There are so many things I love about being a woman, but there’s one more than most: we want to have it all; the great home, a thriving biz, world travel—all while making an impact in the world.
(Who run the world? Girls!)
But too often we stick to the status quo instead; afraid of what other people might think, unsure of what we might be able to accomplish, and not even sure of what we actually want.
I know you don’t want a status quo life, love. (Me either.) You want an epic life—and living an epic life is easier than you’d think.
You don’t need a list of 10 “must-have” steps.
You don’t need a new product or a new course or a new book.
You may not even need the support of someone like me. (Though I’m always here, if you do!)
You just need to know what you want.
Just you.
Not your partner.
Not your parents.
Not the people who follow you on Instagram.
You need to know what you want. And you need to give yourself permission to pursue it.
Think about the time you spend time with yourself—going for a walk, getting a massage, taking a bath, writing in your journal . . . what comes out then? If you’re anything like me, that’s when the aha’s come.
That’s when you get clarity.
That’s when you see the truth.
That’s when you know what you want.
It’s why I make space for myself every morning. Whether I’m reading A Course in Miracles, meditating, journaling, or posting to Instagram—I allow myself to be in my feminine, going with the flow and envisioning the life that I truly want.
It’s a practice that lifts me up, reminding me of what I’m going for, who I desire to be—and, most importantly, that everything I want in my one epic life is possible.
That’s what I want for you, too: a vision for your epic life and a daily reminder that it is possible if you create the space for it. Whatever the desires of your heart—traveling, a soulmate, losing weight, a new car, a new home, reaching that next level in your career and business—they are yours and they are available and they are possible.
You are in charge of your life. No one else. It’s up to you (and me and her, too) to truly get to know who we are, what we want, and why we want it.
So, slow down. And ask yourself:
- What do I really want?
- What would feel good?
- Where do I need to be supported?
- What are my non-negotiables?
- When can I make time for them?
Don’t think too small.
Don’t think too big.
Don’t overthink it—this is your life.
What do you desire? What does your heart tell you?
These inklings of clarity are important. They’re not silly; they’re not wrong. They’re what you want. Stay true to yourself.
Then, be courageous. Be bold. And choose to live your one epic life on your terms.
Because here’s the thing, love: You get to choose an extraordinary life. You need to choose it. Every day. Let everything you do this week (and the next and the next) be more miraculous, more productive, and ever more inspired by your clear desires.
What do you want in your epic life? Once you know, the getting there is pretty easy.
