Are you RESISTING life or RECEIVING it? - Ep.156
59m | Apr 21, 2026In this episode, I break down what it actually means to “receive” life and why most people are unconsciously resisting it, without even realising.
Through real-time examples from my own day (including things not going to plan, feeling triggered, and navigating frustration), I show you the difference between resisting what’s happening vs receiving and how this directly impacts your ability to create what you want.
This is one of the most important shifts you can make if you want to stop feeling thrown off, like you have to do everything yourself, unsupported or blocked by life.
Inside this episode:
- The subtle (but powerful) difference between receiving vs resisting
- Why things “not going to plan” only derail you if you let them
- How your ego creates stories that keep you stuck and reactive
- What it actually looks like to use everything that happens as fuel
- A simple way to move forward — no matter what’s happening around you
If you’ve ever felt like your day, your mood, or external circumstances keep throwing you off, this episode will completely shift how you see it.
