from Shameless Leadership · host Sara Dean
We’re at a time of year when people are preparing for transitions. Maybe you’re getting ready to send your child to a new school – or maybe his/her first school ever (tear…) Maybe you’re getting ready to send your child off to college. Maybe you’re preparing to return to school yourself. Maybe you’re getting ready for a new job or a new season or position in your current job. Maybe you’re getting ready to add a child to your family (I’ve learned I have some “secret pregnant” followers – sending you toooons of love, mamas!) You probably know by now that I’ve been preparing for IVF. It’s been a long process of preparation, as nothing happens quickly in The Land of the Infertile. I sat down to note the steps I’ve taken to prepare, as I thought this might be helpful to you as you anticipate a change or a transition in life. These are the things I’ve done to mentally prepare for IVF, but you can apply them to many other situations. I would love to hear how they might apply to something big you have coming up.
