Making Positive Changes to Finding Fulfillment in Your Life
Manage episode 485653627 series 3665727
Are you happy with your life? We’ve all experienced it—you realize you’ve reached an age that is definitively adulthood, but you still feel like you don’t know what you’re doing. Whether you’re feeling unfulfilled in the life you pictured yourself having as a child or feeling stuck in unexpected circumstances, you can make changes to live the life you want to live. In today’s episode of Femme Formula, Jessica and Marsais give tips on making positive changes that build up to a more fulfilling life.
Jessica and Marsais start by discussing the difficulty of balancing motherhood not only with date nights and personal needs, but also with motherhood itself as there is rarely enough time to attend all of your kids’ events. They move into giving examples of ways they made positive changes in their lives, and ways you can begin to implement changes too.

[0:00] Introduction
[0:40] Today’s episode is about fighting for the life you want. Marsais turned forty and realized that she still did not feel settled into adulthood, partly because she hadn’t found a way to live that felt completely fulfilling to her.
[2:50] Jessica celebrated her studio’s sixth anniversary over the past week. The years went by quickly for her.
[9:45] It’s hard not to feel guilty as mothers no matter what we do. Sometimes, as you balance your own needs and the needs of your children, you will miss things.
[11:25] Lots of mothers find it difficult to find any time to rest between after school activities, daily responsibilities, and being present with their children.
[16:40] Marsais told her son that he has to want to play football for him. Some families get wrapped up in doing what is expected of them, but Marsais suggests taking perspective in the decisions we make for our children.
[20:10] Marsais is reading Let Them.Theory, which is about letting people show you who they are and about taking action to change your circumstances.
[23:38] Making changes in your life can be fun. Marsais uses Table Topics with her kids, which helped make family dinners more fun and engaging.
[31:30] It is sometimes difficult to say no to our kids. Setting aside time for family will sometimes mean telling your kids that they can’t make other plans on scheduled nights. While this may be difficult in the moment, you won’t regret doing it.
