We're All in This Together

The Power and Paradox of Wanting

Episode Description from the Publisher

Wanting can inspire us, energize us, and help us create meaningful change, but it can also bring up fear, attachment, and the possibility of disappointment. On this episode, I explore my own complicated relationship with desire, why we sometimes limit our dreams to what seems achievable, and how wanting more can coexist with genuinely appreciating what we already have. I also discuss how we can become more honest about what we truly want, pursue our desires with intention, and remain open to receiving what comes without making our happiness dependent on a specific outcome.   Resources: Mike Robbins Website (Newly Updated) Mike Robbins Blog Mike Robbins Podcast Mike Robbins on LinkedIn Mike Robbins YouTube Channel Mike Robbins on Instagram Mike Robbins on Facebook Mike Robbins on TikTok Mike Robbins on X Mike Robbins on BlueSky We're All in This Together (book), by Mike Robbins
