In this uplifting episode, of Dr. Davina's Dots, Dr. Davina shares a powerful reminder that growth doesn’t happen all at once, it happens one small, intentional step at a time.

We often feel the pressure to change everything overnight, our routines, our mindset, our life. But trying to do it all at once can leave us overwhelmed and exhausted.

Through gentle guidance and practical wisdom, she explores how small, consistent actions can lead to lasting transformation. She discussed:

• Reconnecting with your why
• Being kind to yourself when progress feels slow
• Celebrating your growth no matter how small
• 
  

Because sometimes the most meaningful progress isn’t found in giant leaps, but in the quiet courage of your next small step.

Tune in to feel encouraged and inspired to keep moving forward, one step at a time.

Today, Dr. Davina explores a habit we all fall into: resisting spontaneity. We tend to cling to routines, schedules, and plans because the unknown feels risky, uncertain, and uncomfortable. But what if avoiding spontaneity is keeping us from the very opportunities we’re longing for? Dr. Davina reminds us that spontaneity isn’t about being reckless, it’s about being open. When you step outside of routine, you step into possibility. In those unplanned moments, doors open, connections are made, and opportunities appear that you never could have scripted.

She also challenges the belief that safety and predictability equal success. Instead, she explains how the courage to say “yes” to the unexpected can unlock creativity, spark new relationships, and reveal paths you didn’t even know existed. Spontaneity doesn’t remove the unknown, it transforms it into potential.

In this episode of Dr. Davina’s Dots, you’ll hear a spoken message paired with soothing jazz designed to help you pause, reflect, and reimagine what’s possible when you embrace the unplanned. This reflective mix of words and music will encourage you to let go of resistance, open yourself to spontaneity, and discover new paths of creativity, connection, and courage.
