Hello Creative,
Is it possible you could be dreaming too practical? I have been. I am ready to unleash that stifled passion. You, too?
I didn’t realize how practical I had been dreaming until I began another discovery mode recently where I chose to be in a state of allowing ideas, divine downloads and more to float from my intuition to my pen over a few weeks’ time as I wrote the thoughts onto paper about redesigning my life.
The intuitive directions have been coming daily. I just keep adding more words to the journal day after day. Along the way I was led to renowned lifestyle expert, author, women’s retreat host, and Tuscan Villa owner Debbie Travis and her book, “Design Your Next Chapter.”
Every word thus far is helping me dream more colorful and more expansive again. That question, “what if?” is now front on center. I am revisiting my dreams I had abandoned because life had taken its toll on me.
Does that feel familiar?
Each word on each page of her book (dogeared and highlighted) is like a soothing balm to my heart as these words validate how I feel at this point in my life.
And, I realized I am not alone. There are hundreds, thousands of women asking the same questions. Where are my dreams? How can I recover and reignite them? What’s next? What is my real joy? How do I not lose myself again in the hustle and grind of life?
For this week’s missive, I want you to dare to dream…bigger and more vivid.
Find music and an inspiring location to sit with these starter questions. Allow your intuition to answer, not your logic or reason. Maybe take a nature walk?
1. Where am I now?
2. Fill in this sentence: What if… (go for it)
3. Is my life fulfilling? If not, what conditions must be present to feel that way?
4. Do I want to feel joy more often?
5. What is my relationships status? Are they where you want them to be?
6. Do I have a bucket list? If so, what are my top 5?
7. What off the wall, crazy experience would I like to have?
8. What person, muse or public figure inspires me the most and why?
I am scheduling 45 min intro calls to discuss these questions with you. My NEW Follow Your Joy Life Design coaching is soon to be launched. Let’s get you in the door. Email support@marladiann.com to schedule your complimentary call.
To your next chapter,
Marla
