About this Episode:
Have you ever felt like you're no longer participating in life? No longer spending time with friends? No longer working on goals? Unmotivated? Unhappy? Maria Paz was in that place, which she described as a dark, gloomy pit of unhappiness. In this episode Maria shares the mindset tools she used to bring more light into her life so she could leave depression behind.
What You'll Learn in this Episode:
- Why you must put yourself first in order to have a thriving family.
- How to switch your thoughts from negative to positive.
- Why showing up authentically in the world - with your own beliefs and values rather than somebody else's - will make you and everyone around you happier.
- How focusing on the Wheel of Happiness can add massive amounts of light and positivity to our lives.
- And much more!

| 0:00.0 | You're listening to the Vibrant Happy Women Podcast, episode number 117, all about finding the light again after depression. |
| 0:09.1 | Stay tuned. |
| 0:10.7 | Welcome to the Vibrant Happy Women Podcast, stories of vibrant women living happy lives. |
| 0:17.1 | And now your host, Jen Ryday. |
| 0:23.8 | Hey there. Welcome back to Vibrants, happy women. I'm your host, Dr. Jen Ridey. And this is the place |
| 0:29.8 | to be if you want to find you again. If you've given everything for everyone else and you feel |
| 0:34.8 | like you're on a hamster wheel running and running and running and you want to stop and see where in the world you're even trying to go and to understand |
| 0:42.3 | what your purpose might be, what you might be born to do on this earth and just to feel a little |
| 0:46.9 | more balanced doing it. So welcome to the show. Last week, I had the honor and privilege of |
| 0:53.4 | chatting with Gretchen Rubin, author of the Happiness Project and the Four Tendencies and so many other great books. |

| 1:29.8 | the Vibrins Happy Women podcast. As a member of the club, you'll get to meet virtually with about |
| 1:35.9 | a dozen other women from around the U.S. and around the world and discuss podcast episodes, |
| 1:41.0 | discuss what it means in your life and especially to hold each other accountable so you |
| 1:45.0 | can take action. When you're in a group of like-minded women, your growth happens much more quickly |
| 1:51.1 | because you know someone is there paying attention to whether you're going to do what you said |
| 1:55.7 | you're going to do. And you get to reflect and hear that, hey, you're not alone in your struggles. |
