Finding Joy in Everyday Moments

- Joy can be found in the activities and conversations that awaken and enliven our being.
- Tripping over joyful moments can shift our perspective and change the course of our day.
- Sometimes breaking the pattern and coming out of our comfort zone can lead to a shift in perspective and a rediscovery of joy.
- Fanning the flames of joy means allowing ourselves to listen to our heart's desire and move forward.
- Paying attention to the beauty that's around us, whether it's nature, conversations, or creative activities, can remind us of our own natural state of joy.
- Tripping over joyful moments can be as simple as intentionally seeking out moments of joy in our daily lives.
- Write yourself a little post-it note. Use a pretty color and write, "I am tripping over joyful moments." And see how your life is changed for the better.
- Are you tired of searching for someone to understand you? Join our Facebook group, Someone Gets Me, where you can connect with others who are intense, sensitive, smart, and talented in a real, authentic, safe forum.

Mental Health for Visionary Leaders
Tuesday Jun 18, 2024
Tuesday Jun 18, 2024
In today's episode, we're going to talk about the mental health of visionary leaders. As a visionary leader, your mental health is not just about whether you have a diagnosis or not, or if you're sick. It's about your ability to effectively navigate the world and make a real difference. Visionary leaders, like you, have different considerations and additional challenges when it comes to mental health. It's not just about mental illness or having a diagnosis. It's about understanding and embracing your unique intensities and sensitivities.
Navigating Mental Health as a Visionary Leader
As someone who has been involved in caring about mental health since the 70s, Dianne your host has a great appreciation for the mental health of intensely sensitive people and visionaries. Visionary leaders are not just defined by their position in a company, but by their ability to see things differently and guide others in a meaningful, positive manner. Whether you're actively working in a corporate setting or enjoying retirement, your visionary leadership extends to all aspects of your life.
If you're feeling overwhelmed or struggling with burnout and compassion fatigue, know that there is always help available. Seeking support and prioritizing your mental health is a crucial step towards maintaining your well-being as a visionary leader. Remember, radical self-care is vital for sustaining your ability to make a positive impact in the world.

Tuesday Jun 11, 2024
Tuesday Jun 11, 2024
- Ignore Out-of-Alignment Criticism: Ignore comments or suggestions that are out of alignment with your goals and values. Thank the person for their input, but do not allow it to affect your thoughts and actions.
- Practice Contentment: Enjoy life right where you are in this moment. It's about allowing organic growth and being happy with who you are and where your life is right now, while still having dreams and goals for the future.
- Befriend Your Frustrations: Use frustration as a signal to move forward and make changes. Be aware of the message behind your frustrations and use them as energy to propel you forward.
- Channel Your Intensity: Embrace your intensities and learn how to channel them effectively. Recognize that your intensity is a vital part of who you are and can be a powerful asset in your work and personal life.
- Honor Your Sensitivities: Embrace your intuitive abilities and honor your sensitivities. Recognize the power of intuition as a form of knowledge and use it to make better decisions in your professional and personal life.

Pay Attention
Tuesday Apr 30, 2024
Tuesday Apr 30, 2024
In this episode, I explore a topic that's close to my heart: the importance of paying attention. It's a simple concept, yet it holds the power to transform our lives in profound ways. Here are some insights and lessons from the episode.
The Essence of Paying Attention:
Paying attention is an art that requires practice and intention. It's about being fully present in the moment, whether you're immersed in nature, engaged in a hobby, or simply breathing. When we pay attention to our surroundings, our inner selves, and our connection to the universe, we open ourselves up to a world of beauty, wisdom, and peace.
The Impact on Our Lives:
Drawing parallels from activities like sailboat racing and driving, I discuss how paying attention can significantly affect our lives and interactions. When racing a sailboat, the keen focus on the wind, the waves, and the boat's movements is crucial. Similarly, when driving, being alert to the road, other drivers, and the conditions can mean the difference between safety and danger. This heightened awareness can enhance our experiences and relationships in all areas of life.
Slowing Down to Speed Up:
In our fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and forget to breathe. I emphasize the need to slow down and be intentional with our actions. Whether it's taking a leisurely walk or focusing on our breathing, slowing down helps us to regain control over our stressed nervous systems. By doing so, we can manage stress more effectively and live more harmoniously.
The Joy of Playfulness:
Life isn't all about work and responsibilities. I am a firm believer in the power of play and fun. Swinging on a swing set, building something with your hands, or playing with toys can reignite the joy and creativity within us. These activities aren't just for children; they're a vital part of adult life too. They help us to relax, recharge, and approach life with a fresh perspective.
Unplugging and Connecting with Nature:
In our digital age, it's crucial to take a step back from electronic devices and reconnect with the natural world. I encourage you to spend time outdoors, breathe in the fresh air, and feel the earth beneath your feet. Nature has a way of realigning our souls, hearts, and minds, leading to a more balanced and fulfilled life.
The Power of Meditation and Relaxation:
Meditation is a powerful tool for achieving inner alignment. It allows us to quiet the mind, listen to our hearts, and find peace within ourselves. Relaxation, too, comes in many forms—whether it's reclining in a comfortable chair, enjoying a leisurely drive, or engaging in a hobby. These practices are not just indulgences; they're necessary for our well-being.
By incorporating mindfulness into your daily routine, you can cultivate a deeper awareness of yourself and the world around you. Remember, it's the little moments of attention that can lead to a lifetime of joy and fulfillment. So take a deep breath, slow down, and start paying attention to the wonders of life.
