053 - Welcome to Permission to Flow: The New Era of the Podcast
Manage episode 432920082 series 3345169
You may have noticed things look a little different around here. Welcome to the very first episode of Permission to Flow! I’m excited to share the story behind this rebrand and why it felt like the perfect direction for where we’re heading. This episode is all about embracing change, giving ourselves permission to evolve, and finding that beautiful flow in our lives and careers.
I was deeply attached to the name "A Way of Thinking", but during a brainstorming session with friends, “Permission to Flow” came to life, perfectly capturing the essence of creativity, movement, and flexibility. Change can be challenging, especially when it involves something we hold dear, but it’s about letting go of rigid expectations and allowing ourselves to grow and transform.
The concept of flow is central to everything I do—from yoga to coaching to podcasting. Flow state, creative flow, and yoga flow all represent the seamless, effortless movement we aspire to in our lives and careers. This episode explores how we can invite more of this flow into our daily routines and the importance of giving ourselves permission to be who we are. Often, we hold ourselves back due to societal expectations and self-imposed limitations, but pursuing our passions without guilt or hesitation is crucial. Let’s explore how we can flow with life’s changes together.
