I take private lessons twice a week, have awkward conversations with my neighbors, attempt to decode the billboards around me, and most lately I’m into the Fluent app.
All very humbling.
There are moments when I feel dumb as a rock, trying to string a sentence together that not only works but follows Portuguese’s 100+ rules (ha!).
But here’s the cool part about my messy middle … I also feel badass and alive as I am learning, growing, and integrating—plus I love the experience of new neural pathways lighting up.
It’s all so far from mastery, but oh so, deeply aligned.
High-achievers like us despise feeling like a beginner!
I share this with you because stepping into your next meaningful chapter—whether it’s living in a foreign place, pivoting your career, or changing a long-held belief, pattern, or behavior—can feel wobbly at first.
Like you’re suddenly a novice again.
And that beginner’s vulnerability!? It can feel so darn scary that you might even resist stepping forward … even when you know you’ve outgrown your old identity.
Especially when you are used to being accomplished, in control, and delivering high-quality results.
But, your next chapter isn’t old-style mastery. It’s a soulful beginning where you show up real and more YOU, which eventually builds into mastery.
This is exactly what my client Cindy is doing. After 30+ years as a high-status nurse, she recently left to launch her very own Ketamine-Assisted healing business. She’s still helping people heal, but now it’s in alignment with her authentic calling.
Sure, there are moments when she wobbles—after all, she’s used too being a master at her old role.
But with my coaching support, we do the inner work to keep Cindy grounded and moving forward with momentum. And, day by day, she’s building her new business and starting to welcome her first new clients.
Is she wobbly some days? Yes.
Is she living her soul-aligned calling? 100%!
This is the sacred work of The Outgrown Identity Club.
If you are ready to embrace your wobbles with Self compassion and step into your next purposeful chapter that you LOVE, just send me an email and say “I’m ready.”
I’ll guide you there by being YOU. No mastery required.
