Quotes
• “Life is made of teeny catalytic moments of immense impact. When strung together, the transformation is magical. Join us and let's color outside the lines.” (00:30-00:40)
• “I joined this amazing, legendary league of healthcare practitioners thinking that I would love my career as a rural family doctor. And I did to a point, but the landscape of medicine changed underfoot and I found myself pretty young, 15 years into my career, in a foreign land where I felt like I had no idea where I was. And that was burnout. I felt devalued, depersonalized, and like I was running on this treadmill without any end in sight.” (1:39-2:14)
• “All of us are creative. All of us are creating our destiny day by day, moment by moment. That’s the whole purpose of this podcast is sequencing together these tiny little impactful moments that catalyze a brilliant technicolor future. Inside of us are artists, musicians, and writers, and just like every creative person, we have an idea. We have a vision and we need to learn how to make that vision a reality, painting our masterpiece of work, life, beauty. That’s what mentorship is for me. It’s making this flow channeled creativity-driven practice for healthcare practitioners across the world. Make it as easy as child’s play.” (3:00-3:45)
• “You don’t have to have it all figured out yet. If you anchor into your core values, into your somatic embodiment, and you’re aware, you can start painting onto that canvas. You can start sequencing those steps. As you keep redirecting and filtering your experience through your body and your intuitive awareness and your vision, you can pivot when needed. You can find the next steps that fit in your alignment.” (5:14-5:41)
• “Think of what will help you feel the safest and most secure first because you don’t have to have all those tools right away. Getting that bare minimum security locked in place invites the creative spirit, the divergent thought patterns to come forward, and you’ll start coming up with ideas you never even knew you had.” (12:34-13:03)
• “When you feel that pull to work harder, you need to be now asking yourself ‘Am I the bottleneck? Should I be asking who, not how to solve this problem?’ You might need to set aside time to find ways to increase with numbers: hiring an assistant, adding group visits, looking at a membership platform. That might be the one step you can take that will exponentially change how you can practice.” (19:53-20:23)
