In this episode, I introduce the Surviving to Thriving Framework and interview Megan Dilworth about how this framework has impacted her life. Megan is a wife and mother of three kids (ages 2-7) who is a member of The Thriving Team. She is a photographer, graphic designer, and lover of DIY projects.
Key Points from this Episode:
- Surviving to Thriving Framework:
- All the steps are important. There is no time frame on this path. We all will repeat this path over and over throughout our lives.
- 1. Surviving
- circumstances, not mindset
- 2. Re-entry
- Uncomfortable transition between surviving and trying to get back into real life
- 3. Normalizing
- 4. Exploring
- Establishing family culture and finding out what you love
- 5. Thriving
- Enjoy the beautiful moments. The seasons that feel like things are going well.
- Believing things are temporary will help us be more optimistic. These are temporary stages in our lives!
- Its okay to drop ideas that aren't serving you. It's okay to try new things, even if they don't end up lasting.
- The act of writing things down helps us remember.
