Distractions and responsibilities can take attention away from keeping up with what’s best for yourself. Take back your power by setting yourself up for success ahead of time. This episode talks about turning pressure OFF and success ON.
If you’ve been listening for a while, you know I scheduled a colon surgery. What you may not know is that I’m recording some episodes beforehand so I can heal without worrying about whether I’ll have enough energy to do it later.
I’m here to spend quality solo time with you for EP170’s Wise Walk as we discover our True Stride. I’ll give a postoperative update in the coming weeks, but I decided to record several episodes in advance so I can heal and still show up in a way that feels aligned. While I’m healing, I’ll be prioritizing rest, recovery, and what feels supportive.
On our Wise Walk, I talk about the areas in our life where we can proactively do something to take the pressure off of us. We can give ourselves grace and space to do what we need to do. Come with me as we reflect on these Wise Walk questions:
-
- Which areas of life do you feel pressure about showing up for yourself?
- Do you ever find yourself in a situation where you have responsibilities you need to take a pause from?
- How are you managing these areas of life to set yourself up for success?
You have the power to proactively set yourself up for success and communicate your needs. This allows you to feel good and aligned in everything you do.
Set the example for what you will and will not engage. Tap into success with these Wise Walk questions:
-
- What are the areas in your life where you can overly communicate so that people know what to expect of you?
- How do you take the pressure off of yourself and others?
- Where in your life can you say “NO” nicely, and take things off your plate?
