Perhaps ”Being Average” Isn’t A Bad Thing

In a world where there is constant pressure to grow, evolve, do our best, strive, and achieve - perhaps some of the best medicine we can give ourselves is the permission to "be average". 

I know - encouraging someone to "be average" is almost like saying a bad word in the society we all live in today. But, hear us out. 

In this episode, Bryan talks to Dr. Anastasia Ristau about how "being average" maybe isn't such a bad thing, and actually an invitation to lean into and embrace our humanness. 

They talk about what the word "average" means to them, how "average" may being us closer to those around us, and ways to flow between the "average" moments in life and those times where we need to push, strive and achieve. 

Dr. Ristau is a Licensed Psychologist and the Director of Psychotherapeutics at PrairieCare. 

As always - take what serves you, and leave the rest.
