Global Shift: Navigating A Path Forward

It’s important, imperative even, to keep the conversation open and ongoing in regard to the massive global shift we’re experiencing in our world right now, and how to navigate a path forward. How can we best navigate these incredibly-abrupt changes and continue moving through them while increasing our skill, ease and success?
We already live in a world which has seen more change in the past 20 years, than in the last 100 years, incredulously. As if that’s not enough to find ways to manage the inhuman demands we face in our time, we’re now additionally in the midst of another exponential shift, which happened with the flip of a switch when the Covid-19 pandemic began to hit this past Spring. So many are facing entirely new challenges working from home and juggling family and career, others are experiencing work cutbacks and loss of business, layoffs and job loss.
I ask myself multiple times each day: What are the traits and the tools we can learn, cultivate and implement, to be the most successful and resilient in the face of ever-shifting information, chaos and uncertainty? What can we do as individuals to stay on track, to show up consistently, confidently, and veer away from a fight-or-flight response, even when that feels like a natural result of such an intense time?
When we implement small shifts in our thinking and in our actions on a daily basis, micro-adjustments, we feel and witness massive results, usually immediately. This begins with the seemingly-nondescript routine in which we begin each day. This is the most impactful thing we can consciously do to effect immediate change: Create a conscious morning routine. If you’re skeptical, you’re not alone. When this was suggested to me many years ago by my beloved Holistic Health Coach, Fran, I couldn’t fathom the shifts in my life that have occurred just from consciously choosing how to go through each morning. The ROI (return on investment) is immediate and impactful, and truly life-changing. Test it out, and let us know in the Comments what you experience!
In my experience, navigating choppy, unrecognizable waters has been quelled by working with a Coach, a professional ally invested in helping me determine my goals, strengths, obstacles to my success, and how to remove them while staying accountable, head above water. I’ve worked with various Coaches in my life, and when doing so my physical/emotional/spiritual health and my professional success have never been higher.
I say this frequently: We all need a support staff to live our best lives. It’s within reach, and there are Always options. Don’t forget that. Nothing is as bleak as it seems in a tough moment…even if that moment lasts months, or years. A skilled Coach assists you as YOU uncover your gifts, your purpose, your path. A Coach is a neutral, engaged partner, a sounding board, a facilitator, a mirror for what we sometimes can’t see ourselves when we’re in the thick of the weeds of our lives.
We all need some extra support in the midst of this massive global shift we’re experiencing and navigating, as we forge a way forward. If you’re curious if Coaching could be right for you, please contact me for a complimentary Discovery Call. I’d love to meet you.
