Have you ever downplayed your own work because it wasn't as good as someone else's?

Or changed your mind about submitting something, cooking something, doing something because you believed what you could give wasn't very good?

These are symptoms of the "I am not enough" way of life. And it's this thinking that will cause you to become smaller and smaller as you get older.

Midlife is the time to take a good hard look at this because you don't want to spend the rest of your life withdrawing, feeling 'less than'.

Needing to know that you're competent is a key component to having good self-esteem. In this podcast we talk about 3 ways you can build your belief in yourself.

Wisdom from the podcast:

"So step back. Be the friend, the mom, the boss you wish you could have had. Say the same things to yourself that you wished you would have heard from them."

WHAT IF Midlife were actually a Call To Adventure?

The only way you hear that Call is to connect to that very quiet place deep inside of you. That's where you'll find your heart.

This is a powerful place. A place from which you can learn to be yourself...shut out the noise of what everyone else thinks you should be, tells you to be.

The Call challenges us to look deeper into how life has been molding us, preparing us for this time just ahead. A new phase. Midlife.

Find the answers to that calling and everything else will fall into place. 

Purpose becomes the reason for our lives and the foundation we can use to make all our decisions and choices for the rest of our lives.

You have so much to offer, and the world needs what you have to give.

It's never too late to find a new purpose. A new reason for living.

Let's look at how that can be done. Come on in or download the transcript.

Your heart is the most beautiful thing about you. And in that beautiful heart, you'll find every need that shows you how to find your passion and purpose.

The 2nd need of your heart is SIGNIFICANCE. To know and value who I am.

YOU who have walked through life with all of its hills and valleys, challenges and disasters.
