Not Everyone Can Go Where You're Going

Join Me To Build Your Best Fall – https://buildyourbestfall.com/ You did the thing. You hit the goal I’d been chasing for months, maybe years. And the text back was a thumbs up and one exclamation point, and something in you sank. A very specific loneliness can come with growing into your calling, and almost no one names it. You’ve felt it more than once. When you work so hard to become stronger and braver, it can hurt when the people you love don’t always know how to celebrate it. In this episode, I talk about why loneliness happens, why it’s more normal than you think, and how to widen your circle so you stop carrying your wins alone. By the end, you’ll know how to receive your wins with more ease, less loneliness, and a little more celebration.
