S11 / E3: Thrive

In this week’s episode we chat about thriving, and how we try and reframe our approach.

Why have we chosen to talk about thriving?

• It’s connected to high solar energy - the fullness and vitality of this time of year

• Our guiding word for June is flourish, so it feels relevant as we start to look ahead to the Summer Solstice (we explored the word ‘flourish’ in Season 7 Episode 1)

• Summer is often considered the season of ‘living your best life’ - this narrative can be quite challenging, so we think there’s a different way to think about thriving that can help us to ‘make the most’ of this time of year without all the expectations, pressure and comparison

What do we chat about?

• The active, intentional nature of thriving

• Asking: What does thriving feel like for me? (& the importance of bringing in the body)

• Tending to our roots in order to thrive

• The difference between surviving, striving and thriving - and how thriving could be a mindset, a lens to view the world, or a container
