Welcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!
In this episode, Lauren is joined once again by her good friend Bill for a heartfelt conversation about maintaining a positive mindset and focusing on what’s within your control.
They kick things off by discussing the grip that technology, especially our phones, can have on our lives, reflecting on how easy it is to get caught up in mindless scrolling and constant notifications. Listen in for some top tips for setting boundaries with devices to create space for the things that really matter, and a reminder to focus on the present moment.
The conversation then shifts to the importance of living life on your own terms. Lauren and Bill explore the challenges of balancing personal goals with the expectations of others, offering suggestions for how to avoid being dictated to by other people’s timetables. They also talk candidly about learning to say “no” and reclaiming your autonomy in a world full of demands.
As the discussion continues, Lauren and Bill reflect on what it really means to measure success. Is it about external achievements, or something more personal? They share their perspectives on finding fulfilment through alignment with your values, celebrating small wins, and embracing progress over perfection.
Throughout the episode, Lauren and Bill return to the simple yet profound idea of presence. They talk about the beauty of living in the moment, cherishing the small joys, and practising gratitude even in tough times. Their conversation serves as a reminder to let go of what you can’t control and focus on the moments that make life worth living.
Whether you’re feeling bogged down by the pressures of modern life, or simply seeking a little inspiration to live with greater intention, this conversation is definitely worth a listen!
