Have you ever had a job that you absolutely hated? Each morning you almost need a forklift to get you out of bed to get you moving, and on your way to work. While you are there, motivation is non existent and you feel like your very life force is being sucked out of your body.

I believe that most of us have felt that way at one time or another, but the big question is why do people stay in those jobs, while others move on to do things that they are more passionate about. Our amazing guest today is here to shed some light on how work can become meaningful play!

As a positive psychologist, coach and writer, Lisa Avery helps individuals connect with the unique passion and purpose that drives their personal and professional success. She is fascinated by what propels a person to pursue their vocation, entwining their innate strengths, values and interests to serve both themselves and the rest of the world.
 
Lisa fuses the art of Coaching with the science of Positive Psychology to help individuals gain the clarity, confidence and courage to become all they aspire to be.

Episode Highlights: 
  • Lisa discusses with us the difference between a vocation, job and a career. 
  • Where do extrinsic and intrinsic motivations come into play? 
  • People need the feeling of constantly growing and the going above and beyond one's ego.
  • People tend to be happiest when they are not focusing on themselves. 
  • We talked about the 2 different ways to be happy: Hedonic and Eudaimonic
  • Is the need for vocation for everyone?
  • The father of Positive Psychology, Martin Seligman says if we have P.E.R.M.A: Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationship, Meaning, Accomplishment, we will be a pretty well rounded overall wellness.
  • authenticity is NOT a destination, it's a journey. 
  • The University of Pennsylvania has a Strengths Survey that you can take to discover what yours are. Click the link and create a profile and then you can access that survey and many others in the Authentic Happiness section.

  • Lisa introduced us to The Best Future Self exercise
  • Its the gap between your real self and your future self that causes frustration, anxiety and sadness. By taking some action towards your future self, incredible things can happen. 
  • What kind of activities would you do for the rest of your life if no one was looking and if money wasn't involved?

​Have you ever started down a path, whether it be a career or a relationship, where you discovered that it wasn’t of your choosing. You realize that you are living your life for someone else, based on their expectations of you and the judgments that you would receive if you didn’t follow it.

Have you ever felt like you weren’t in control of your own life, like you were a spectator instead of a participant and true happiness seemed like something that only happens in fairy tales.
Today’s amazing guest knows that feeling all too well and she is here to tell us how you can Live Happy from the Inside out.

Podcaster, International Speaker, Huffington Post contributor and creator of the Foundations of Happiness eCourse, Maura Sweeney guides others on the path of “Living Happy – Inside Out.” Armed with decades of experience as a law school “escapee”, a corporate manager, a business co-owner and a home schooling mom, Maura launched out at midlife to pursue her dream vocation as A world traveler and trademarked Ambassador of Happiness®, Maura is a popular media guest sharing unifying “good news” perspectives with the world.

Episode Highlights: 
  • The details of our lives may vary but so many of us have a similar story. 
  • Who am i and what do I want to display to the world. 
  • The light/candle within us is what gives our lives meaning and purpose. 
  • Who is the most feared person that you're afraid to meet? 
  • Look at ourselves with an inner light of benevolence (love) in the process of reflection. 
  • Forgiveness of everyone and of self brings us to the place of ultimate love. 
  • When people are drowning themselves in addictions, there is a part of unforgiveness that is creating the inner turmoil. 
  • So many of our behaviours revolve around guilt and obligation. 
  • Truth is your faithful friend 
  • Everything you've been searching for is already within you! 
  • Happiness is something we can consciously cultivate. 
  • Ask yourself what gave you joy when you were a child, to help you reignite that light within you. 
  • Trust yourself that there is a beautiful gift within yourself that is waiting to be seen by the world.
