Chasing Butterflies: The Power of Mindset in Every Pivot 🌱🦋 We’ve all felt those butterflies before a major moment—whether it’s starting a new job, giving a big presentation, or making a life-altering decision. It’s that familiar mix of excitement and fear. But as Ed Mylett beautifully explains, fear and excitement are the same inside our bodies. It’s all about how we frame these feelings and channel them into action. At Fostering Minds, we guide our foster youth and their advocates through this very process using the 3P framework: 1. PRIME: Just like Ed talks about vibrating at the right frequency, it’s about priming yourself for success. Your thoughts and beliefs set the stage for what’s possible. Foster youth and those supporting them must be intentional about the vision they create for their future. 2. PIVOT: Every challenge is an opportunity to pivot, to take fear and reframe it as excitement. Whether it’s a transition from one home to another, or navigating personal growth, pivoting is about adapting with resilience and courage. 3. PREPARE: The final step is preparation. Just as Jobs framed the future of Apple long before it was technically possible, we help our community of foster youth and advocates prepare for the future by setting actionable steps toward their goals, knowing the path may unfold in unexpected ways. Every great moment in life is preceded by those butterflies. At Fostering Minds, we teach our youth and their mentors to embrace them—because they are the signal of something extraordinary on the horizon. 🌟 How are you embracing your butterflies today? #PrimePivotPrepare #FosteringMinds #GrowthMindset #EdMylett #ChasingButterflies #FosterYouthEmpowerment #Resilience

Having navigated the foster care system, I understand the experience of feeling different and standing out in challenging ways. I've come to realize that being different doesn't make you inferior; sometimes it means you're stronger and more resilient. I've witnessed firsthand how changing our perspective can impact our journey. I've also witnessed the incredible light we possess and the strength we develop. Don't hesitate to let that light lead you, no matter where your journey takes you. #FosterYouthStrong #ShineYourLight #PersonalGrowth #Resilience #MentalHealthAwareness #FosteringMinds
