What if you could radically shift your perspective on stress, and instead of letting it control you, you could master it? In a riveting conversation with Lori Saitz, CEO of Zen Rabbit, and host of the podcast 'Fine is a 4-Letter Word', we uncover the power of staying grounded in the midst of chaos.
In this enlightening conversation, I had the pleasure of hosting Lori Saitz, CEO of Zen Rabbit and host of the podcast 'Fine is a 4-Letter Word'. Listen in as Lori shares her journey from marketing expert to stress eradication specialist, discussing the significant impact stress has on our physical and mental health. She shares tips on how to remain grounded in stressful situations, underlining the power of meditation and yoga to help foster a more relaxed state. Lori's firm belief in the possibility of reversing the effects of stress hormones and increasing the feel-good hormones in our bodies is not just inspiring, but also life changing.
Our conversation took an exciting turn as Lori shared her personal journey back to meditation after a long break and how it equipped her with the tools to stay calm amidst chaos. She discusses the pivots she made in her business from baking to teaching networking strategies, then finally to teaching gratitude and creating the business Zen Rabbit. Lori passionately talks about the concept of 'Fuck Being Fine', and how it's about seeking joy in life. She asserts the power of positive thinking and how we, as energetic beings, attract what we put out.
In the latter part of our discussion, we explored a practical exercise designed to help us cultivate a more positive outlook by practicing gratitude. We discussed replacing the word 'but' with 'I'm grateful for' in all aspects of life to help us focus on gratitude. We wrapped up our enlightening conversation by discussing Laurie's changes to her podcast, why she stopped doing the meditations after the first season, and how she has adapted her show to focus on helping people realize that they are not alone in their desire for more out of life. So, tune in to our discussion and learn how to stay calm, centered, and healthy even in the midst of chaos.
