Welcome to Flex This!

This podcast is meant to share the stories and experiences of humans exercising their muscles of curiosity and emotional intelligence in their every day lives.

I believe there is no right or wrong, thereโ€™s only truth. Truth is personal, ever expanding and evolving, and the journey of a lifetime. My hope is through these conversations you can see parts of yourself and your own journey and can offer guideposts that resonate and help you connect  to your highest and most authentic self.

Take a look around, stay awhile, and have a listen or read, whatever fits your fancy. I have a many collections of thoughts through blogs and podcasts.

Flex This with Dee Dorsey Flex This

Description: In this episode, Dee and I dive deep into the importance of healing our wounds in order to know our authentic selves and how grief is woven into the fabric of our lives. We discuss how we are always given who or what we need to grow and heal in this human journey. Key Topics Covered: 1. Authenticity is a verb: True authenticity is never static. It is something we work at single every day. 2. Grief is profound and complex: Grief is a deeply personal process. There is no universally right or wrong way to grieve, fixed timeline for it nor is it predictable in how it will show up. 3. Growth Mindset: Understanding the power of a growth mindset in cultivating resiliency in our lives while embracing challenges in order to unlock our full potential. 4. Overcoming Challenges: Dee and I chat about the power in using the lessons and tools we gain navigating our own grief, healing and authentic journey to become the best version of ourselves and elevate the people around us.
