Ever been in a spot where you are going huh, what's next? You can't see me but my hand is raised.
Personally, I have felt this the last two months. I was wondering about a new haircut, getting further training in a new model, learning to run again after healing from a knee injury, seeing if I could start cooking more, knit bookmarks, take up going to pottery. The list was really long! It was interesting because there were so many ideas of where to go, and none of them felt clear. And they were all over the place! Personal to professional, like just scattered.
I realized it probably wasn't so much that the outside NEEDED a change, but something inside me was asking for attention so that I can be in a spot of readiness for change. So slowing down was the first thing. It was HUMBLING to say the least. There was a lot that I hadn't looked at in my own mind. That meant restarting my own therapy journey (yes - therapists go to therapy 🤍) and being willing to welcome the murkiness in.
Here I am sharing a bit of that journey. I am still not sure on any final destinations for anything. But I have invited more reading books into my life instead of scrolling, more openness instead of hiding that some things in my mind were bouncing, and trusting that I am listening to myself to let things unfold.
