Challenges are opportunities in disguise
Is something nagging you?
Something you regret? Something that didn’t go as you would have liked or hoped? Something you didn’t achieve?
I know you’ve got beautiful bold dreams for yourself. And sometimes when you start taking steps towards it, something unexpected happens. You get disappointed, and start feeling like you’re not doing enough.
When a challenge arises, it can feel like a set down. It might actually be a disguise,
I invite you to look again, and see how this particular challenge that is coming your way is here to support you.
Believe that there is something about this thing that happened or didn’t happen that actually is supporting you right now.
Fall is coming here in the Northern hemisphere. The invitation is clear: to let go, and make space for new.
Here are some questions that may help your process:
Why did this need to happen the way it did?
How did this allow me to grow?
What is this forcing me to learn?
What am I gaining from this process?
As n’betweeners we can place so much pressure on ourselves, and how we perceive our lives should be, and look for our failures.
There can be an expectation of growth and change to look in a particular way. But unfortunately we let go of our dreams, and what most matters to you.
You deserve to be held in your DREAMS
To have a community support you as you navigate the challenges that can be so terrifying to be in. This is what The nest is for. A space to remind you of your brilliance as you move towards what most matters to you and simultaneously terrifies you. Here is something that one of my teachers Lisa Dion recently said:
“Failure is a byproduct of not appreciating reality.”
Can you appreciate what is coming to you? What life is inviting you to see at this moment.
You don’t know how the "bad" or "annoying" thing might actually serve you. You want to *believe* that you know best, but in think about the millions of times that something that didn't seem to serve you actually shifted with time.
You don’t know what is to come.
What if you lived a life with no regrets? Even the things that have hurt you and the people you love the most have something to offer. In these spaces of pain or disappointment, we grow exponentially.
It might sounds cliché, but I promise, everything is working out for you.
If you want to be held accountable to your dreams, do yourself a favor and join The nest.
It's your responsibility to look and find the blessing and learnings in the process. It will liberate you, I promise.
Sending you a hug
