Whether you’re in the midst of a major life transition or considering a fresh start - I want to remind you that the messy middle that comes along with this kind of shift, requires a lot of self-kindness. One great way to begin to invite in more kindness with yourself is to be curious. To allow for questions like "what if" to exist and begin to lead the way. I talk about taking bold action in this episode - but I want to think of this as "curious & creative action". What answers are coming up when you ask yourself "what if?" Then what is one small action you can take to follow that curiosity that feels fun and creative?I share with you the time in my life where I was discovering this for the first time and how my "what if" turned into the discovery of new interests and the exploration of developing characters and a story for these characters to come to life within. I got curious and then I took action by getting creative in ways that were new to me.That led to new possibilities that would have not presented themselves if I wasn't already on this path of permission. I truly believe that possibility follows permission. Before I knew it - my life was evolving and a new chapter was emerging. What comes up when you ask "what if"?Then what is a bold action or in other words a "new curious and creative action" that you might take to explore your "what if"?In this episode, you’ll learn: How being curious, letting go and taking small creative action can lead you towards fulfillmentThe power of "what if"How permission and curiosity are an act of self-kindnessHow you have the power to change your lifeWhy it's never too late to start overLinks:Activate Your Goddess Era with Podcasting Watch this Episode on YoutubeMore episodes on this topic:BEGIN SERIES: How to Connect To Your Inner Compass (starts around minute 5:40)Ep.37 - Self-Kindness: Guided MeditationEp.176 - Are You Pivoting Your Career?
