Happy Sacred Sunday!
If it seems like it’s been a while since I’ve popped into your inbox … that’s because it has been. I didn’t disappear intentionally. I caught a virus from my kid that has knocked me off my feet.
In fact, I am typing this email from the lobby of an Urgent Care, waiting to check on an ear infection that seems to be getting progressively worse.
This isn’t how I envisioned the last couple of weeks leading up to launching my podcast. I thought I’d be in full gear, high energy, knocking off items from the to-do list and making it happen.
But instead, I’ve been reminded of the very true saying:
Interestingly, the last time I got sick like this was in 2019, shortly after launching my first book into the world, Looking Over the Edge. I’m not nearly as sick as I was that time, but it’s the worse I’ve been in the last 5 years.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, some sort of synchronicity, or a lesson I’m supposed to learn.
I choose to live life as if it is rigged in my favor, which means I will make it my responsibility to find the lesson here … although I’m still too submerged in the weeds to make sense of it yet.
Nonetheless, the Bliss’n Up Podcast is LIVE, even though I’m feeling barely ALIVE 
.
In today’s episode I’m covering:
1. What to do when you’re stuck in the trying loop
2. What this podcast is all about and how I got here.
3. Why a life that sparks bliss is often about doing the things that have nothing to do with bliss!
As this day approached, I almost postponed the launch date so I could get better and have more time to “do this right.”
But the reason I didn’t postpone was because I wanted to honor something I work with my 1:1 clients all the time: overcoming the ALL OR NOTHING MENTALITY.
So often we’d rather not show up at all than show up messy and vulnerable.
That’s why we keep waiting until Monday to eat better, exercise, or start working on our goals. It’s why we keep thinking this isn’t the right time to declutter the house, confront the issues in the relationship, or start the program.
We want the circumstances to be perfect.
We think we need more energy, motivation, or resources.
We promise ourselves that as soon as we get through _______________, we’ll finally be able to tackle ____________.
I’ve been feeling all these things. And it’s why I waited so long to start this thing in the first place. Sometimes you do need to give yourself some time in the season you’re in.
But I also trust in divine timing and in my intuition.
I felt strongly that today, 5/5/24, was supposed to be Bliss’n Up’s kickoff and it was time to dive in — no matter what.
Isn’t it ironic that on the day we launch a podcast about “Listening to your bliss,” my right ear is completely clogged? I’m telling you, the Universe is teaching me something and I’m going to bliss’n up big time!!!
And I know you will, too.
I know this is a journey we’re supposed to go on together and I’m so glad you’re here.
Listen to the episode and please send me a note or leave me a review to tell me what you thought about it!
