In this episode, I break down what I call &quot;tiny tornadoes&quot; — the internal storms created by misalignment, toxic situations, and the habit of chasing conflict — and why owning your role in them is the first step to clearing the skies. If you're honest with yourself, you'll realize you're not just caught in the storm, you're often the one chasing it. Key Takeaways Tiny tornadoes are caused by conflicting forces in your life — just like real tornadoes are caused by conflicting temperatures. Being out of alignment — wrong career, wrong relationships, wrong environment — is what creates most of your internal storms. Small, repeated damage compounds over time and hurts you far more than one big setback ever will. You are often a storm chaser in your own life, putting yourself in situations you don't have to be in. When you take ownership of your role in the chaos, you gain the power to remove yourself from it and get back to sunshine. Action Steps Identify the areas of your life where you consistently feel conflict or irritation, then ask yourself honestly what role you are playing in keeping that storm alive. Audit your current environment — your relationships, your career, your daily habits — and determine whether they are in alignment with where you are trying to go. Stop tolerating toxic situations as &quot;not a big deal.&quot; Name the small recurring pain points in your life and make a plan to remove yourself from them before the damage compounds further. Notable Quote When you start being honest with yourself about your role in the tiny tornadoes of your life, you start to understand that a lot of times we're storm chasers.
