EP 19: How to end the sunk energy fallacy


Listen Later

Hey Lovie! Welcome to today’s episode of the Coming Out Gold Podcast. I am so excited you are here. I believe by showing up you are a woman ready to make some changes in your life. Ready to shake off the shoulds and start going after your dreams. If I am right in that, then you are at the PERFECT PLACE.  Pull up a chair and take your seat at the table because today we are tackling something called sunk energy. This term is new to me, but I have lived it more times than I can count. I believe you are going to recognize it as well so let's dig in.

If you feel like you are pouring time and energy into relationships and situations that aren’t making life better, this episode might help you out so you can be a woman pouring time and energy into relationships and activities that bring more energy, are purpose-filled, and with healthy boundaries.

I believe women want to invest in what they value. They want to invest in relationships with people they love and champion. They want to BE loved and championed. They want a life spent pouring out their gifts into the world to make it a better place - for themselves, their people, and the world. They want to matter and they want what they do to matter.  There aren’t enough hours in the day to get it all done to sink more into areas not bearing fruit.  It is wrong to stay stuck in an unhealthy circumstance or relationship based solely on the fact that you’ve already invested so much time and energy.

Here's what I am sure of:  If I can walk away from a 20-year marriage and come out the other side more sure of who I am and what I deserve, you can walk away from whatever it is you have sunk energy into that you know isn’t bearing fruit. And you will be better, stronger, and more powerful than you can even imagine.

We can do this in three simple steps:

  1. Spend time evaluating relationships and circumstances in your life where you are investing time and energy.
  2. Be honest with yourself when determining if there are somewhere your time and energy aren’t yielding anything.
  3. Make a plan for extracting yourself from that situation.
  4. Follow these three steps and begin taking back your time and energy so you can move towards a life you love.

    Listen to today's episode and be willing to ask yourself some hard questions.  I created a free pdf of questions for you to use to do this.

    You can be a woman who pours time and energy into relationships and activities that bring more energy, are purpose-filled, and have healthy boundaries.  I can help you get clear on where it is you want to go and create a plan for moving forward so you can begin investing time and energy in what you say matters most.  DM me with your thoughts!  I look forward to hearing from you.
