What if, when you woke up every day, you had that moment of brief confusion and then your life came rushing in and you remembered all the incredible things you were going to do that day. You smiled a small smile to yourself and couldn\u2019t wait to get the day started?<\/p>

If you are waking up like that, you may be part of a shift that\u2019s happening where women are stepping into their potential. Many millennials are carving out new ways of being because they don\u2019t want the work-until-you-drop lives their parents lived.<\/p>

At midlife, it\u2019s not too late to take a cue from other generations, or from all the women we see who are stepping out of their comfort zones and into their potential.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Here are the typical blocks:<\/p>

  • I can\u2019t make money at it<\/li>
  • What will people think?<\/li>
  • Not knowing how<\/li>
  • Looking like an idiot<\/li>
  • Needing help, but asking for help makes you feel like a failure<\/li>
  • Not wanting to be vulnerable<\/li>
  • Not knowing where to begin<\/li>
  • Doubting that it can happen for you<\/li>
  • Wanting to know the end before you begin<\/li>
  • Thinking about it, trying to solve it in your head, going over the same things over and over, but never moving forward<\/li>
  • Living on auto-pilot without putting your energy into what you want<\/li>
  • Being too busy<\/li>
  • Waiting for the universe<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    So many of these so-called blocks are grounded in the way we\u2019ve come to think about the world and about ourselves. In coaching, we call these \u201cunderlying beliefs\u201d which are thoughts that you think over and over until they become beliefs.<\/p>

    The good news is they\u2019re just beliefs. And if they\u2019re beliefs, you have the power to change them into something that is more useful to you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Sometimes, it\u2019s just realizing that what you have isn\u2019t good enough anymore.<\/p>

    Other times, there\u2019s a life-changing event that makes you question everything.<\/p>

    Maybe it\u2019s a slow shift, a wearing down, a change over time that where you notice that you\u2019ve arrived in a place in your life that is unplanned, undesirable, un-you. At midlife, sometimes, we\u2019re just done with feeling that way.<\/p>

    Sometimes, it\u2019s a progressive knowing that you\u2019re living someone else\u2019s idea for your life \u2013 maybe your parents, maybe society\u2019s, maybe money\u2019s idea for you.<\/p>

    Sometimes, you have a flash of knowing, a clarity you never had before (this often happens when you loosen an underlying belief).<\/p>

    Whatever it is, trust that you\u2019re right on time. Even if you don\u2019t consciously know what to do, there is an internal guidance system, your intuition, guiding you forward.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Your desires mean something.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    I truly believe that we come into this world encoded with a path or a mission or a reason for being. That\u2019s where our desires come from. Your next step is derived from all the things you\u2019re longing for, interested in, have affinity to. For example, you\u2019re not suddenly going to want to become an astronaut or a carpenter (unless you feel called to those things) out of the blue. It\u2019s going to be something connected to who you are.<\/p>

    Maybe it\u2019s right next to you, calling you. But, you dismiss it because of one of the things on the list above. You say, “not that” because I can\u2019t make any money at it. What else you got Universe? And then you wait. And you lose your intuition and your guidance system. And then you\u2019re lost in the longing and following others\u2019 ideas, society\u2019s ideas, money\u2019s ideas (btw, I\u2019m never advocating that you give up money for your dream. We need money. You can want both and should have both.)<\/p>

    It takes courage to step out of your comfort zone and look at these things. But, what if, all that was holding you back was an underlying belief? And you could change that belief? That\u2019s what most of coaching is, changing those underlying beliefs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Clearing up unuseful beliefs is like clearing away a bunch of branches and brush that are blocking a path. Then the sun-dappled path lies before you, and what once felt daunting feels like the sweetness of being yourself on a path you can\u2019t wait to explore.<\/p>

    It\u2019s a big switch from feeling lost to feeling like you\u2019re doing what you\u2019re meant to do. To go from having a deep knowing that you were made for more, to being the kind of person who\u2019s out there in the world, doing the things.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
