075 - You Have Choices: Building a Life You Don't Need to Escape

Find yourself constantly waiting for the weekend?  Planning your next vacation before one has even ended?  Stress every Sunday before the workweek starts up again? Here's my question to you: What are you trying to escape from?   If you find yourself constantly trying to escape your day-to-day reality, something needs to shift.  Comfort will feel a lot easier than discomfort, unknowns and ambition most of the time. We get used to what we know and come to believe that's the only way of doing things, and end up feeling stuck. Sometimes flashes of recognition will come along, and we might spot someone living life totally differently than us and wish we had that life, maybe it provides a glimmer of hope that there might be another way, that it could be possible for us. But most people continue to maintain the status quo and would rather complain that get uncomfortable.   I'm sharing with you some of my personal story to how I created the life that has me excited to jump out of bed on Monday mornings, the small shifts that added up in big ways, and how to love the life you have NOW as opposed to waiting around for some new reality to magically hit.  Because if you're ready for it, it's time to commit to the sh*t that matters to you, and say NO to everything else.   FIND EMILY Emily Gough Coaching Room to Grow Podcast [email protected] Instagram @emilygoughcoach Private Facebook Group: Room to Grow Podcast Facebook: @ Emily Gough Coaching   DON'T MISS… Want to chat more and do a deeper dive into this topic and get access to live videos, exclusive guest appearances and discussions?  The Room to Grow Podcast Facebook group is a judgement-free safe space to open up, and I'd love to welcome you in with the other amazing women in the group.  It's the best place to go for a little extra support.  See you over there!
