Before the holiday hustle begins, have you asked yourself this question?

What is intentional comfort, why does it matter, and how do we create it for ourselves?

Podcast episode alert! Take a listen to hear host Becki Fleischer and I discuss Martha Beck’s book The Way of Integrity and how we can walk the path of our own truth.

You may find that the truth that emerges is exactly what you need to hear most right now.

If you’re wondering if it’s the right time, odds are good that you’re more likely to err on the side of waiting too long.

Tell me: what’s the thing you want to put down but feel like you shouldn’t? What are you scared to let go of - or even to take a break from - for fear that things will fall apart if you walk away?

What would it look like to welcome in joy today instead of making it wait on the other side? And what would it look like to pursue joy today while also taking steps toward a more aligned life?

We desperately want to get to the part where we’ve figured it all out and are seeing results and have evidence that we’ve made all the right decisions. I hope, though, that we can find the gifts. 

What stories are you telling yourself about why you have to wait for joy? How can you give yourself some of that joy today?

It took me my entire adult life to figure out that I didn’t need to wait to be someone else to step toward my truest life and that there is no such thing as the “right” time. I finally stopped waiting for conditions to be right. I gave myself my own permission slip.
