    New Beginnings Resolutions To Transform Your Life With Caroline Phipps and DJ Rick Schneider Aired on Friday, February 27, 2026 This segment from the Up and Running Morning Show on 98.1 KZE features Caroline Phipps, founder of Living with Inner Elegance, in a monthly conversation with DJ Rick Schneider. The discussion centers on personal growth, the significance of the Chinese zodiac’s Year of the Fire Horse, and the pitfalls of New Year’s resolutions, culminating in a call for mindful self-awareness and presence. Caroline explains the meaning of the Fire Horse (an animal-element pairing that last occurred in 1966), describing its themes of passion, leadership, independence, and adventure, while reminding listeners to harness that energy with clarity and discipline. She connects the astrological moment to broader cultural shifts and the personal potential for fresh beginnings. The hosts dig into the perennial topic of New Year’s resolutions: why so many fail, how thinking alone won’t create lasting change (quoting Einstein), and the pitfalls of guilt-driven, all-or-nothing promises like dry January or impulse gym sign-ups. Caroline reframes the solution: instead of external fixes, make a single inner resolution to observe and engage with yourself more skillfully. Key practical takeaways include naming and noticing your “saboteur” voice, creating a pause or gap before reacting, checking in with how you truly feel, and choosing disciplined, present responses over autopilot habits. Caroline offers concrete ways to step out of habitual patterns — especially when fear, anger, or self-doubt try to hijack decisions — and emphasizes that small, conscious choices in real time compound into real transformation. Ultimately, the episode is an invitation to treat personal development as a sacred obligation: show up, be present, and grow so you can better serve others. Caroline and Rick close with a call to co-create a kinder world and celebrate that every moment offers a new beginning.

Caroline is offering a chance to win a free consultation for one lucky person who reaches out — a practical next step for anyone ready to transform resolutions into real change. Key Themes and Insights Chinese Zodiac and the Year of the Fire Horse: The Chinese zodiac combines 12 animals with 5 elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, water), cycling every 60 years.2024 marks the Year of the Fire Horse, last seen in 1966, a year noted for significant social, political, and cultural upheaval.The Fire Horse symbolizes passion, leadership, adventure, energy, and independence, suggesting a period of transformation and new beginnings.The previous year was the Wood Snake, associated with shedding the old and embracing the new, reinforcing a theme of renewal. Reflection on New Year’s Resolutions: Resolutions are often made under exhaustion and pressure, focusing on weight loss, fitness, finances, or abstinence (e.g., Dry January).Many resolutions fail because they rely on the same mindset that created the original problems.Quoting Albert Einstein: “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking that created them.”Failed resolutions often lead to disappointment and self-sabotage, fueling negative coping behaviors. The Only Necessary Resolution – Self-Observation: Caroline advocates for a single, profound resolution: to take ourselves on by becoming aware of the internal duality between the “saboteur voice” and our higher self.The saboteur voice tempts procrastination, indulgence, and self-doubt, while the conscious self strives for discipline, clarity, and growth.Recognizing and creating space between stimulus and reaction helps avoid autopilot behaviors and regrettable actions.Self-awareness involves examining past fears, current resistance, and future anxieties, which often hinder change.Being present and mindful allows us to embrace change as an opportunity for growth rather than a threat. Importance of Presence and Mindfulness: Growth requires showing up fully in the present moment, letting go of past regrets and future catastrophizing.Emotional triggers (fear, anger) can lead to reactive behaviors unless observed with mindful distance.Every moment is a new beginning, offering a chance to transform thoughts, words, and deeds. Community and Collective Growth: Personal development is framed as a sacred obligation, enabling individuals to uplift others.Collective improvement thrives when individuals come together with dignity and grace, co-creating a better world.The alignment of planetary events metaphorically supports this period of transformation. Practical Advice and Recommendations Avoid relying solely on traditional resolutions; instead, focus on self-awareness and observing internal dialogues.Create mental space between ...

    Fate vs. Destiny Is What It Is What It Is?

    Aired on Monday, December 22, 9AM

    In this episode of the Up and Running Morning Show, host Rick chats with Caroline Phipps, founder of Living with Inner Elegance, about the big, timely topic of fate versus destiny. As the winter solstice and holiday season approach, they explore how people interpret the circumstances they’re born into, whether life is fixed by fate, or whether we can shape our own destiny through choices and actions.

    Caroline and Rick unpack definitions and contrasts—fate as what happens to us and destiny as what we do with it—bringing in thoughtful quotes (including Voltaire), historical examples (Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela), and complex cases like the Dalai Lama and the dangerous side of delusional destiny seen in figures such as Hitler, Stalin, and Jim Jones.

    The conversation moves to practical: how to influence your future, build emotional self-discipline, and create space between events and reactions. Caroline offers steps listeners can practice—pausing before reacting, strengthening the mental “muscle” of response, cultivating kindness and conscience, and choosing actions that uplift others. Rick and Caroline emphasize empathy, responsibility, and mindful choices as ways to transcend challenging circumstances.

    Listeners can expect an uplifting, reflective discussion with real-life examples, gentle guidance for holiday stress and relationships, and actionable tips for developing resilience and purpose. Caroline shares seasonal plans and ways to connect—she’ll be visiting the Renaissance Rehabilitation Center in Staatsburg, NY, on Christmas Day—and invites listeners to reach her at caroline@carolinephipps.com or explore archives at carolinephipps.com for past episodes and resources.

  • Boredom - Friend or Foe?

    Boredom - Friend or Foe?
    2025/11/24

    Join Rick on the Up and Running Morning Show (98.1 KZE) for a thoughtful Thanksgiving-week conversation with monthly guest Caroline Phipps. In this episode, Caroline explores the surprising rise of boredom despite the constant access to information and entertainment, and offers practical insight into how solitude, reflection, and choice can become powerful tools for creativity and well‑being.

    Topics covered include the paradox of being more connected but less inspired, the social psychologist Timothy Wilson’s study showing people would rather electrocute themselves than sit quietly, the differences between childhood and adult responses to boredom, and the dangers of always reacting to external stimulation. Caroline and Rick discuss how overscheduling and instant gratification can create restlessness, and why making time to sit quietly — even briefly — helps people reconnect, spark ideas, and make better choices.

    The episode also highlights parenting challenges around “I’m bored,” practical strategies for turning boredom into productive time (from picking up a pen to using drive time for reflection), and the bigger theme that we are our greatest resource — every thought, word, and choice matters. Caroline emphasizes the value of connection, collaboration, and creativity as antidotes to boredom and encourages using quiet moments for inward work and inspired action.

For a chance at a complimentary consultation, Caroline sometimes offers one to a listener; email caroline@carolinephipps.com.
