P.S. If you’ve already got one foot out the door… with the noise of your Fear & Doubts honking outside… convincing you to leave your Hopes & Dreams behind, there is still hope. Please don’t give up GF!

You may see all kinds of ‘evidence’ why your interests & goals are unrealistic, silly, self-indulgent, impossible, frivolous, (insert your own personal list of lies), but can we question this? Is any of this actually true?

Where do you land on your own priority list? On a daily basis?

Does exhaustion (from doing for others first) leave you with nothing for yourself? Do you struggle to find the time & energy to do the basics? (omg showering is such a chore.. or is that just me?)

Hopes & Dreams.. phhh, who’s got anything left for that? Besides, everyone (including you) is so used to how you spend your time & energy that it would be weird & awkward to change it, especially to experiment with something as useless as ‘hopes & dreams’. Yet… they keep calling, edging into your imagination & curiosity.

So, who actually decides? Whose choice is it if you want to try something on for size? You know, see how it feels to pick up a paintbrush or strap on a snowboard (or parachute!) or plant a garden or write a book or whatever your heart yearns for (or all of the above!). Who actually decides? AND do you really owe anyone an explanation? Do you owe anyone superhuman strength & sacrifice? Do you owe anyone a full list of credible reasons why you want to try something? (Hint: the answer is a big fat NO!).

Repeat after me: “I’LL F*CKIN DECIDE!” (fist pump optional, but highly recommended!)

Hmm, now what? You’re feeling all “Hell Yeah”!! and then you look at your calendar and groan. Where the heck am I supposed to fit in time for “hopes & dreams”? That’s when the honking starts again and you pick up your bag overflowing with responsibilities and head for the door .. again.. You know where the story will end if you keep walking away. Please pause to consider the regrets and resentments you’re collecting on your current path.

It’s not too late to try. Can you take one small action toward your dreams? Acknowledging them counts! Start a note in your phone (or on the back of a napkin) listing some that come to mind. Don’t discount them or second-guess, just start dropping them in there. Nobody else has to see it (for now). We’ll get to the part later where sharing them puts the process on steroids – but I’m getting ahead of myself.

Don’t give up on what you want most. You are not alone. I can help you make sh*t happen! Get started now with my books. They’re full of simple steps, inspiring stories, journal prompts (& pages) to pump up your manifesting muscles. Find them on Amazon, in Chapters and local stores. Want to work 1:1 with me?

And hey - I believe in you!
