351: The last one with covid

In this episode of her podcast, Betsy discusses her recent struggle with an array of life disruptions, most notably, her bout with COVID. She talks about her life going sideways over the past six weeks, including health problems and unexpected issues in her new house. With a backdrop of constant challenges, Betsy was forced to surrender and rethink her approach to life. Her bout with COVID made her realize she was investing too much energy into places that weren’t bringing her joy or progress. Instead of being in a state of constant hustle and accomplishment, she has learned to enjoy the process of tasks and focus on the present moment. This newfound perspective has given her a sense of alignment, feeling as if she’s been reborn. Betsy encourages listeners to take time for themselves, be present, and avoid the constant need for accomplishment. transcription: Welcome to the Art of Living big podcast. My name is Betsy pake. I’m an author, a speaker, and a trainer of NLP and hypnotherapy. And I’m focused on helping you understand and design your life with the power of the subconscious. This podcast is designed to help you think differently about what could be possible for your life. Now, let’s go live big. Hello fellow adventurers. Hi, everybody. Wow, this was some rough energy the past six weeks. I have been through it. So I missed last week, I’ve had COVID. And actually, today is the first day that I’ve felt like, okay, like it’s leaving my body. So it’s been about 10 days now. And I have really been struggling this past six weeks, like, everything has gone sideways. You know, you guys have heard maybe heard the episode where I talked about the leak in my apartment. And I’m not even going to go into all the different ways that things went sideways. And honestly, even if I did, I don’t think you’d believe me, you’d be like, there’s no way and then and then and then that how can that be? Everything sideways. Now, I have a really strong belief that everything is always working out for me. I really believe that. And that has kept me going through lots of things in my life, where from outward appearances, it would seem like things aren’t okay. And I just have a belief that everything is working in my favor. And so I have noticed over the past six weeks, like, I’ve had to deal with things like there’s been actionable things I’ve had to do just to, like, make it through, you know, with the leak, and you know, many, many things that happened in my apart barrel at my house, my new house I moved into. But in all of that, I finally got to where I was just like, I’ve got to surrender. And I don’t know how, like, I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing. I just know that I’m like, I felt like I was like treading water. Like as soon as I would fix one thing, you know, a next thing would come. And you know, I, I got an $800 water bill from my first month, and I wasn’t even in the house. So then I was like, Oh my God, is there a leak in my house yet to be determined. But while I was working on that the air conditioner, unit froze. And then there was an issue with my roof. And then I had a attack cyber attack and took money from my account. Like I there were so many things. And I was like, I don’t know how to surrender to this. Like, what am I supposed to do? Help me surrender. And so of course, as the universe does, it said, Well, let me just give you COVID Because then you will just have to lay in bed, just lay in bed. And I.
