In this episode, Karl Staib and Dr. Jessica Higgins discuss:

• How building awareness of our patterns and tendencies will give us insight into our growth areas.
• Emotions can create connection or disconnection in relationship.
• Karl's Dig To Fly method and the 5 key questions to ask ourselves when we are having a hard time.

“Each day is "what it is" for 99% of it, and it is up to us (our attitude) to adjust to the world around us versus the world adjusting to us.” by Karl Staib

• In solid relationships, partners bond over positive things rather than negative things.
• Karl's SOAR technique for a daily practice of gratitude and a healthy mindset.

“We don’t need big wins in life to feel happy. Small daily wins keep our mindsets strong and make it easier to appreciate the big wins.” by Karl Staib
