Fearful, overwhelmed, uncertain. But I have to take the leap.
Have you ever had the experience of knowing you have to take a risk? If so, that’s where I am. I’ve taken many risks in my life, but diving into my purpose and changing the way that I work and help has been hard.
I’ve worked in direct service for over 20 years, but that’s about to change. It has to change. I want to help others, but not with my credentials or degrees, rather with my experience. My experience in all my identities. My experience with suffering and struggling. My experience trying my best in this lifetime. My experience trying to heal.
But this requires me to move away from what is safe and stable. And that alone is apart of healing. I make good decisions for myself, Hell, sometimes excellent decisions. But they are usually safe, practical and methodical.
If I want to live in my purpose, I’m going to have to abandon safe and practical. Maybe I can keep methodical 🙂
But here I am. Scared. So damn scared. But I’m leaping regardless. My trust in who I am and what I’ve built will have to be my safety net.
