The Power of Reflection: How to Integrate, Course-Correct, and Create Real Change

In this fifth episode of the 6-part InPowered Life Method series, Rudi Riekstins dives into one of the most overlooked yet critical parts of transformation: reflection and integration. If you’ve ever found yourself stuck, unsure why progress stalls, this episode offers a framework to help you pause, assess, and move forward with intention. Learn the four pillars of powerful integration—from micro course corrections to stacking success evidence—and discover how to become the CEO of your own life.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Real transformation requires time for self-reflection, not just action
• Daily, weekly, and monthly check-ins ensure alignment with your goals
• Feedback from others offers a valuable, objective lens for growth
• Course correction should be small and strategic, not overwhelming
• Tracking and stacking success builds confidence and momentum
• Your failures are not the end—they’re catapults for growth
• Integration anchors your progress and keeps you in intentional motion
