Next Chapter

Lauren Quacquarelli is a shining example of how it's possible to take control of your life and live it on your own terms. Despite the pressures of society to have everything figured out, Lauren decided to move to Italy and focus on enjoying the simple things in life. She learned that she didn't need to worry about having everything perfectly planned or pinned down - instead, she could just trust her instincts and appreciate what was right in front of her. In her own words, "Life is what you make it. Don't let anyone else tell you how your life should look." What a beautiful sentiment that we can all learn from!

Today, I welcome our first guest on the Next Chapter podcast, Bridgette Boucha. I spent significant time in thought about who to bring on as my first guest and Bridgette came to the top of my list because of the significant impact that she's had on many of her previous clients and her in-depth knowledge of finances and strategies to succeed financially in your next chapter.

Bridgette has her CPA license and extensive experience working in corporate roles but feels that she has gotten the most out of life since she began her own entrepreneurial journey. She found that the path to her next chapter was full of curiosity, self-discovery, and resilience, and shaped her into the person she is today. I value her input on this topic as she has successfully transitioned to her next chapter and knows what it takes to make it a success.

Bridgette will share some specific advice on these topics when moving toward your next chapter:

1. How, and why, to shrug off external validation to allow you to freely move into your next chapter

2. How your current assets can be used to help you thrive in your next chapter

3. How to create quick momentum to keep you moving forward

4. How to optimize and protect your most important resources (time, people, money, and energy)

Chasing your next chapter and creating a new life for yourself will not all be smooth sailing. That is not to say that it will be difficult, but there will be some challenges, both internal and external, that you will have to cope with and overcome.

It will be easier for you to persevere and push forward if you have already spent time in thought around some of these challenges. I am going to lay out four of the major hurdles that I experienced on my journey and offer some insight as to how to overcome these challenges.
