I am on an early train to NYC. It's hard not to think about my former Corporate life. But things are so different now. I started the slow but consistent blowing up of my previous life. I left my job. I had no plan. Yes and No became words I used much more regularly. No explanations. I signed up for a coaching program almost sight unseen. Soon after, I sold my house. My dad passed away. My loving relationship ended. I opened up my coaching practice. I wrote a book (almost forgot to add this 😂). I crave learning and take courses to feed my brain and soul. I moved a bit away from my family and friends. So much of what "supported" me was gone. I was raw. Somedays, I still am. It is interesting to ponder that overthinking blocked(s) so much possibility. So much creativity. I had to suspend my previous rigor - that was hard. Today, I have a very successful coaching practice—a whole new life. I was willing to let go little by little of the old me. And I am just getting started. Maybe it is time to consider the next step in your life. If you are ready, I am here. Happy Monday. Donna Star

I wish you a happy, rewarding, and successful 2025! As you know, Success and reward are two very distinct concepts. Sounds like you are achieving both, and they don’t always occur simultaneously!
