150 women from over 20 countries

Last month I had the great pleasure of giving a webinar for women all over the world. I had a blast, filled with gratitude for all those to chose to show up. The topic was ‘How to Create the Life You Want’, obviously a topic relevant regardless of where you live on this planet! During the past year, while navigating COVID-19, many of us took the opportunity to start to examine our lives: What gives us joy? What do we cherish? How can we create more space for more of what we want? 

Together, we started exploring the steps to take to identify and get clear on what we want. We won’t get very far if we don’t know what it is we are going for. Or rather, we might get far, but not in the direction we really want to go.  Many of us are showing up in life the way we are ‘expected’ to show up, so much so we might not even recognize what we actually want more of. 

There is a difference in contentment when we show up as CEOs in our own lives, over when we let circumstances shape our existence. As CEOs we have the power to hire and fire who and what we want. Most of us don’t give ourselves the permission to weed out what doesn’t serve us. Nor to plant people and activities dear to our hearts in the sun, ensuring a healthy watering schedule and the right amount of plant food. The good news is that it’s never too late to start creating a path to get more life satisfaction and joy, regardless of what chapter in life you are in today. You can always ask for ‘more, please!’

What’s your first step in asking for more?
