Navigating Stagnation: Insights from My Journey Through a Stuck 2023

Hey there, and happy new year!If you're like me, those grand New Year's resolutions can feel a bit overwhelming, right?The pressure, the urgency... not my style.I prefer setting intentions—no pressure, no deadlines.So, I've been reflecting on the past year, exploring what worked well and what I'd like to tweak moving forward.I've crafted a podcast sharing my personal journey through 2023—a year that felt like hitting a brick wall of stagnation and uncertainty.It was a year of deep contemplation and exploration. I can finally say I've shaken off that feeling of being stuck, though it took a good chunk of the year.As someone who values productivity and achieving goals (because this is what we’ve been told makes us valuable and successful, right?!), feeling stuck was quite the challenge, let me tell you.2023 marked my 40th birthday and a decade in the coaching industry. These milestones urged me to pause, reflect, and get very intentional about the direction I wanted to steer my life and business as I embark on the 2nd half(ish) of my life.In the podcast, I touch on various topics:Navigating as a highly sensitive introvert in business and lifeGetting engaged and growing through relationshipsThe essential lessons missing from many coaching coursesExploring the realm of psychedelicsMy frustrations within the coaching industryA rethink on social mediaTackling the issue of isolation for many coachesAfterward, I'd love to hear if any of my experiences resonate with you.
