Description

Angela Kontgen is a meditation coach and creator who helps people live life at new levels. After a decade of coaching people in all aspects of life and leadership, these days she focuses on one thing: meditation. There are a number of reasons why, and she goes over those in our conversation

I love how Angela describes herself as being able to help people shift from “survival to creation mode” and to begin using the power of their mind to become the creators of whatever it is they wish to experience and become.

If you have ever questioned the path that you were on and wondered if there's something more, you're going to want to listen through this entire conversation.

If you are in a job that does not align with you and your values and you're not sure what to do about that, you're going to want to listen through this entire conversation.

If you've ever arrived to the point in your life, whether it be in a relationship or a career situation or with a certain habit and think, “I just can't do this anymore,” make sure to listen to this episode. You are going to want to hear what Angela has to share, especially throughout the second half of this conversation.

Some of the key takeaways I took from Angela included: 

1. Value of Awareness – First, there’s the art of noticing that you are not noticing, and recognizing the crutch of always being in a state of doing. Second, as young people we mostly did not have an awareness to even have awareness in the first place, which is why so many of us get well into our lives and find ourselves unhappy and adorned with what Angela calls the “golden handcuffs.”
2. The Joy of Rediscovering Yourself – Ideally, you’ll never lose yourself in the first place, but Angela rediscovered her love for wellness and physical fitness, which she had largely fallen out of touch with. For me, it was music, this podcast, creative expression … what is it for you?
3. What to expect once you decide to forge your own destiny - Angela gives a great description of this phenomenon, and it outlines why so many people never try. But if you can listen to and allow yourself to be guided by those who have gone through the fire before us, you’ll see that there is, in fact, a way through.
