Ep 131: Anchored in the Now: Gratitude & Showing Up for the Season You're In

from Trusting Dorothy · host Dorothy McGatlin

The good stuff is already in the here and now...  In this episode, Dorothy gets real about the beauty and the busyness of a season that's full,  Some people call it Maycember....soccer tournaments, dance recitals, baseball finals, end-of-school celebrations, and why that's exactly the time to slow down and anchor into gratitude. This one is a reminder that joy doesn't have to wait for completion. The process, the practice, the ordinary Tuesday morning? That's where life is happening. Dorothy also gets into something she sees a lot in the women she coaches: resistance to even wanting what you want. Whether it's a business, a relationship, a financial goal, or a creative dream, we can talk ourselves out of our own desires before we ever take a single step. This episode permits you to let those desires exist, without apology. In This Episode You'll Learn ✔ Why we tend to delay happiness until something is "done" and how to shift that ✔ How Dorothy's meditation practice taught her that the journey is the practice ✔ The connection between workouts, consistency, and letting go of all-or-nothing thinking ✔ Why resistance to your desires might be the thing quietly blocking your next level ✔ How other people's beliefs and judgments can sneak into the way you live your life and what to do about it ✔ A simple mindset shift for moving through seasons of change with more presence and peace This Episode Is Especially Helpful If... You're in a full, busy season and struggling to be present in the middle of it You keep waiting for the "big moment" to finally feel happy or satisfied You've been talking yourself out of something you really want You're in a life or season transition, birthday, summer, end of school, new chapter You want to build practices like meditation or movement that actually stick _____________________________________________________ Click HERE for the Show Notes.   _____________________________________________________________________  Ways to Work Together:  Within a 21-day self-guided journey to more peace and calm in your nervous system and life. HERE 2 Week Mini Coaching and Lift Library for 3 Months Details HERE Peace & Prosperity Coaching HERE   Loved this episode?
