In this episode of Bouncing Forward, I explain what it means to live more presently and give you 5 practical steps for you to incorporate presence into your daily life. No matter what you are going through – a lot or nothing at all – we can all benefit from living in the HERE and NOW.

Let's chat about STRESS. This is something every single one of us – no matter who we are – experience regularly. It is a part of our daily life. But here’s the thing: the tips we are often given seem “fluffy” or they are things that aren’t realistic for us to incorporate into our daily lives. So if stress is something we deal with daily, what can we actually do daily to help us cope, overcome, and prevent that stress? That is exactly what we are going to dive into in this episode of Bouncing Forward with Dr. Aditi.

Show notes

Welcome to Thursday's bonus episode of Bouncing Forward. In this episode, guest Ashley Lemieux talks to us about "clarity mapping". This is something she developed for herself when she felt like she hit rock bottom and is also something that helped her stand on her own two feet again!

Having to deliver her miscarried baby son alone in the hospital after she nearly died of sepsis amid the coronavirus pandemic, is the definition of resilient in my books. Ashley is also the author of the book, “I AM HERE: The Journey From Fear to Freedom”, as well as the founder of the Shine Project, which focuses on life-changing lessons learned in the darkest seasons of life.

In the full episode, Ashley outlines how trauma can make us feel stuck in our lives, why we get stuck and the steps we can actively take to become unstuck. Tune into the full episode here: SPOTIFY | APPLE PODCASTS.

31: Kute Blackson: The Magic of Surrender: Why We Need to Let Go of Control and Let Life Flow May 24, 2021

Show notes

Here’s the thing about life: We can’t control it. In fact, the more we try to control it, the harder life gets. That’s why it’s imperative to bouncing forward for us to surrender.

I know what you’re thinking…Really, Amy? That doesn’t sound like being resilient!

Trust me, sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself on your journey towards bouncing forward into all that you can be is to surrender and in this episode you’re going to learn why.

I’m joined by the amazing Kute Blackson who explains what it means to surrender, why it isn’t a passive action, how it helps us flow better in our lives, how to know when it’s time to surrender, and the steps we need to take to begin surrendering in our lives.

Kute is the son of a revered spiritual leader. By the age of eight, he was speaking to his father’s congregations, in more than 300 churches. At the age of fourteen, he was ordained into his father’s ministry preparing to carry on the father’s spiritual legacy. But his heart drew him to another path: America. Today, he is highly sought out by major companies, seeking to redefine their paradigm of success, and inspire greatness. He is also the author of the two life-changing books, You are the One and The Magic of Surrender, which just released in May of 2021.
