Maria Mojo Mondays: š„ Finding Peace in a Sh*tshow World
Protect your peace like itās your paycheck ā because your mental health is the currency.
Hey Mindset Maverick ā¦
This Maria Mojo Mondays edition is real. Raw. And deeply needed.
The world may be loud. But your calm is power.
Letās not sugarcoat it.
Itās a f*cking mess out there.
You canāt scroll a headline or turn on the news without feeling like the world is spiraling.
Political division. Rights being stripped away.
Hatred masquerading as leadership.
Sanity? Nowhere in sight.
But hereās the truth that keeps me grounded:
š You donāt have to match the chaos around you.
š You can create peace inside even when itās a warzone outside.
And no, thatās not spiritual bypassing. Thatās emotional sovereignty.
š How I Stay Sane as a Yellow (and How You Might Too)
As a YELLOW, Iām wired for joy.
But that doesnāt mean I donāt see whatās going on.
I just refuse to let the sh*tstorm steal my inner sunshine.
Hereās how I stay grounded:
Gratitude is my bubble wrap. Every day I focus on whatās right - my wife, my health, my business, my breath.
I limit doom-scrolling. If it stresses me out, it doesnāt get my time.
I take inspired action where I can - but I donāt carry the weight of the world on my shoulders.
I go from a walk when things feel overwhelming (on top of my regular 3-4 mile walks down by the river).
I take a ride to the Oregon Coast - because the ocean energy grounds me more than anything.
I talk with my wife about whatās going on in the world and we pivot together, deciding that our peace right here and right now is our #1 priority - no matter what sh*tshow is happening āout thereā.
I still believe that things have to turn around for the better (thatās the yellow color code in me - some of you may think I am absolutely bat sh*t crazy for believing that. But thatās how I am wired.)
And guess what?
Your path to peace may look different - based on YOUR core Color Code personality.
š„ RED (Power-Driven):
You want to do something. Fix it. Lead the charge.
Your challenge? Not burning out trying to control the uncontrollable.
Mojo Move: Focus your fire where it counts - local action, smart leadership, impact with purpose.
š BLUE (Intimacy-Driven):
You feel everything. The injustice. The hurt. The weight of the world.
Your challenge? Not letting empathy drown you.
Mojo Move: Stay connected, but protect your heart. You canāt help others if youāre depleted.
š¤ WHITE (Peace-Driven):
You crave calm - and right now, the world feels like a blender with the lid off.
Your challenge? Not going numb just to avoid the stress.
Mojo Move: Retreat when you need to, but donāt disengage completely. Your stillness is strength.
š YELLOW (Fun-Driven):
You want joy. Laughter. Hope. But itās hard when everything feels heavy.
Your challenge? Not bypassing whatās real or shaming yourself for feeling down.
Mojo Move: Choose joy with intention - and let your light be a rebellion.
š§ Your Inner Peace Is Your Power
The world may not be okay right now.
But you can be.
You can notice whatās messing with your nervous system - and change the channel.
You can build routines that refill your emotional tank.
You can get support that keeps your spark alive.
And you deserve all of it.
šÆ Want to Know How You Handle the Chaos?
Take the free Color Code assessment and start decoding how your personality responds to pressure, change, and stress:
And if whatās going on in the world is stirring stuff up in your own life?
If youāre tired, angry, or just want to feel steady again?
Letās talk. Not a pitch. Not a pressure call.
Just support, strategy, and a safe space to feel seen.
If we let the chaos break our spirit, they win.
Protecting your peace is an act of resistance - and youāre stronger than they think.
š Final Mojo Boost
"Protect your peace like itās your paycheck.
Because your mental health is the currency that creates everything else."
Youāve got this. And if you need a reminder?
Iām right here.
With fire, light, and fierce love,
