Have you ever had that moment where you suddenly realize that a career, a relationship or a direction you're going in life isn't right? Maybe you've invested decades, time, energy, money and finally have the epiphany that you're not exactly on the right path.

Today, we're unpacking how to navigate this moment in a powerful way that allows for a leap, even when it's scary and you don't quite know what you're leaping into.

My own recent experience is creating a pivot in the lens and container in which I work with women from health into leadership, personal & professional growth and development. As I pivot, I would absolutely love to pick your brain on your biggest challenges as a female leader.

If you're willing, I'd love to have a Leadership Coffee Chat with you. Here's a link to connect :

Episode Transcript:

Dr. Alex: Welcome to the Selfless Syndrome Show, where we help women executives and entrepreneurs rise through Adversity, connect to their intuition, transform their hormones, and get their energy back. This is the show where we go beyond asking how do I treat my symptoms? And instead examine how do I truly heal, transform my hormones, and change my life? We are here to bring you outside the box ideas, interviews, and action steps focused in the areas of health, relationships, and our career, all three of which have a huge impact on our hormones. My name is Dr. Alex Swenson Ridley. I'm your host, mentor, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and thought leader on hormones and work life balance for high achieving women. I'm also a wife, mom, and stepmom to four boys and a verbal. And I'm a woman whose own life experience and journey from Adversity and the resulting hormonal chaos to finding hormonal harmony has led to me helping other women break with convention and find the tools they need to not just survive, but thrive. Ready to dive in? Let's go.

[01:05] Dr. Alex: Have you ever had that moment where you realize, oh ****, I'm not doing the right thing or I'm not in the right relationship or whatever trajectory your life has been on is not the one that you really honestly are supposed to be on? If we haven't met, I'm Dr. Alex. Welcome back to The Show, a show that is probably going to change names here soon. But I wanted to unpack this moment where we feel the call to pivot because I've been through several of them in my life and just recently had a new one occur. And so I'm going to just kind of share what that journey has been like for me and invite you to look for or to tune into, especially if you've felt this call before and maybe have ignored it. Because pivots are scary and sometimes they are outside of what we have thought or identified ourselves at for our entire lives. And they can be something that we want to ignore because it's easier and stepping into the unknown is really uncomfortable. And I've had moments happen like this one in my marriage, one, my first marriage, one in I built actually a seven figure business and realized it wasn't what I wanted to be doing. And then I again in business just this last week had another moment where it was like, I'm not doing it's. It's not that I don't want to be an entrepreneur and don't want to be in business, but I definitely have not been doing the right thing. And in realizing that, I realized that's why business has been a struggle and I haven't really gotten things off the ground. And I've stopped doing a bunch of things that didn't feel authentically, like fitting what I me and what I wanted to be doing and creating. But I hadn't really taken the time to slow down and actually get to the root of...
