About this Episode
In this episode, Jim Ellermeyer invites you to reflect on one of the most fundamental shifts you can make in life: choosing to live intentionally rather than simply existing.
Together with producer Mike Sorg, Jim explores the concept of being a human being rather than a human doing, and how small mindful changes—like replacing “I have to” with “I choose to”—can radically transform your daily experience.
💭 Topics include:
• The danger of living on autopilot
• How “should” creates shame and anxiety
• The power of journaling and silence
• Letting go of digital distractions and negativity
• Celebrating small victories and choosing growth over comfort
You’ll walk away with tangible insights and invitations to return to your authentic self—one breath, one choice at a time.
