“This too shall pass.” Being human means understanding that challenging times, as tough as they may be, won’t last forever. It’s the highs and lows, the ebbs and flows that make up our everyday existence. But how do we work through those lows–or as Erin likes to call them, the ‘dips’? In this episode, we navigate the intricate terrain of managing the ‘dips’ – those moments when darkness creeps in and threatens our optimism and resilience. Whether it’s seasonal affective disorder, single parenthood, career demands, or the struggle with self-care and transitions, this episode is your reminder that life isn't always sunshine and roses–and that’s ok. Tune in for tips, tools, and wisdom from Erin’s personal experiences on how to maneuver these curves, including:Acknowledging that life isn't a constant upward trajectory; it's about embracing the blend of light and shadow that shapes our journeyUnderstanding that challenging times will pass, support is there for you if you reach out, and that setting boundaries is self-careFind solace in gratitude by recognizing the blessings, small joys, and connections that anchor us in turbulent timesEmbracing vulnerability and recognizing that it's okay not to have everything figured outWant more Hotter Than Ever?
