Forgiveness has been a theme coming up in conversations and sessions recently, and I had a little download to share with you about it. ✨✨✨🤗🤗🤗

Happy Tuesday Everyone! 🥰🥰🥰 Transformation, growth, and evolving in life and business start with tuning into your intuition and not your inner critic. Intuition and self trust guides us and build confidence, while the inner critic keeps us stuck in fear and indecision. Part of connecting with and growing that intuition is understanding that your journey is yours and it has MANY layers and dimensions. The infographic below illustrates many of the ways we grow, heal and evolve, but the most important part is YOU choosing what's best for YOU. On our journey here together we're going to tap into all of these areas in time, but we'll be starting with learning how to tap into yourself.💫💫💫 You can call it intuition, subconscious mind, or even higher self, but being able to clearly and confidently do that and listen to it (not edit it) is a skill and we're going to be starting that tomorrow. Where are you at with trusting your intuition and self?? Be honest! We're all human and perfectly imperfect. 🥰👇 Also, has midlife made this better or worse?

Midlife is a word that brings up all of feels. So much of that is based on societal norms, beliefs and projections. 🙄🤬 For the record, I think this all complete 💩! If you're in front of it, you might think things like "old, irrelevant, invisible, past your prime." I know I did until I got there... and it happens sooner and faster than you think. Going through it can be confusing with all of the physical symptoms and emotions. You're going through a massive multi-year transition that is unique to you and the life you've led. We often stumble through the earlier stages chasing symptoms (and rightfully so because who wants to be irritable, tired, brain foggy, and sad). 😵‍💫 Addressing that usually takes the edge off and you have a moment to think more clearly. BUT, sitting in this space can be uncomfortable because all of the things we've shoved down, ignored, and suppressed come up. This can feel jarring, especially if you're someone whose had success and built your identity on it. I certainly did. It made me face shame, worthiness and many shadow aspects of myself that I ignored. Ironically, before this I would've called myself confident, worthy and successful but I realized this identity was built on performing and achieving to prove myself worth. 🤯😮 I had to be broken down and raw to reveal the real me. This was HARD. I spent the greater part of a month crying, shedding, rebuilding and evolving. And I had no choice because my body was forcing me to face decades of things I buried. It felt like treading water in a hurricane with a blow up life preserver.🛟💨 But I'm SO grateful (even though it SUCKED going through it). After the confusion and sadness from grieving who I thought I was, the real and authentic me started to emerge. I was becoming, and I refused to shrink and play small for others. And I choose to see this as a gift and a wake up call. When we get to the heart of it, we get to fully step into and embody who we really are and share the gift of ourselves with the world.

I took a break that I didn't realize how much I needed. 😂 Isn't that always the case?! I posted a few times while I was away and then remembered WHY I was there. And it wasn't work. I was reminded in the moments I stepped back and watched my family play together or when I took the dog for a walk amidst the beauty of the wildflowers and mountains how much being present and grateful is essential to our lives and wellbeing. That connection to our loved ones, the earth and the divine feeds our souls. And that's what the heart of this community is. Connection, support, and guidance as we evolve and expand in midlife. Confidence and clarity are outcomes of this journey, and only a piece of the puzzle. So, I've been working behind the scenes to both refine and expand what is offered here, but this is where I need YOUR help. Over my 2 decades of working with women, I realized the magic of what I do is guiding successful women to stop living from the identity they built to survive and start leading from the woman they've become. The gift is that you stop living from a version of yourself that no longer fits. There's no longer an internal tug-of-war going on inside. No more showing up and performing for others. You get to be YOU. All of you. With no explanations necessary! Here is my ask. Let me know what ways you can best be served and how. I'm going to put a bunch of poll options down. Vote for your favorite, and then in the comments respond with anything else that sounds good from the list and feel free to offer up ideas too. 🙏 I've got the new version of this space almost ready to launch and I'm so excited to share it with with you all. 💖

Since we have so many new members this week, let's do something fun! Drop a GIF or an emoji that represents where you live and we'll guess. Also, if you haven't introduced yourself, tell us who you are and what you do in this post. Connection and collaboration feed our souls and build our communities. 🥰🔥
