In this episode of the Soul Shift Sessions podcast, titled "From Surviving to Soul Living," coaches Sapphire Starr and Kyle McCloud discuss the transition from merely surviving to truly thriving in life.
Key themes include:
- Defining Thriving: Coach Kyle defines thriving as living without constant stress and anxiety, being present in the moment, and enjoying life to its fullest, even when facing challenges.
- Mindset Shift: Coach Sapphire emphasizes that moving from surviving to thriving primarily involves a shift in mindset. She highlights how many people are stuck in a "hustle, hustle, hustle" mode, leading to burnout and stress, and that a major life event often serves as a wake-up call.
- Individual Definition of Thriving: Both coaches stress the importance of individually defining what "thriving" and "success" look like, as it varies greatly depending on personal circumstances, financial motivations, and family situations.
- Overcoming Limiting Beliefs: They discuss how past experiences and generational conditioning, such as parents working multiple jobs for survival, can instill limiting beliefs that hinder one's ability to truly live and enjoy life beyond just earning an income.
- Importance of "What's Important to You": The core question to begin the shift from surviving to thriving is identifying what is truly important to oneself. This serves as a "north star" or "guiding light" for making conscious choices and setting goals.
- Action and Accountability: The coaches encourage taking small, consistent steps and holding oneself accountable to a plan. They highlight that focusing on small wins throughout the journey is crucial for developing and maintaining momentum.
- Community and Alignment: They emphasize the significance of aligning with like-minded individuals and communities to support one's journey. Being surrounded by people who understand and encourage personal growth can make the process feel less heavy and more empowering.
- Embracing Challenges and Imperfection: The discussion touches upon the idea that life will inevitably have its "valleys" and challenges, but these experiences contribute to growth and development. They advocate for embracing imperfections and not taking oneself too seriously.
- Choice and Reality: The video concludes by reiterating that choosing to focus on what is hoped for and what is working, rather than solely on current problems or perceived realities, is a deliberate choice. Not making a choice to change means choosing to remain in an undesirable situation.
