The Daily Ascent

Author: Operation Podcast

Welcome to The Daily Ascent. I'm Molly Carmel and this is the podcast I always wished existed: a bite-sized, on-the-ground spiritual note that can shift your thinking and your outlook on life. Because sometimes, that's all it takes a small shift in what we choose to believe to make the day a little better, and to make us a little more awake, alive and ascending. Each weekday, we climb together rising above the noise, finding the flow, and getting grounded in what really matters so you can live your day with more meaning, connection, and ease.

Ep. 109 | What the Flu Taught Me About Letting Go of My Plans
Episode 109
Thursday, 2 April, 2026

In today's episode, I'm telling you about the time I got the flu, cancelled my whole week — including patients, which was not easy — and thought I had surrendered. And then discovered that the real surrender was still coming. Post-viral fatigue taught me that my body doesn't check my calendar before deciding it needs more rest. And the distance between the bratty scream and the surrender? It's getting shorter. That's not perfection. That's practice. Melody Beattie reminds us: "At no day, no hour, no time are you required to do more than you can do in peace." Question to carry into your day: What is your body asking you for right now that you keep saying no to? Want to chat about working together? Me too!
