Let's reflect: Are your intentions coming to fruition?
Hello from a busy September. Over here at my house we have been living through a storm of stuffy noses, coughs and even a scooter fall at the skatepark that was more dramatic for me than for my little one who had the bloody, scarped up face.
Seeing your kids sick or hurt is truly the hardest… sometimes I wish I could just wrap them up in bubblewrap. Motherhood is truly the most emotionally intense experience in so many ways. I will either emerge from it mega resilient or completely destroyed haha… hoping for the first;)
How is your fall season starting off? Do you notice that your mood is shifting?
Now that we are officially moving into fall, my mood is also becoming a little more introspective and reflective.
I like to take this time of the year –post summer but with still enough time left in the year to take action– to look back on what intentions I planted in the Spring time and how they have come to fruition over the summer months.
What ideas, goals, and intentions did you plant?
Which ones clarified, grew, and evolved?
What are you harvesting now?
What still needs more energy, tending to, and refinement?
Personally, I like to split up life into 4 quadrants: WORK, LOVE, HEALTH, and PLAY.
Then, each quarter I look at each of these areas and check in with myself on how my intentions and desires for that particular quadrant are going.
I would love to invite you to do the same.
Here are some questions to help you along:
What were your intentions for WORK, for LOVE, for HEALTH, and for PLAY?
How satisfies are you in each of these areas?
What would you like to shift, reinvent, grow, or evolve in each area?
What specific actions can you take now that will move the needle for you by the end of 2024?
A final word: Be bold in your desires and trust yourself. Saying out loud –DECLARING– what you want with confidence is the FIRST step in actually creating the life you want.
I know this takes practice. I work with women every day who shy away from admitting what they actually want or dream of. I want to encourage you to step beyond that fear and stand by your own side with confidence and zest.
If you like, practice declaring what you want with me: Hit ‘reply’ and tell me what you really desire in WORK, LOVE, HEALTH, and PLAY. I would be honored to hold that vision for you and cheer you on energetically from afar :)
Love as always,
Caroline
