We are coming off an extremely heavy year. As I write this, despite the ugliness and trials/tribulations of 2020, history is being made today - and there is power in that perspective switch. It doesn’t mean that we will ignore what has previously happened in our lives, the trauma that we have experienced, the loss that has occurred, or the frustrating pieces that may cause us to experience shame - rather redefining what those mean for us. Looking for opportunities to move forward and grow.
Growth is hard work and takes time. It doesn’t happen overnight. This month I wanted to bring you guests on the podcast that we're going to assist you in exploring what you might need in your tool-kit to define what your purpose was and grow in it.
We actually possess all of the power within ourselves to go in the directions we want to, it’s just whether or not we make the choice to push through, do the hard stuff and get there. As I’ve said before there is no magic formula or get rich quick scheme. While yes, I recognize that is an incredibly privileged statement to say, yes there are systems that work as blocks for some to not move forward - let’s break that down a bit more. As history is made today with Madame Vice President Kamala Harris being sworn in as the first of two accords - female and woman of color Vice President of the United States of America; what if she let her comfort and doubt win — would our little girls know that was possible for them too? How do we live out our purpose if we only listen to the negativity? If we only see the obstacle and say there isn’t a way around? There is. We need each other and we need the ability to be creative. After all - Kamala and many others who are firsts didn’t get there without looking at every obstacle creatively.
On today’s episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Fabiana Peterson a Brain-Life Coach. She brings true-life experience as well as certification and education to be able to talk to us about exploring more of our mindset to impact our purpose. She brings exactly the element I discussed above about creativity alive in our discussion. No creativity isn’t just the stroke of a paintbrush to a canvas (that is beautiful) it is also how we approach different situations in our lives.
“Creativity creates opportunities.
Comfort blocks us from opportunities.”
Fabiana believes that we can change our mindset. Which impacts our overall health and wellness - basically our LIFE. After all do you really want to live in a space that is meh - or do you want to experience life to YOUR fullest? She shares with us tips about how to transform your brain’s perspective - no we aren’t talking blindly being positive aka toxic positivity, we are talking about switching your brain. Here is what she says:
What are the areas of your life that you want to impact?
What are your wants and wishes for that?
Then at the end of every day, ask yourself, how have I lived these out. Again it is more about the vision of how we want our lives to be - the experience.
If you are feeling like you may have something in your life that is affecting you in a way that doesn’t fill you up right now - may you know it’s a difficult conversation you have to have, a new job you want but are scared to pursue, a toxic relationship you are in, an environment that isn’t serving you must listen to today’s episode with Fabiana Peterson.
Than after listening, if you define that you need to work more on your understanding of your financial wellness - stop living in denial of where you are, understand your wealth, and stop making excuses for being to busy to understand how your money works as a tool to live your life in purpose and on purpose - schedule time for your Wealth Assessment with me.
