What Was Real This Year — What Your Actions Tell You About Your True Values

Ep 49
October 05 · 25 mins 33 secs
Show notes

What did you actually care about this year, and what were you just performing? In this episode, Blaze turns to the emotional truth of your year: distinguishing what came from your heart from what you showed up for out of obligation.

Using her own year of "belonging" as an example, Blaze explores how your life is less a list of goals and more a living ecosystem: a home, a business, a body, a community; all connected like a forest. She shares a vulnerable realization about the energetic cost of certain roles (like motivating or managing others), and why knowing what you'll never do is just as valuable as knowing what you love.

You'll learn why what you actually did — not what you said you cared about — reveals your true values, why resistance is information rather than a character flaw, and how to give the person you are on your best and worst days some genuine appreciation.

This episode is an invitation to stop pushing through out of principle, start trusting what you already know about yourself, and find the freedom to live your life from a place of alignment instead of performance.

You can read a full transcript of this episode here.

If this conversation resonates and you want to dig deeper into what your values actually are, download the free Living in Rhythm Starter Kit for a quick exercise that will leave you feeling refreshed and calmer.
