Myths About Life

Friday Aug 29, 2025
Have you ever felt like you should be able to figure out and answer all of life's questions--immediately?
That if you could just find the one right lifestyle and location for you, your life would be all shimmer and shine?
That you should just find life and adulthood easier? That everyone else finds it easier?
These are myths about life that have their fingerprints all over our psyches.
They weigh on us and dredge up feelings of not-enoughness, pulling us away from the present moment and into traps of comparison and wishful thinking. These are the myths that we are unpacking and dispelling in today's episode, inspired by Sheryl's upcoming course: Break Free from Anxiety: A 9-Month Course on the Art of Living (which begins September 20, 2025).
Stay tuned for Part 2, a discussion of three more myths!
