Day 7 Gift: Journal Prompt-What's Holding Me Back? š
āWhatās holding me back from the life I really want?ā Itās a big question ā and one most of us avoid because the answer requires honesty, courage, and a willingness to tell ourselves the truth. But today, I want to invite you to do something different. When you sit down for your Sunday Reset ābefore the lists, before the planning, before the noise of the week ahead āgive yourself a few quiet minutes to ask this one question: āWhatās actually standing between me and the life I want?ā And then⦠be honest with your answer. Because sometimes whatās holding us back isnāt a lack of time, talent, or opportunity. Sometimes itās: ⢠People weāve outgrown but keep holding onto. ⢠Habits that feel comfortable but keep us stuck. ⢠Stories weāve told ourselves for years that no longer match who we are. ⢠Obligations that drain us instead of support us. ⢠Old versions of ourselves weāre afraid to release. This prompt asks you to pause long enough to see whatās really there ā not with judgment, but with clarity. In my own life (and in the lives of so many clients), breakthroughs have happened not by doing moreā¦but by letting go of what no longer fits. The relationship that constantly drains your energy. The habit that steals your mornings. The fear that keeps you playing safe. The narrative that tells you youāre not ready. What if the thing holding you back isnāt external at all ā but the weight youāve been carrying long after you were meant to set it down? This Sunday, let yourself explore it. Not to criticize yourself. Not to shame yourself. But to free yourself. Your next chapter requires space ā and clarity creates it. If youāre willing to be honest with yourself this week, this prompt can open a door you didnāt even realize was locked. So tell me⦠When you sit with this question during your Sunday Reset, whatās the first thing that comes to mind?
