Wanna Grow? Broaden Your Life!

As a life coach I often work with clients who feel stuck. I frequently hear, “I’m in a rut.” Or, “I can’t seem to get any traction.”

One of the first things I ask is “what does ‘not in a rut’ look like to you?”  Soon they are describing themselves as the most interesting person in the world.  The follow-up question is always, “how would you create that in your life?”  This is followed by a VERY pregnant pause as they realize to get unstuck means they have to get a little (a lot) uncomfortable.

Those who live life most fully are constantly learning, trying new things, putting themselves out there—getting a little uncomfortable. They are curious about people, places, and activities.  They move through life with the attitude of an explorer recognizing that even perceived failures have great fun, beauty, and adventure within them.  In order to grow and live richly, you have to broaden your life with experiences that are outside your normal.

“But,” you say, “I’m more like a meat, potatoes and corn life person.  How can I possibly infuse adventure into my life?”  Start small with these tips:

  • Grab an unidentifiable (to you) piece of produce at the grocery store and try a new recipe. The internet is your friend for this one.
  • Take a different route to your usual haunts—you’ll be amazed by what you see!
  • Talk to strangers in line at the coffee shop. Make it your goal to learn one fun fact.
  • Try a new restaurant—and be sure to take a friend.
  • Invite new acquaintances for dinner.
  • Ask the librarian to make a book suggestion and then actually read the book.
  • Investigate a hobby you’d like to consider pursuing.
  • Listen to your kids’ music for an hour.
  • Schedule walk n’ talk time with different neighbors, coworkers, or friends. Or join a fitness class!
  • Volunteer to do something you would not ordinarily do.

These are simple ways to step outside your comfort zone and begin making connections that will lead to the confidence and courage it takes to try even bigger things.

Now go out there and LIVE!  GROW! Broaden YOUR Life!

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.
