Thriving in the Transition

Episode 16 - Being Comfortable with Discomfort


Listen Later

This week's episode was all about "being comfortable with discomfort".  I was joined by friend and "well'practiced transitioner", Sarah Zadigan. Here's a quick recap of our conversation as it pertains to being comfortable with discomfort:

· Growing Pains – the mental pains of growth mirror the physical pains of growth

     o Continual Evolution

· We have changed the language of transition – that it’s bad

     o Vulnerability

· Practice

     o Mindfulness and being present

· Have faith in yourself and in your goal

· Surround yourself with people that will honor your transition

· “If you fail… fail while daring greatly” Teddy Roosevelt

· The opinions of the people NOT in the arena with you don’t matter

     o Sometimes you he to Marie Kondo the people in your life

· Express gratitude

· Choose to make the language of transitions positive vs negative

· Transitions are periods of vulnerability

     o Strengths and vulnerability are NOT mutually exclusive

· Be aware of the feeling of uncomfortable

     o Is it simply your growth

     o Is it that you are growing away from those in your arena

· Changing goals is NOT the same as quitting

     o Quitting means I’m not willing to put the work in

· If yourself grace and to accept the transition for all that it has to offer

There was so much goodness in that conversation.   I’ll simply segue by saying -  leverage these points and my conversation with Sarah to Thrive in the Transition.
