Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved?

Molly is everything that Life After stands for; after a rough childhood, she chose to make her life what it is today including a healthy relationship and thriving business. And, she works with others to create and build world changing missions. KEY TAKEAWAYS When getting out of a relationship with a narcissist: You can make changes in the patterns you know. Your body will tell you when it’s wrong – so listen! Having people around you that can listen and hear you will help tremendously. Writing is a useful way to process what’s happening to you and confirms the behaviors and patterns of the narcissist. BEST MOMENTS Amazong quotes from Molly in this episode: “I definitely had a knowing.” “It’s not until we fully acknowledge that pattern that we’re able to hopefully break our way out of it.” “It’s gonna have to get a little bit uncomfortable to get out of that pattern.” “If this is a cycle that keeps continuining, do you wanna give it one year of your life? Do you wanna give it six years of your life?

34:20 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked34:20
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedYour mindset can be impacted by limiting beliefs, fear and anxiety. Discover tips and tricks to change your limiting beliefs and mitigate or minimize your fear and anxiety so you can shift your mindset and achieve your dreams! We choose our mindset, and it’s much easier to do when we let go of our limiting beliefs and release our fears! KEY TAKEAWAYS Quick ways to reduce fear and anxiety which will help improve mindset. Focus on your breathing – breathing deeply compels our body to physically calm itself. Make sure that your exhale is longer than your inhale. Journal/write – keep track of how you are feeling/experiencing your fear for a couple of weeks. What patterns emerge? Writing the details down can help demystify your fears, thereby making them more manageable. Practice mindfulness – use what you learned in writing about your fears to become aware of your fears. Observe. Being passive raises your self-awareness and prevents you from doing the things you typically do when feeling the fear. Get out into nature – talk a walk outside. Being in nature is calming, reduces stress, and changes our moods, which all helps to shift our mindset. BEST MOMENTS Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry -- all forms of fear -- are caused by too much future, and not enough presence. –Eckhart Tolle We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear. – Martin Luther King Jr. The more you study delight, the more delight there is to study...I felt my life to be more full of delight. Not without sorrow or fear or pain or loss. But more full of delight. – Ross Gay In the stillness of the quiet, if we listen, we can hear the whisper of the heart giving strength to weakness, courage to fear, hope to despair. – Howard Thurman VALUABLE RESOURCES If you’re struggling in a relationship and wondering if it might be controlling, you’re not alone.
