Two Things You Must Do If You Want To Grow, Transform, and Succeed

In this episode of the Everyday EQ podcast, Julia discusses the two key components of growth: Healing and taking action. Listen along as Julia breaks down how healing and action work together, and why you MUST do both at the same time in order to create consistent momentum toward your end goal. Julia even shares an exercise you can do to identify what exactly you'll need to heal during your own growth process. 00:42 - There are two components of growth that you have to be working on simultaneously in order for you to evolve: Healing and action. 1:17 - What Julia means by "action"1:40 - Julia defines what the "healing" portion entails.2:15 - This is what happens when you focus too much on just one or the other (Pro tip: Don't do that).3:57 - The pitfall we may encounter if we take action without working on the healing, too.5:14 - Healing can provide the clarity and confidence we need to take better aligned, more effective actions.7:22 - Balancing both will create forward momentum toward who you're trying to become or what you're trying to achieve. 7:41 - Great, we got that cleared up. Now, which one do you start with first?7:48 - Well, you probably already know what action you need to take. (Yes, even you who's saying, "I don't know" right now.)8:01 - The first steps might look like undoing some parts of your life.9:24 - And sometimes that process of undoing doesn't feel so comfy. 10:39 - All actions count, from the big umbrella action to the small, daily decisions. 12:07 - Now back to those of you who think you "don't know" what action to take.12:23 - Here's why you are telling yourself that you "don't know." Also, confusion is not a thing.15:14 - If we already know what action we need to take, it's time to look at the healing side of things. 15:31 - The thing to focus on in your healing15:45 - Here's an exercise you can do to identify all the programming that's keeping you from taking action and moving towards your goal life.17:05 - This is the programming that you'll need to heal and integrate.17:59 - How the process starts to flow together19:11 - Think about "programming" as if you were a computer. When you heal, you rewrite misaligned/poor programming and replace it with better, aligned, supportive programming. This optimizes your operating system and helps you live your best life. (Learn more about  how to optimize your operating system in Episode 2: How Emotional Intelligence Helps You Be Your Best Self.)20:47 - A word to the wise: Healing isn't linear.22:11 - To recap...23:00 - It's a lifelong process, but we love that.If you have a question for Julia about what you heard today, she'd love to hear from you!
