Welcome to The Daily Ascent. I'm Molly Carmel — and this is the podcast I always wished existed: a bite-sized, on-the-ground spiritual note that can shift your thinking and your outlook on life. Because sometimes, that's all it takes — a small shift in what we choose to believe — to make the day a little better, and to make us a little more awake, alive… and ascending. Each weekday, we climb together — rising above the noise, finding the flow, and getting grounded in what really matters so you can live your day with more meaning, connection, and ease.2025 Desarrollo Personal Higiene y Vida Saludable Psicología Psicología y Salud Mental Éxito Personal

  • Ep. 116 | Why Lucky People Aren't Just Born That Way (The Science of Believing You're Lucky)
    Apr 13 2026

    In today's episode, I'm telling you about Grandma Bev — who just turned 100, sharp as a tack, the woman who opened her doors to my mom and me when we moved across the country — and the thing she said to me seven times over dinner that I haven't been able to stop thinking about.

    Richard Wiseman spent a decade studying hundreds of lucky and unlucky people and found something that stopped me cold: people are not born lucky.

    They become lucky by believing they are. Which means lucky is available to all of us — even after the hard things.

    Especially after the hard things.

    Question to carry into your day:
    Where in your life could you start practicing the belief that you are lucky?

  • Ep. 115 | How to Find Wonder in Everyday Life (What My Dog Taught Me)
    Apr 10 2026

    In today's episode, I'm telling you about Danny's first walk after two weeks of bed rest — and what it felt like to watch him encounter a fire hydrant like Andy Dufresne walking out of Shawshank.

    Mary Oliver wrote that the instructions for living a life are three things: pay attention, be astonished, tell about it.

    Danny didn't need the instructions. He just did it. And I couldn't stop thinking about how rarely I do.

    Question to carry into your day:
    What are you walking past that might be worth stopping for?

  • Ep. 114 | Why You Can't Rush Your Way Back After a Hard Season
    Apr 9 2026

    In today's episode, I'm telling you about something my mother said to me about Danny — my 75 pound lab mix who just had surgery and is currently on the mend — that I genuinely cannot believe I had to be told.

    It changed how I think about recovery entirely.

    Pema Chödrön reminds us that the trick is to practice gentleness and letting go — because whatever we practice, we strengthen.

    Question to carry into your day:
    Where are you not giving yourself the grace of a full recovery?

I stumbled on her Breaking up with Sugar book in a desperate search to find help for my eating disorder. All the many, many books I read and lifestyles I tried over the years worked so well for other people and their topics all sounded great, but in the end, I couldn't embrace a loving vegan or dairy free (etc.) relationship. I felt like a failure because other people kept getting success and I just couldn't. It was like wearing a shoe that was the right size on the box, but just didn't fit quite right. Molly's book was exactly what I have dreamed about my entire adult life. It was like finding the perfect shoe that IS the right size AND doesn't give me blisters AND feels perfectly comfortable like clouds. She summed up my problems, my life, my solution. A real solution. One I can hang onto and actually improve and start to love my life. Once I was done reading (and re-reading) her book, I wanted more. I needed more. I felt very alone in my life and my journey of healing - listening to her podcast has healed my soul. Hearing her chatting on the podcast makes me feel less alone. Molly, thank you for doing your podcast. You are the reason I am alive today. I am forever grateful.
