Last week I had the pleasure of bringing my mom back from Nebraska after closing out the last details of my dad’s life.  We had a great road trip and over the 12 hours had plenty of time to talk about all kinds of things.  I had the opportunity to ask questions of my mom—is there anything you would have done differently? Any regrets? What does the future look like now? How are you handling this life transition after being married for 58 years and now that identity is disrupted?  We talked and talked and talked.  It was awesome.

Out of all the road hours my mom said the most profound thing to me as we discussed struggling to find our mojo.  I had told her I was struggling to “get back to myself” and she responded, “maybe, like me, you shouldn’t be looking to who you were before but to who you are becoming and move toward that.” 

Mic drop. 

She’s right.  It’s easy to ruminate about wishing we could get back to some version of ourselves when life was less painful and messy—but that version of us is gone and pining for a past self diverts energy from our becoming.  Our personal growth requires us to walk through the muck and step into our new selves.

I delivered my mom to the airport on Monday, hugged her and wished her a safe journey.  Her words are still echoing in my brain which is why I wanted to share them with you today.  I’m challenging myself to come face to face with who I am becoming and set up the new systems to develop the habits that support this next stage in my journey.  I have a lot of habits to switch up so starting small.  Back to basics—make the bed first thing; wake up on the first alarm; set out work clothes the night before to remove decision making challenges; food prep in advance; etc.

Consider challenging yourself as you move through life to clearly define who you want to become.  What are the key characteristics of future you and what systems do you need to put in place to support good habits to help you become this new best version of yourself. 

Each of us can find our mojo and a brighter kind of better.

Hi there.
We're Radiant Health.

As of January 18, 2023, Grant Blackford Mental Health and Family Services Society, two organizations that merged in April 2022, rebranded under the unified name Radiant Health.

We’re excited for you to meet the new us, and to get a chance to help work together on the new you.

How we help.

When you’re in the middle of it, addiction can feel like a dead-end road. We know for certain that it isn’t. Just like any mental health challenge, addiction is an obstacle on our path. And, with some innovation and hardwork, we can work our way around it. On the other side of that obstacle is a bright future with healthy relationships, purpose-driven life, and a profound joy that’s been missing for all too long.

What do we mean?

Like so many things, mental health is passed down through families. Through behaviors, mirroring, and conditioning, we learn so much of what we know from those closest to us. Oftentimes that’s for the better, sometimes it’s not. At Radiant Health, we’re here to help ensure that your family makes purpose and joy as hereditary as any trait you might pass down to future generations. With a bit of hard word, together, we can make joy run in your family. 

What is Better?

Better ≠ perfect. Better means a path of continuous improvement; of evolution. When we focus on getting 1% better, 1% brighter every single day., we’re able to see the joy in the moment, while feeling the pride that comes with taking the reins over your life and working hard on yourself.  Here at Radiant, to focus on your future, we move towards it one achievable step at a time. 

What is Better Care?

When we talk about “brighter, better care” through our specialized services it boils down to 3 simple ideas. First, better care is safer care. Our facilities and staff are trained and equipped to offer safe, secure facilities during any stay. Second, better care is a respect for dignity. We believe in the dignity of every human being and we treat each person with the same level of respect. Finally, better care is the pursuit of purpose. Our treatment is designed with the firm belief that every person has purpose and, through it, finds joy.

What to Expect?

At Radiant Health you can expect a warmth and cheer that are rare in the mental health space. We believe firmly that the commitment to mental health is a commitment to finding purpose, but also discovering joy in the pursuit of it. Walking through our doors is a simple and transparent process. You’ll begin with an initial consultation with our expert staff, developing a blueprint, and taking that first step towards incremental improvement.
