Today we're talking about what keeps us going when we feel disconnected from our path and our deeper sense of purpose. Even Mother Teresa had days like these! 

What are the key ingredients we want to be cultivating when it comes to our healing? What is the right framework to use when we're feeling off course and overwhelmed? When we forget our mission, what can help us to remember and recommit to it?

Let's talk about it! Join the convo! And check out all the goodies in addition to the podcast, to support you along your journey at: marywelch.com

Here's a little inspiration for you, if you ever find yourself standing next to your magic instead of in it.

The end of summer is a great time to take stock and recalibrate as we aim to move ever more into close alignment with the destiny we came here to fulfill. 

Sometimes a metaphor has a powerful way of making us think about our lives in new ways or to open new pathways of seeing. I'm sharing one today that I hope will do just that! Hope you'll listen and enjoy!

Do you struggle with summertime FOMO? That feeling where the profound beauty and brevity of this season gut punches you and you fear that you’re failing at squeezing every last drop out of the loveliest time of year? Or checking all the boxes of impossibly precious and special things one is expected to do during the summer? 

If this resonates, this episode is for you!

I'm sharing some personal writing on the idea of the anti-fomo summer. A summer where going slow, having some solitude and letting the unfolding unfold are the only goals on the radar. And being totally ok with that.

We will never appease the ‘out of control’ fear by reassuring ourselves that we’re in control. Because that is a lie. And the body knows a lie when it hears one. 

When confronted by how terrifyingly little control we actually have inside our lives, the best thing we can offer ourselves is compassion. And refuge in the present moment.

The answer to being out of control is not control. It’s surrender. It’s an acknowledgement: 'Oh yes, I’m suffering right now because I’m working against my nature. I’m trying to do a job that is above my pay grade.'

We're talking about all of this and more on today's show. Please tune in and give a listen! Lots of juicy insights to take away and have a deeper think on.

We do not outgrow our childhood wounds like old shoes. We integrate them. They inform so much in our lives. It’s never as simple as: well, I am who I am. Today on the show we're taking a deeper look at all of this in the context of Sinead O'Connor's passing. Sinead wasn’t just an incredible talent or a trailblazer or a rebel or a feminist or an outspoken trouble maker. She was also an abused child. And that piece played a huge role in the way her path unfolded, as it does FOR ALL OF US who’ve grown from difficult childhoods.

Spoiler Alert! I don't know the answer to this question! BUT - even if we don't necessarily know where our thoughts come from, we can still make it an aim of our healing to deal skillfully with them.

This is what we're exploring on the podcast today - what are the different categories of negative thoughts and what are some strategies for managing them, given that we don't want to deny our feelings and we don't want to over identify with them either. 

Tune in for a juicy exploration of a complex topic. And: if you have a question you've always wanted to process with a coach, you can submit it to me on my website: marywelch.com

Many of us have been experiencing what it's like to shift out of a kind of collective ignorance into deeper levels of awareness over the past few years. This is a process that can feel jarring and overwhelming at times - to be confronted by the enormity of what one does not know yet or fully comprehend. Both on the personal level and the sociopolitical one too.

There is a lot of comfort to be found in one another sometimes, sharing this journey and the insights it brings, together. 

This is the aim of today's show - to reminder you, if you've been feeling alone inside the vortex of all the sweeping changes of recent years, that you're not alone. Not by a long shot!

I'm sharing a personal piece of writing I put together over the July 4th holiday and reflecting on what it means to live through a time of spells breaking, veils lifting, identities and understandings changing. All while holding the paradoxes of life thoughtfully. Not trying to be one thing, resolutely, or another. Learning to leave room for 'bothness'.

The art of letting something or someone go takes practice. Life gives us many opportunities but it's also important to consider ways of supporting ourselves, emotionally, through the process. I'm sharing some very personal stories from my life today as an example of what I've learned when it comes to holding on, letting go and finding the grace to acknowledge all the messy feelings along the way. I hope you'll tune into the conversation today!

There is no way to grow and evolve without changing. And yet so many of us brace against change and wind up stunting our progress in life.

What if we knew we could edit our stories? Toss the pages in the bin and begin again anytime we needed? 

When we regard ourselves as the author's of our own lives, we feel empowered to take chances. And that's where the magic is :)

Tune in to episode 21 of Love Notes From a Soul Coach for a deeper look at what it means to embrace chance and change and not just achieve our goals but achieve contentment beyond the benchmark moments; engaged with the totality of our lives.

Beyond what we "have to" do every day, in order to keep our lives afloat, there is the question of what our Souls want to do. Have to vs Want to. It's not always easy to strike a balance between the two. But it's essential. On today's show we're exploring this idea and talking about what it means to actualize our legacy work. This is the contribution we were born to make. The stuff we're meant to leave behind. Our little part that matters so very much to the greater whole.
