been reflecting since we talked and realized that what feeds my soul is that connection with people i get through coaching: the deep listening, asking the questions that can shift their perspective, telling the loving raw truth that can help them unlock themselves. i realized i can do that with writing and through my blog & that has brought all the fun and joy back into my biz! thanks for sharing your goddessly wisdom!

@picsie chick…”Why can’t I make my living from the thing that saves me?” BRILLIANT!

Seriously though, I agree with all you’ve said, Kelly. We all need to keep pushing past OUR doubts. Damn, that’s hard. The challenge never ends. After a while though, with enough practice, it does gets easier to face the fears, and disregard the insecurity as if it didn’t exist. Sometimes it’s more difficult to do that than others, like when I don’t feel empowered. When I’m inside that space, I don’t make calls looking for clients or make major decisions. ‘Cause it’s like you said, sometimes “fear” tells us when to act, or NOT act. Because sometimes that inner voice shouting “STOP” isn’t fear at all. It’s our natural “knowing” telling us when all is in alignment with what we want. I’m finally learning to trust that intuition and be patient enough to wait until the time is really RIGHT. And yes, we could call that waiting procrastination, if the time never does become “RIGHT.” Well, I don’t wait very long go proactive. Fear of failure kicks me down the road!

Good post, K!

We must talk, indeed. You are chock-full of awesomeness that shines out of you like a lighthouse lamp, and there are so many ways to make it visible!
