Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this weeks mindful moment, Dr. Corina shares a powerful story about a recent conversation with a friend who seemed to have everything — the dream home, the partner, the businesses, the lifestyle — and yet found themselves caught in an invisible trap: a prison of their own mind.What started as a casual catch-up turned into a moment of raw honesty about what happens when we spend our lives chasing “the next thing” — and how that constant striving can rob us of the peace, joy, and satisfaction that’s already available to us right now.This episode is a gentle but profound reminder that happiness doesn’t live at the finish line. It lives in the now — in the process, the presence, the ordinary moments we often overlook while racing to the next milestone.💡 In This Episode, Corina Explores:The hidden trap of success: how having it “all” still isn’t enough when joy is always postponedWhat it means to live in a self-made prison — and how to set yourself freeWhy chasing the next goal rarely gives us the lasting fulfillment we expectThe power of mindset work and self-reflection in reclaiming peace and contentmentWhy the journey matters more than the destinationHow Corina applies this philosophy in her own full, beautifully messy midlife — balancing business, coaching, medicine, family, and healthA powerful invitation to check in with your own life: Where might you be holding yourself hostage to unrealistic expectations or outcomes?🔑 Quote of the Episode:“We really do get to make our own rules about whether we’re allowed to be happy. Why would we hold out on ourselves?”🌱 Ready to Thrive in Midlife?Dr. Corina Sims is currently supporting 12 incredible founding members inside the Opt to Thrive Midlife Reset Coaching Program — and it's already becoming something truly special.💌 Missed the first round?
