24. Connecting with Your Future Self


Episode Summary: 

In this episode, I dive into what I mean when I talk about ‘future self' and share questions to guide conversations with that version of you. I also explain how connecting to future you is a great tool for creating happiness and joy in your life. 


Show Notes:

When you talk to your future self, that version of you knows your past, present, and future. They have the wisdom to get you where you want to go and can reveal your ‘why’ and ‘how’ in ways that no one else can. 


In this episode, I dive into what I mean when I talk about ‘future self' and share questions to guide conversations with that person. I also explain how connecting to future you is a great tool for creating happiness and joy in your life. 


Our brains are wired to choose known discomfort rather than make a risky move into new territory. We might not be content with our job, lifestyle, or habits, but at least we know what they are. When we tap into that dreamy future self, answers about what goals to set and how to achieve them start to unfold. 


Listen in to learn how the happiness you're looking for can be found from talking to your future self.
