"If you want a happy ending, well that depends on where you stop your story." - Carson Wells (Amercian actor, director, and writer)
There is a rhythmic ebb and flow in life, but not as much is talked about the ebb as is the flow. The ebb almost feels like something is wrong, you're not doing it right, it shouldn't be this way, and can become a desperate attempt to get into the flow - upbeat happy and blissed out phase where everything is going great.
There's no shortage of books helping us get into and then stay in the flow and be happy.
But there's good stuff in the ebb too, even though it usually doesn't feel like it in the moment. There can be a lot of growth and benefits to being in a rut, feeling stuck, failing, being hurt, getting angry and feeling confused.
In today's episode, we're getting into some of those benefits, ideas for embracing it, and tips for getting out of it when you're there longer than you want/need to be.
