Boss Body

Episode Summary:

Every moment, no matter how challenging, holds the potential for significant learning and growth. That’s because our experiences, both positive and negative, are designed to teach us something.

If you’re looking for practical strategies for navigating through difficult times, this episode is a must-listen.

I interviewed Donnalynn Riley, a resilience expert and joy coach, about the process of cultivating joy and inner peace even in the face of adversity.

Her own journey began when her husband passed away suddenly, then her house was sold just days later, forcing her to move. Instead of succumbing to despair, Donnalynn allowed herself to experience the pain of loss and the joy that coexisted in-between.

Donnalynn shares her insights and practical strategies for managing emotions and finding happiness.

In this episode, we touch on topics such as:

• Fostering true happiness within
• How trials can transform into treasured experiences
• Harnessing the growth opportunities in life’s toughest tests
• Understanding the process of healing and growing from adversity

“If we can learn the skill of coming back to peace, this knowing that all is well, then you can act from a place that is far more peaceful, plugged in, and ultimately more powerful than your scenario.” - Donnalyn Riley
