Ep. 29: Feeling blocked? Do this first! (w/ Lauren Lowrey)

When life is craaazy or a major setback is put in your path, you have a few options on how you react. You can freak the -eff- out (not advisable). You can decide you're the victim (also, not advisable). OR you can just flow.

In this shorty Lauren-only episode, the AMPstigator herself shares a life-lesson she's learning in real time: how to flow. Too often we get sidelined by struggle. We give up! In this episode, Lauren encourages you to see setbacks as opportunities to pause, reevaluate and move on.

She also details when to call in reinforcements in the form of therapists and friends.

BONUS: Lauren shares how to sign up for a special August event, Mom's Night Out: Parenting to Inspire Purpose with AMPstigator guest and Holistic Life Coach, Clara Belden.
