You 6-step guide to Do Better

Let's cut the crap. You've probably been told a thousand times to "just do better," but no one ever tells you how. They just expect you to magically become a motivated, productive, emotionally-regulated superhero overnight.

Yeah, we call bullshit.

In our latest episode, we're breaking down exactly how to "do better" in a way that doesn't make you want to roll your eyes into the back of your head. It’s a six-step guide that starts with a simple breath and ends with you realizing you are the only one holding the keys to your own life. No saviors, no mystical interventions required.

Here’s a taste of the chaos:

• The Great Water Debate: We dive into a rant about people who don't like water (the audacity) and Jill's personal journey into the dangerous territory of having… truly clear piss. (It's a cautionary tale).

• Your Kidneys Can't "Kidney" It: A powerful, if not bizarre, metaphor for what happens when you take a good thing too far without conscious action.

• The "BETTER" Acronym: We actually got structured for you. Don't worry, it didn't last long.

  • Breathe: Before you believe the story your brain is telling you.

  • Embody: Get out of your head and into your physical sensations.

  • Time Out: Change the channel. Physically move. It's not just for toddlers.

  • Time In: Get curious, not furious. Honest self-reflection.

  • Execute: Do ONE small thing. Action builds momentum, not the other way around.

  • Recognize + Reframe: What is something more empowering than the thought you are holding? Rewrite the words to be meaningful.

• No One's Coming to Save You: We say it. A lot. This is the core of the episode. The universe might be on your side, but it respects HUSTLE. You have to be the one to ask for help, to take the first step, to close the gap.

A Moment to Pause in the Chaos

If you need a quick hit of clarity, here are the real takeaways, stripped of the chaos (mostly). 😏

1. Motivation is a Follower, Not a Leader. 🛑 Stop waiting to feel like doing the thing. Action builds momentum, and motivation follows. Always.

2. The 1-Degree Shift. 🧊 The difference between ice and water is just one degree. You don't need a massive overhaul; you need one tiny, incremental change to create a completely different state.

3. Reframe to the Neutral. If "I am a powerful, confident goddess" feels like a lie, don't go there. Find the neutral ground. Swap "My life is overwhelming" for "I am feeling overwhelmed right now." ❣️ Your nervous system will believe you, and that's what matters.

4. You Can Hold Two Truths at Once. Life can be brutally hard and contain moments of pure joy and beauty. Allowing yourself to feel both is not a contradiction; it's the entire human experience.

5. Pain is a Sensation; Suffering is the Story. What if pain was just a physical signal, and all the agony we attach to it is just a story we've learned to tell? 🤔 This one will mess with you (in the best way).

   
   

You are your own device. You are the requester of help, the initiator of action, and the narrator of your story. The most powerful thing you can do today is one small thing that proves to yourself—and the universe—that you're serious. Watch the full episode here.
