Ali felt stuck in reactive mode when we started coaching.
She was essentially just trying to get through the day and triage problems. She lacked direction and had no clarity on where to go next.
She had no idea what to do with her career.
She had no idea what it meant, to her, to be a "good" mom.
She had no idea if she should move to be closer to family.
No direction.
No vision.
No answers.
She was stuck.
At one point she told me, "Maybe I’ve peaked! Maybe this is as good as it gets."
Fast forward 8 months later, she’s in the middle of a job search, 100% decided on moving, and feeling present and happy with her kids at the end of the workday.
Her life feels proactive and controlled.
When we become moms, we end a chapter of our life and begin another.
It’s a season to redefine what’s most important to you (do you really need to say yes to everything?).
To decide what "success" looks like as a working mom (does it really mean spending more time with your kids?).
To prioritize yourself and see your needs as equally important to others (do you really want to be working after the kids go to bed?)
It’s a time when you get clear on exactly what it is you want and go after it.
Your brain is craving direction. It wants you to tell it where to go and what to do.
It’s time to give it answers.
