New World Normal
We are questioning, disrupting and transforming "Normal" to something more sustainable and enriching for us all. Debbie Harrell and her guests are challenging listeners to rethink their current routines & habits, their "shoulds & have-tos" and live more aligned with their passions and purpose. We are sharing stories of individuals who are making impactful changes in the world around them, working to create a more healthy, holistic, and inclusive future. We believe that the power to create social, environmental, and racial change lies with the collective, and we hope to inspire our listeners to make positive shifts in their own lives that will then ripple out and create positive change in the world.

Tangents & Sidebars; Breaking Cycles of Busyness
Ever wonder why your mind constantly races, even when there's no urgent task at hand? Welcome to the first episode of podcast mashup "Tangents and Sidebars," where co-hosts Melissa Chureau (The Fully Mindful) and Debbie Harrell (New World Normal) kick things off by sharing a bit about themselves and how they navigate the cult of busyness that has become the norm.
How about you? Have you ever felt the relentless pressure to stay busy, even when your body is crying out for a break? Melissa & Debbie explore this universal struggle. Discover how taking a daily moment to disconnect and reconnect with nature can counteract the physical toll of a constant state of urgency. M & D delve into the societal conditioning that keeps us trapped in this cycle and reflect on the unexpected benefits of the pandemic, like reevaluating our delivery expectations and fostering remote connections. It's time to break free from autopilot and start living more intentionally.
Struggling to find balance between personal growth and the need for external validation? M & D have been there too. From learning of the wisdom of a "lazy day" to setting random phone alarms for self-check-ins to employing Positive Intelligence (PQ) techniques, they share practical tips for disrupting the rush and negativity that plagues our everyday life. Listen as they candidly discuss their own battles with the hyper-achiever saboteur and how chasing after certificates and accolades often distracts from more meaningful goals.
Join Debbie & Melissa in this episode as we invite you to share your own strategies for cultivating mindfulness and escaping the "cult of busyness." Tune in next month for another live session, as we continue our journey toward a more mindful and deliberate way of living.
