Unfiltered and Unedited: Recent Episodes
Kevin Beckett
A podcast about anything and everything from parenting to aliens. Mostly about mental health and learning to be you, or me as it were.
I talk all over the place today.
I talk about being yourself, in relationships, with your family, with your friends, at work, in public, anywhere, just be you.
Find three things,
Things that make you happy
Things that help others
Things that make you money
Do them in this order, if you can find something that hits all three, you've hit the gold mine.
I go off on some tangents today, I speak on Reconnecting with others and the inherent good in others, not looking for validation because it will start to control who you are and practicing empathy and not sympathy because it becomes more about helping others and less about just feeling sorry.
I get deep in this one:
1 Not attaching emotion to things
2 Perceiving the world more positively
3 giving people the benefit of the doubt
4 Sending Love to the Universe
5 Meditating with crystals
6 What would you're higher self do?
Today I talk about being a beginner, enjoying the process of starting something new, learning as you go, getting to the end slowly so you are more grateful for the end product and embracing the struggle of being a beginner.

Five things to take away:
