Embrace Spring: Turning 'Have To' into 'Get To'

Episode Overview

  • Flip your mindset from 'have to' to 'get to' for a more positive outlook.
  • Embrace change as a natural part of life, much like the seasons.
  • Gratitude lists can quickly shift your mindset to a positive one.
  • A solid morning routine sets the tone for a better day.
  • You're not alone in your struggles; support is available.
You are not alone if you're out there and you're like, oh my gosh, my life is so overwhelming. It's too much. No, that's the lie. It's not too much. You can do this.
Spring is here, and with it comes the promise of change and new beginnings. In this episode of 'Busy Living Sober', Elizabeth Chance dives into the transformative power of springtime, celebrating graduations, and the shifts that come with the season. She challenges the notion of 'having to' do things and flips it to 'getting to' do things, making everyday tasks feel like privileges rather than burdens.
Elizabeth shares her personal experiences with sobriety, reflecting on the fear and excitement that accompany major life changes, much like graduating from different stages of life. She recounts her journey to sobriety, starting from her first 12-step meeting, and how she overcame the fear of the unknown by focusing on gratitude and self-awareness. Elizabeth also touches on the importance of having a morning routine and the tools she uses to start her day right.
She emphasises the significance of identifying and managing feelings before they take over, using gratitude lists as a quick way to shift to a positive mindset. Her anecdotes about planting flowers and enjoying the simple pleasures of life serve as a reminder that change, although daunting, can bring about beautiful outcomes. This episode is a heartfelt pep talk for anyone feeling overwhelmed by life's demands.
Elizabeth's genuine and compassionate approach makes it clear that you're not alone in your struggles and that you have the power to turn 'have to' into 'get to'. So why not embrace the change? You might find that life is more vibrant than you ever imagined.
