With any given situation, there are things within our control and then there are things that are maybe unfortunate but completely out of our control. Sometimes, it feels like there are way more things out of our control and life ends up happening to us. But there are still many things that are in our control, so this week, let’s challenge ourselves to think: what can we control?

Do you find that you often say “yes” to things that you’ll regret or resent later, but you do it because you don’t want to disappoint someone? Do you find you hesitate to buy certain things, wear certain outfits, or do something that you want because you don’t know if it’s the “right” choice?

We naturally seek social validation because we, as humans, are a community-based species. But, constantly seeking validation for everything is exhausting. This week, we’re exploring how we can find that balance.

Regrets are heavy. They can weigh us down, anchoring us to the past and preventing us from fully experiencing the present. They often arise from the actions we did not take that lead to missed opportunities as well as the actions we did take that we wish we did differently.

But life is full of mistakes, so how do we live a full life without regret?

This week, we will explore the power of regret, what it means to live without regret, and how to cope with feelings of regret.

The clock is ticking—we are growing older by the minute, and we have no control over it. What we can control is what we do with the time. Yet, it often feels like our efforts can not measure up to the young stars who have skyrocketed to success through social media, achieving what seems impossible (and yet feels like a standard we should have reached) at such a young age.

Meanwhile, we are living our normal life, grappling with our fair share of challenges, and still searching for that elusive success that we feel we should have achieved years ago.

This week, let’s examine why we feel behind in life, the vicious cycle of “catching up” in life, and how to overcome feeling behind.

Non-negotiables are the rules and activities you refuse to sacrifice. They are your core values. They are close to your heart, meaningful to you, and energizing. Non-negotiables exist in every aspect of your life (relationships, career, personal life, etc.) whether you are consciously aware of them or not.

This week, let’s discover our non-negotiables so that we can start creating systems, relationships, and a life that aligns with what is most important to us.
