Life Coaching with Christine Hassler

EP 513: Should You Keep Going After Your Dreams or Go Back to What’s Safe with Andi


Listen Later

In this candid coaching session, Christine works with Andi, a coach who left a stable engineering career to pursue her true calling—but is now questioning whether to keep going or retreat back to what feels “safe.” After years of effort without financial stability, Andi wonders if she’s chasing a pipe dream.

Christine helps her uncover the deeper dynamics at play: how childhood conditioning, generational fear, and the belief that success must follow a formula are holding her back. Together, they explore what it means to believe in your dreams even when external results lag, and how coaching isn’t just about marketing or money—it’s about embodying truth and evolving consciousness.

If you’ve ever doubted your path, felt torn between passion and practicality, or questioned whether your dreams are valid, this conversation will give you clarity, relief, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Consider / Ask Yourself:

  • Have you ever wondered if your dreams are too unrealistic—or if the “safe” path is actually safer?
  • Did childhood experiences or parental voices shape your beliefs about success?
  • Are you harder on yourself than you are on others you support?
  • Do you feel like you have “one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake” when it comes to pursuing your passion?

 

Key Insights and A-HAs:

  • Coaching (and many soul-led vocations) is a spiritual journey, not just a business model.
  • Our worth is not defined by clients’ results or financial benchmarks.
  • Childhood wounds and inherited fears can sabotage dreams if left unhealed.
  • Success requires both service and the willingness to receive energetic exchange.
  • Believing in yourself and embodying your truth creates alignment that attracts opportunities.

 

How to Deepen the Work:

  • Identify whose voice you hear in your doubts—is it truly yours?
  • Reflect on childhood dreams that were squashed and consider how they want to express now.
  • Reframe support not as “fixing” but as resourcing yourself for the journey.
  • Notice where you’re trying to make your path formulaic (A + B = C) and invite curiosity instead.
  • Ask: “What do I know to be true about myself?” and breathe into that truth daily.
