Description

In this unfiltered and expansive conversation, cohosts Laurel Holland and Laurel Boivin explore the many ways a “call” can show up in your life. Inspired by their recent reflections on stretching beyond comfort zones and trusting what feels aligned, they share real-life moments when saying yes to something unplanned opened a completely new path.

Together, they talk about how to recognize the clues that a calling is meant for you, why your analytical mind isn’t always the best guide, and how spiritual, emotional, and embodied wisdom play a vital role in navigating your next step. You’ll be encouraged to look back at the turning points that shaped you, honor the intuitive guidance that’s emerging now, and stay open to the ways life is inviting you forward.

This episode is a reminder to listen more deeply, both within yourself and in the unexpected opportunities that come your way, and to trust that each call is simply part of your becoming.

In This Episode:

• How giving yourself permission to dream bigger can open doors you weren’t expecting
• The ways callings can show up through invitations, opportunities, or moments that simply feel right, even if they weren’t part of the plan
• How to sense the inner cues and quiet inner-knowing that help you discern when something is truly meant for you
• Why slowing down creates space to hear your intuition and reconnect with your deeper wisdom
• How looking back at past turning points can clarify how guidance has shown up for you in the past, and how it may arrive now and in the future

Journaling prompts to further your exploration: 

1. When the call comes, would you know it’s for you?
2. How do you typically sense or feel a calling — emotionally, physically, intuitively, or energetically?
3. When in your life have you taken a step that didn’t make practical sense but felt right?
4. Have you ever talked yourself out of something that felt like a calling? What held you back?
5. What signals does your body give you when something is truly meant for you?
6. Where in your life have you chosen the safer or more familiar path instead of the one that you were called to follow?
7. How do you slow down enough to hear your intuition or inner guidance?
8. When you look back, can you identify moments that felt guided or aligned in hindsight?
9. How do you stay open to what’s next, even when the last calling no longer feels like your final destination?
10. What might be calling to you from within right now?
