"My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style."
Maya Angelou
Is this really all there is? I am successful. I have checked all of the boxes to be happy. Now I am in my late 40's and I feel like I was duped. Bait and switched. Where is the happiness I was promised? And where the hell do I go now?
Ever feel like you are stuck in the mud? You made great progress. You even have the fancy rain boots. But you aren't moving forward. Not even sure what direction is forward.
I am forever grateful that I found my coach. I had survived the first year, as a widow, but my future plans were shattered. I could do anything that I wanted to do in life - and that was paralyzing. It was just more comfortable to stay in my unhappy place than to get out of the mud. That would be huge work. Huge yucky work.
I found that I could start with baby steps. Clearing clutter and things that didn't serve me - real and emotional. I can mow the lawn, but do I WANT to mow the lawn? No! Great - outsourced. Should I keep his projects? No, they don't serve me at all and make me sad. Craigslist and his friends here I come. Done. Item by item, chore by chore, day by day, I got unstuck. With help. And good boots.
We are the leaders of our lives. We get to choose if we want to stay in the mud or get unstuck. Ready to get unstuck? I am here for you. Let's find your way.
You bring the boots.
