Are YOU standing at a crossroad in your life? Is YOUR life in transition?
How is the thought of transition-change affecting YOU?
Do YOU feel STUCK? Does the uncertainty of change and what direction to take next have you paralyzed? Are YOU doubting and afraid to trust yourself? Do you FEAR what change will do to your life?
Transition is about change a natural part of life. You know the saying, “the only constant in life is change?” Life is constantly changing around us, in us, through us, and about us. It’s inevitable, there are going to be changes throughout life. Change is something we all will experience in this journey call life.
Of course the changes we like are the ones easy to deal with and we look forward to! Then there are those MAJOR LIFE ALTERING CHANGES that turn our lives upside down, and aren’t so peachy. You know those changes like divorce, mid-life crisis, retirement, empty nest, major weight lost, career change, or feeling unfulfilled wanting change which lands us at a crossroad. Leaves us standing at the folk in the road feeling fearful of the unknown, unable to take action, held in a cocoon, separated from our self and life. How do you handle those? Do you face the CHANGE(s) – or carry them off in a shopping cart.
How do YOU cope with stressful changes in YOUR life?
Do YOU use SHOPPING to overcome challenges and OBSTACLES in LIFE?
Do you use shopping to VALIDATE your selfworth? Are YOU hiding behind the SHOPPING BAGS?
Is RETAIL THERAPY, your solutions?
When we find our self at a crossroad and our life is in transition the thrill of shopping and buying a hot NEW outfit, purse, pair of shoes, and even a fresh new hairdo feels good. The feeling makes us believe that no matter what is wrong, a certain pair of jeans, or whatever else we think we need or want at the time will make things rights. We get drawn in the pleasure of shopping; and it becomes the perfect distraction that shifts our focus away from EMBRACING and NAVIGATING change.
Are you ready to let your change bring about transformation? I want to help you revamp your shopping list. Instead of things I want to teach you how to get the things you need (positive self-talk and attitude) so you can create and live your life on your own terms. Change offers us the opportunity to transform. It time to letting go of ‘what was’ to embrace and reach for ‘what can be’, and to reinvent ourselves from the inside-out.
