As a photographer, I can choose what to focus my camera on. I can choose to  zoom in or be wide-angle and take in the entire scene, or I can flip the camera  around and take a "selfie." As Moxie women, we choose what we focus on - the things we have, what we've  done and what we are capable of OR what we haven't, what we didn't and what we  aren't.  It's this focus that can hold us back from truly understanding what our  calling is and making progress in our lives.

We all have a calling and in our second half of life deciphering that calling can be needed in various forms. In this episode I talk about the different ways your calling might shift or change.

 At some point, we wonder if we have a calling if there is a real purpose for our life.

The answer is simple. Yes.

You were born with a calling.

Our calling is gifted to us and was written into our lives long before we were even a twinkle in our parents' eyes.

Realizing our calling isn't something that suddenly reveals itself, like a child prodigy who naturally masters something in a big way, but instead it's revealed to and through us in different ways and in everything we do during our life journey.

  That's what my story was right after my 48th birthday. My daughter and only child was about to graduate high school that June and head off to college, and we were excited for her. Our busy lives were already slowing down as we began that "letting go" process around Christmas time, but still, life was about to change - I didn't anticipate the unexpected way it would.  

  I discovered a new perspective and renewed purpose in my life that resonated through to my business.It was this reinvention that brought a deeper understanding of my "why" and allowed me to pivot to a new direction that holds a deeper meaning for me and reflects my gifts of teaching and encouragement.By looking back as well as inward, permitting myself to stop to understand myself deeper and challenge my status quo brought me to discover my "what's next."

 Welcome to the middle. The bottom of the "U bend" of happiness. Midlife.  

Being a Type-A "striver," who suddenly feels as if someone has let the air out of your balloon, it's frustrating and even horrifying to not feel like your previous, driven self.  On the other side of that "U" is a new level of Moxie, new freedom of possibilities to pursue any dream or goal you previously put aside, and confidence to decide what you choose to hang on to and what you let go.

 Life has changed and we get stuck sometimes. Stuck waiting for something, we don't know what. Ladies, time is of the essence and there's not time to sit back waiting for permission. 

 As children, we expect our parents to guide us - when it was time to go to bed, time to go to school, time to brush your teeth.   

Subconsciously, as adults, we still wait for direction and permission, especially in areas we might be less self-assured. We are conditioned to wait for the ok that we are ready, for the "right time," "right age," "right way" for what's next.

Is it any wonder we feel stuck in areas of our lives?!
