com/2018/07/10/my-battle/ Hard gainer: https://jmeirene.com/2016/12/13/confessions-of-a-hard-gainer/   Are you following Jamie on social media? facebook.com/jamiethurber.biz instagram.com/jamie.thurber    Sign up here to receive exclusive content sent directly to you: https://jamiethurber.com/newsletter/

The idea of perfection is sometimes a silent killer, especially when that seems to be all you’re seeing shown to you.    In this episode, I simply wanted to talk about the reality that most people don’t want you to see. My hope is that you can listen to this and realize that you’re not alone, that we’re all human, and that we all deserve some grace.    Questions? Comments?

The struggle. The war. The fight. The battle.  Do you find yourself using these words when describing your day, something that's happened to you, or maybe just life in general? In this episode we debunk the use of these words and go through first, why they’re so damaging and secondly, how to start approaching life differently so it’s not always something that requires a sword and shield.    I also go into a bit of detail about how moving these emotions out of your space makes so much more room for what you actually desire.   This topic is close to my heart and I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed recording it.   Much love! me@jamiethurber.com   Mentioned in this episode; Episode 3 -The sink vs the well https://www.podbean.com/eu/pb-3p8qf-c9364c   Liked this episode?

Looking outside of our own lens…. A concept I wish was more mainstream. Learning to take a moment and look outside of the small realm of our own reality, only our personal experiences is a tool that will prove more lucrative than you could imagine. In this episode, I dive deeper into the concept that maybe there is a way we can honor our own realities AND be able to not only SEE but honor and maybe even understand where others are coming from as well. This isn’t a discussion meant to change your thoughts, it’s a discussion that I hope will inspire you to get more deeply connected with your own actual belief and understand them more. Understanding yourself and why you choose to plant your flag somewhere creates a level of empowerment I think a lot of us spend most of our lives looking for. In this episode, I also discuss the massive benefit of learning to LEAN IN, because it’s really hard to hate up close. I’m excited about this one so I hope you’ll join me in this powerful talk.

In this episode, I jump right into how you can start making actual, lasting changes by creating foundational habits that last.    We’re not talking about how to get somewhere quick or take on 17 tasks right now to “change”, I’m talking about how to take actual steps towards something sustainable.    I feel strongly that that is one of the missing links with a lot of the content that is being plastered around media today, a lot of rah-rah here’s a big idea of how you’re “supposed” to be without any real, sustainable breakdowns of how to actually create that idea. And more importantly how to make it work in your everyday life and keep it.   There’s an act of building that muscle that must be involved if you really want to create a shift. In this episode, I example a way of operating that is adaptable to any and every situation you can think up.   It’s a priceless lesson you’ll probably want to listen to twice.   Mentioned in this episode; www.jamiethurber.com/operationdo   Email me at me@jamiethurber.com   And be sure to follow us at facebook.com/jamiethurber.biz or @jamie.thurber on instagram.

How much joy are you leaving on the table?    I know that might sound like a weird question but I got to tell you, up until about 2 years ago, I was leaving a lot of joyful moments to go unrecognized... and the impact it was making was huge.    In this episode I tell the story about how you could be holding yourself back from achieving more of what you want by depriving yourself of joy.   We talk about how to find the joy in the little things, perspective shifts to not only allow it but acknowledge it too and how to keep it flowing. I share some tactics you can use to start uncovering things in your daily life that can amplify you into this vibe like whoa... and have you reaping the benefits before you know it.    Now, let’s jump in and find you some damn joy!    Mentioned in this episode: Homey depot: https://youtu.be/eZXl9AUgxdE Online coaching: https://jamiethurber.com/operation-do/    If you’re interested in getting the exclusive content I put out on the newsletter, sign up here: https://jamiethurber.com/newsletter   Are we connected on social? www.instagram.com/jamie.thurber www.facebook.com/jamiethurber.biz www.jamiethurber.com
