Welcome to Heal Squad’s The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week. This week, we’re getting off the Space Mountain of life and onto the kiddie roller coaster…taking the highs not so high and the lows not so low. Because peace isn’t about avoiding life’s ups and downs. It’s about not letting either one take you for such a wild ride. We talk about letting go of attachment to outcomes without letting go of effort. Sometimes you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince or princess..and take a lot of swings before finally connecting. The answer isn’t abandoning your work ethic or superpowers. It’s becoming more selective about who gets access to those gifts, while remembering that lofty goals still require hard work and persistence. Keven shares how filmmaking was a lifelong dream he pursued since age 23 yet his best opportunity and best movie came when he finally stopped needing the dream to happen. We also talk about helping elderly parents maintain purpose and stimulation, protecting ourselves from toxic energy, and even how Halloween, fairs and amusement parks have changed since childhood. This week, Kweenz, keep swinging, but loosen your grip on where every swing has to land. Work hard without burning yourself out. Enjoy the highs, endure the lows and stay present for the ride. Sometimes the breakthrough comes when you keep doing the work but stop demanding the outcome. We’ll Talk Shawtly!
