Have you ever felt like you're running on autopilot, chasing success without truly feeling fulfilled? In this episode of the Life Shift podcast, I sit down with Cathy Christen, a remarkable woman who learned to create a life by design after experiencing profound loss.

Cathy shares her journey of transformation, beginning with the unexpected passing of her cousin at age 23. This tragic event forced her to confront the emptiness of her pursuit of financial success and sparked a deep introspection about what truly matters in life.

Embracing intentional living

  • How Cathy shifted from chasing money to pursuing joy and fulfillment
  • The power of self-reflection and personal development in shaping your life's direction
  • Creating a vision for your future and reverse-engineering the steps to get there

Balancing success and personal well-being

  • The importance of nurturing different types of energy: spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical
  • Strategies for incorporating self-care and passion projects into a busy lifestyle
  • How slowing down can actually lead to greater success and happiness

Designing a life that aligns with your values

  • Tips for identifying what truly brings you joy and fulfillment
  • The impact of intentional choices on relationships, career, and personal growth
  • Encouraging the next generation to live purposefully and avoid the pitfalls of societal expectations

Cathy's story is a powerful reminder that it's never too late to reassess your priorities and create a life that truly excites you. Her insights offer valuable guidance for anyone feeling stuck or unfulfilled, showing how small, intentional changes can lead to profound shifts in happiness and purpose.

As you listen to this episode, consider:

  • What would your ideal life look like if you were watching it as a movie?
  • Are there areas of your life where you're operating on autopilot?
  • How can you incorporate more intentional choices into your daily routine?
