What began as a family adventure turned into a deeper exploration of how our beliefs, expectations, and communication patterns shape our experiences. From missed trains to meaningful encounters with strangers, each detour revealed something powerful about flexibility, discovery, and the importance of letting go of rigidity in order to find freedom.   In this episode, I share reflections from my recent trip to Japan and the unexpected lessons that came from getting lost, literally and figuratively. Together, we uncover how “being lost” can transform into an opportunity for growth, in our travels, our relationships, and our communication. Tune in to learn how curiosity and openness can turn uncertainty into clarity, and how getting lost might just be the path to finding your way.    Key Takeaways:  Lost Can Be the Lesson – Getting lost is often seen as failure, but it can be one of life’s greatest teachers. When the path we expect suddenly changes, we are given a chance to slow down, observe, and understand more deeply what surrounds us. Losing direction can shift our focus from reaching a destination to appreciating the process itself.  Challenging Expectations – Expectations shape how we experience the world, but they can also blind us to what is actually unfolding. When reality does not align with what we imagined, it can reveal the biases and assumptions that quietly guide our thoughts.   Discovery Through Getting Lost – Getting lost challenges the need for certainty. It invites us to be flexible, to adapt, and to find our footing in unfamiliar territory. When we stop resisting and begin to explore, we learn that not every moment needs to be perfectly directed. The openness that comes from being lost encourages creativity, curiosity, and a renewed sense of trust in the unfolding process.  Finding Wonder in the Unexpected – Frustration often marks the beginning of discovery. What starts as inconvenience can become an opportunity to witness beauty we might have overlooked. When we release the need for everything to go as planned, we begin to notice details that spark joy.  Communication as Exploration – In conversation, being “lost” can feel uncomfortable, but it also opens the door to deeper understanding. When we stop striving for perfection in what we say or hear, we begin to listen with curiosity instead of fear. This mindset transforms communication into a shared exploration rather than a performance.    Helpful Resources:   Exploring Beyond Comfort – When conversations or circumstances feel unstable, the instinct is often to retreat. But stepping forward instead can lead to discovery and greater understanding. By leaning into curiosity rather than control, we learn to see discomfort not as a threat but as an invitation to stretch beyond what feels familiar.   Transforming Communication and Culture – When communication is built on psychological safety and mutual respect, it strengthens both relationships and systems. Every conversation has the potential to restore connection, repair misunderstanding, and cultivate belonging. True transformation begins when communication becomes a tool for healing and shared purpose.    Follow Dr. Maiysha on Social media Facebook: www.facebook.com/DrMaiysha Instagram: www.instagram.com/DrMaiysha Youtube: www.YouTube.com/DrMaiysha    Hosted by: Dr. Maiysha Clairborne  Communication is the foundation of everything and everything happens in communication.

In this episode with Dr. Thea Blystone, I talk with a longtime friend and trailblazing clinical pharmacist who is transforming how healthcare teams collaborate. We talk about the power of a multidisciplinary team, how pharmacists can show up beyond the dispensing role, and why honoring each member’s lane strengthens the entire system. If you’re in healthcare or passionate about changing it, this one’s for you.   Key Takeaways:   Working Together is Better Than Competing – When egos get in the way, people suffer. You can be the smartest in the room, but if you’re not willing to work with others, you’ll miss the best of things. Remember, no matter your skill, you’re stronger with a team. Success means little if it hurts others, but working together helps everyone win and changes lives.    The Danger of Rigid Mindsets - We're trained to stay in our “lane,” but those lanes become mental prisons. Instead of boundaries that protect, we build walls that isolate. And slowly, we forget how to connect, collaborate, or even ask for help.    The Chaos of Complexity - The world moves fast, and one-lane thinking won’t cut it anymore. The more lanes we create, the more coordination we need, not control. If you try to lead everything, you’ll crash into burnout.    The Fear of Not Knowing - We’re taught to hide uncertainty like it’s a flaw. But the strongest leaders ask questions, look things up, and admit what they don’t know.    Delegating lets everyone shine - Trying to do everything alone is a fast track to burnout and failure. When you let others step up, you multiply your power. Everyone has a unique gift waiting to shine but about handing over the baton, not holding it tight because teams thrive when they trust each other to run their part of the race.    Helpful Resources:  The Value of Teamwork and Being Open to Others - Sometimes, people feel scared to work with others because they worry about losing what they have. But the real lesson is that working together can make things better for everyone. When we share the load and help each other, we don’t have to do everything alone.  “Winning” Traps You in a Crowded Fight - Playing to win means you’re stuck in a crowded arena, fighting over scraps. You don’t have to crush anyone to succeed. Sometimes, creating space is the ultimate power move.  Put Others First- When working with others, the most important thing is to focus on the people who need help. Instead of arguing or focusing on ourselves, we should work together for the best outcome.     About Thea Blystone PharmD  Dr. Thea Blystone is a passionate pharmacist and mentor who turned a season of homelessness and hopelessness into a powerful mission.
