Never Settle for Just Success with Dr.Kelly Flanagan | Know your why #246
EPISODE SUMMARY:
Do you ever wonder why some individuals seem to reach their maximum potential while others struggle to find their purpose? This episode might just have the key. We're honored to host Dr. Kelly Flanagan, a personal growth and relationship coach, who takes us through his journey from a clinical psychologist to a viral blogger, to an appearance on the Today Show. His story is a testament to the power of 'knowing your why,' a concept he passionately champions. Kelly's insights emphasize the importance of authenticity, emotional awareness, and managing our reactions in our quest to become more self-aware and emotionally balanced.
As a parent, do you ever feel overwhelmed by fears and expectations? We get real about this, digging into parenting's challenging aspects, examining how our anxieties and the messages we pass on to our children can shape their lives. Dr. Flanagan provides some thought-provoking perspectives on the necessity of supporting our kids in being themselves without making them feel like a disturbance. Furthermore, we look into how reclaiming our worthiness without doing can lead to profound healing and self-acceptance.
Finally, we dive headfirst into the power of emotional reactions and the practice of 'squishing.' Dr. Flanagan expertly guides us through the process of managing emotional reactions, advising us to move through them rather than suppress them, and respond from a place of deeper wisdom. We also explore the transformative power of opening our hearts, recognizing when we unknowingly shut them off, and finding ways to reintegrate all aspects of ourselves. This episode is an enlightening journey into self-discovery, authenticity, and the importance of embracing our true selves. Join us as we uncover these profound insights and more with Dr. Kelly Flanagan.
