Wellness In Every Season
Welcome to the Wellness in Every Season podcast, where wellness means more than diet and exercise—it’s about thriving across every part of life. I’m Autumn Carter, a life coach and parenting mentor, and I work with people who put themselves last on their never-ending to-do list yet continue to carry the weight of families, teams, and entire organizations. You are the visionaries, the change makers, the assistants who keep everything running, and the parents who pour countless hours into those you love. In this space, we’ll dig into what’s missing from your wellness routine across all eight dimensions of life—emotional, social, intellectual, spiritual, financial, environmental, professional, and physical—so you can uncover the fastest path to results that sustain you. Each episode is a reminder that you are already the backbone, the catalyst, the leader, the quiet force—and here, you’ll find the balance, clarity, and resilience to keep creating impact without losing yourself along the way.

Episode 128 Maladaptive Daydreaming to Visualization
Episode 128: Maladaptive Daydreaming to Visualization
In this reflective and restorative episode of Wellness in Every Season, we gently shift from the restless pull of maladaptive daydreaming into the grounded power of intentional visualization. If you’ve ever caught yourself escaping into vivid fantasies that leave you feeling disconnected from your real life, this episode offers a healing reframe—one that turns imagination into a tool for alignment rather than avoidance.
Autumn Carter guides you through a calming, full-body visualization rooted in mindfulness and breath. Inspired by A Year of Miracles by Marianne Williamson, this practice invites you to observe your current reality without judgment, then slowly transition into picturing the life you truly long for—the version of your life that feels authentic, aligned, and deeply nourishing.
This isn’t about chasing fantasy. It’s about returning to yourself with clarity, softness, and intention. You’ll explore how your dream life feels, looks, and sounds in all eight dimensions of wellness, and then gently anchor that vision into your nervous system with breath and presence.
Autumn also shares journal prompts to help you unpack what you’ve seen and felt, and offers a simple daily lifehack to keep your vision alive and active—even in the busiest of seasons.
If you’ve ever felt stuck between who you are and who you want to become, this episode offers a bridge—one paved with compassion, breath, and the belief that your dreams are worth exploring, not escaping into.
