I KNOW There's Something More....

Last week I contracted with a new client – not so unusual in itself. The fun part was that she wasn’t really looking for a coach and wasn’t sure how her search led her to me. I call that God’s synchronicity in the world and it delights me every time!

She has chosen to enter coaching now because there is a sense that she is not living large enough. Sound familiar? She recently left her corporate job to pursue work that is “more aligned with my values. I want to help people.” She wonders if she is stretching herself in the ways that will most help her to grow. She is definitely feeling a sense of urgency – she has that “time’s a-wastin’” sensation.

“In case you haven’t noticed, there are an awful lot of forces out there striving to keep us in line. Living big means getting out of line. It means dancing the jig when others are waltzing. It means leaping out of the soul-numbing boxes we’ve been squeezed into. Living Big is being brave enough to claim your own truth, being bold enough to read the poem that is stamped across your heart. Out loud so everybody can hear. More than anything else in the world I want to live big. To claim my destiny. To make a difference.

Yes, there’s this insistent impostor who’s always trying to convince me I’m insignificant, that my ideas will never matter. But there’s also this other voice. And it knows better.”
(LIVING BIG by Pam Grout)

If you have not journaled before, I urge you to get yourself a beautiful new journal and begin. There is power and clarity in putting your thoughts on paper. Things begin to take shape and HAPPEN!

Here are a few inquiries to pick from to get you started:
What’s one change you could make that would give you more peace?
What attachment do you need to release in order to be free to live BIG?
If you did what you’re thinking, what would it mean to you?
What do you want MORE/LESS of in your life? Make the list(s).
What would you try now if you knew you could NOT fail?

Every day, you are signaled and summoned to embark on a journey
beyond the boundaries of all you have ever known. You need
only relinquish your fears, open your heart, and begin.

- Bob Savino –

Say yes to that other voice – the one that knows better – the one that is calling you into MOTION.

Blessings,
Beth
