Show Notes

In this episode, I introduce the Surviving to Thriving Framework and interview Megan Dilworth about how this framework has impacted her life. Megan is a wife and mother of three kids (ages 2-7) who is a member of The Thriving Team. She is a photographer, graphic designer, and lover of DIY projects.

Key Points from this Episode:
  • Surviving to Thriving Framework:
    • All the steps are important. There is no time frame on this path. We all will repeat this path over and over throughout our lives.
    • 1. Surviving
      • circumstances, not mindset
    • 2. Re-entry
      • Uncomfortable transition between surviving and trying to get back into real life
    • 3. Normalizing
      • Basic routines
    • 4. Exploring
      • Establishing family culture and finding out what you love
    • 5. Thriving
      • Enjoy the beautiful moments. The seasons that feel like things are going well.
  • Believing things are temporary will help us be more optimistic. These are temporary stages in our lives!
  • Its okay to drop ideas that aren't serving you. It's okay to try new things, even if they don't end up lasting.
  • The act of writing things down helps us remember.
