12. Happiness Isn’t the Goal

Insource - A podcast by Ashlie Molstad - Thursdays

Categories:

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Nah. Happiness isn’t the goal. Resilience is. Confidence is. Growth is. We can’t be happy all of the time, and yet, we’re taught from such a young age that happiness is all that matters. So, when we inevitably find ourselves in seasons or situations that leave us feeling something other than happy and joyful, we make it mean that there is something wrong with us. What if, instead of being in constant pursuit of happiness, we focused on being in constant pursuit of presence… no matter what emotion comes up. In todays episode I’ll break down what this looks like  in real time practice. And how to shift your thinking so that when you’re feeling an emotion that doesn’t feel great, its not because you’re doing it wrong. You’re doing it exactly right. Lean into it. Learn from it. Grow stronger, more confident, more resilient.. and then, when happiness does greet you, bask in it for as long as its there… knowing it too, shall pass. Todays episode is about feeling ALL of life. See you inside 💥
