Checking In EP:35

Hello, my friends and welcome. You're listening to soul inspired decisions, a podcast for ordinary moms living extraordinary lives. My intention with this podcast is to teach, motivate and inspire by sharing stories, tools and strategies to help you unlock your greatest fears, annoying habits and old stories and make a move towards the things that have been on your heart. If you have been a little lost, or in a funk, and want to reconnect with your purpose, your passion and feel empowered again, then this is the best place for you to be hanging out. My name is Carrie Lecuyer. And I'm an ordinary mom making extraordinary decisions. This is me putting one foot in front of the other, moving towards my next goal, and hoping to inspire you along the way. Let's get started.

Welcome back to the podcast. This is episode 35. And my intention for today is to connect you with where you are at. And what went well for you because we are officially halfway through 2022. So as being connected, there are two wonderful ways in which we can feel connected, connected to ourselves, the universe, God Buddha, your angels, whatever speaks to you the most. And brings the spark of magic and wonder into you and remind you that everything is okay. Or we can feel connected to the people in our life. And either way is a great check in to know that you're exactly where you're supposed to be. And feeling connected is how inspiration flows through us to create new ideas, experiences, Adventures of ourselves and with others. So this is important to me to check in. Because if we don't check in and reflect, we can't move forward and grow. So with being officially here today, thank you for joining me and 2022 is, is we're here in the middle, congratulations, we made it. There are so many pieces of this year that probably felt like a roller coaster for so many. And we just got to understand that we gotta keep moving forward. Where did the time go? It's been, it's been crazy. And if you have kids, you know that life feels like it. There is no such thing as time that just is sucked up by all the things that we used to do in a day. Or if you're running a business or corporation or whatever, you may have a new life, we can get consumed by time so quickly that we forget to stop and really connect and reflect with where we are at where we want to go, where we've been and the lessons we have learned and where we need to go in the next phase of our our life. So it has been a crazy time for shifts and changes for so many of us. And I want us to send out a special shout out to all the amazing individuals because I know that there's so many so many who have worked with me, as clients want to learn and through some of the group stuff that I've done, but also just hearing stories of people who have stepped into the thing that they've always wanted to do or taking a chance or expanded on some healing and some learning and some growth. Congratulations, you have done that yourself. You've stepped in and done it personally or professionally. I know that those journeys are not easy for you or for any one of us. Because growth is tough. Change is tough. And it's just so you know, it's the journey that evolves that really makes the experience when we look back and reflect on how we've learned how we've grown and how we've expanded with doing all the work and all the things I do know that we when we push ourselves out of our comfort zone it is it is not easy. Many of the years I do different things different work on myself sometimes shadow work sometimes grow sometimes education, whatever it may be it is it is worth it. It's sometimes very exhausting, exhausting.

All the excuses come up. I mean that has really come up with with clients, especially when we're heading into month three heading into four because we ultimately have the choice when you work with me to move forward. It's your choice and that fourth month of growth and expansion is where it's actually all at. There's also another piece that proves that moving from month, five to six is worth lots of expansion and I honor where you are at in your journey but You are doing it wherever you are, you're doing it and you're here and you're showing up. And thank you for joining. And you are in your personal power, when you show up. And you when you choose to show up, you're showing up for yourself, no one else is doing it for you. And that is simply amazing. So congratulations. And that may seem like a little small win for you. But just know that the celebrations at those small wins are huge. Many of you may not take the time to celebrate your wins. And, and that is something that we've adopted and in our belief system, but you are very much worthy of celebrating the small wins however small or big they are to you in your world. If you got there and you did it and you showed up, you deserve celebrate. And that might just be simply maybe a glass of wine, maybe a little bath, maybe a walk by yourself. Just very simple. It's not a grand Grand Ole Opry, show, it's not a trip that costing you $10,000. It's Nothing extravagant. It's just a little piece that makes you happy and helps you to fill your cup is basically what celebration means. And each and every day that we show up, and we decide that we are worth it, you are worth it. You are doing the damn thing. Really, you are raising up your vibration and your frequency. Because where you were let me ask where you were a year ago to now do you feel like you've moved up the the vibration fruit frequency in your life? Do you feel better? Do you feel greater I mean, you may not be at a 10 out of 10. But you may have been at a four for so long that maybe you're at a five or six right now. And that feels wonderful. And that is what you should celebrate. Everything that we do is in our control. And everything is always shifting and changing the ebbs and flows of life. So we simply want to use our positive energy and our positive thoughts in the moment and thrive on them. As the universe ask God ask angels to bring in the energy that you need at this point in life because like attracts like Good Vibrations attract good vibrations, and we are at a higher level. And I know that that sometimes seems really short lived when we have kids, I mean, they can rock our world in 30 seconds flat, and we feel like we have done nothing right in our entire lives. Or they're negotiating or arguing or we know nothing. I mean, my son's seven years old, and I feel like my husband and I know nothing.

Maybe you can relate me. And I hear that doesn't get any better as they get older. But we are trying to maneuver and work around his ideas of greatness in his own world and honoring who he is and who's who he's become. And just seeing how he lights up when he feels that he's right or on to something great. But that starts when we are little growth and expansion happens when we are a little. And then we forget about it. Some were in the middle of our lives, as we are trying to fit into crowds in school and sports. And then once we leave high school and we graduate and we evolve and marry and have children and we've somewhere in all of that forget our own growth and expansion. But really, it lights us up when we have a little bit of little bit of a glimpse of what it might be like if I could pursue this. If I could pursue the thing or this is on my heart. Why is it so so subtly on my heart because it's meant for you and that's the happy happiness that lies in you not that you're not happy, but there is a vibration in your whole being that can really raise when you start doing the things that you love and are interested in and it's for you. Okay, so reflecting on the past six months of 2022 I'm just going to ask you what is one of your wins? I mean in the last six months, January to June, what is one thing that went well for you? Maybe you did you tried? You offered to do you stepped up signed up for one thing for you reflecting back on your months that you did.

So if you have something you know what that is for yourself. Just put your hand on your heart and tell yourself thank you tell yourself good job or you're worthy of having that you experienced that. That is a piece of you. And if you have a second thing that you've done, dig a little deeper. What's going on for you? What Where did you show up? Where did you show up differently? What did you try? Did you go to counseling Did you sign up for the course. Did you To make a new friend did you get out of bed, maybe you are worthy of all these different things that you forgot about. But it's actually a win. So you might have one thing, you might have two things, you might have three things. So just a reflection back on what the things that I have done. Because even myself, I forget, we move on so quickly. But I did sign up for a mastermind, love, love, love it, I forgot how much I miss being in a mastermind, a women who are growing and getting ideas and feeding off the energy. love it so much. I miss it so much. Number two, I did run a half marathon. And it went pretty good. I'm pretty happy with my results, not what it used to be before, kids, but I'm very happy with where I'm at right now. And there's always room for growth in that. Number three, I had a third, it has completely slipped my mind. But I know there was three and I should have put it down. But in the moment, I acknowledged my little wins for myself and celebrating them. And I went for a walk just reflecting on the things that I've done. I went all in, I worked through them, there's lots of growth, there's lots of wanting to not do it. There's lots of like stories that come up. But I moved through them to the finish line and succeeded in those for myself. They were nobody else's, they were mine. So really take ownership of where you're showing up what you've done, what you've tried, and know that that is yours and sink into it. You did those things. And that and it wasn't easy. It's never easy. The journey is never easy for what we're, what we're doing what's happening. And it happened to be because you were open to shifting and changing. That was you ready for what was next. And the moment you decided you wanted better, healthier, you wanted to lose some weight, you wanted to start a new career, you signed up with a coach, a therapist, started seeing a doctor, maybe you started seeing a natural path that is super huge in health and healing for so many people right now. Maybe you started taking a course or went back to work one day a week. Maybe you booked a call with someone that you haven't talked to in a long time and you're trying to heal old friendships or family relationships that have been off for a while that's coming to my mind. So something's maybe you booked a trip that you've been talking about forever, things are opening up in our world, maybe it's time for you to go on your on a trip. So wherever you're at congratulations on that, because that's where you told the universe, you were ready and you wanted and you made it happen. You did that you are ready. That is that is powerful. This is how it works. Of course, there are problems in our world that arise when we move forward. Because if you've reflected now on the thing that you've done, you know, in the moment, the things that came up and and if you're done your journey, or if you have already started, you know how hard it was to make the decision to go back to work and have somebody else look at your after your children. You may know how hard it was to get off the couch and start walking 30 minutes a day, or changed your eating habits. You know how hard it was. And of course, you probably got distracted, you probably want it to quit. It happens to each and every one of us on the journey that we are on it's it's life. It's the resistance that shows up to keep us in our comfort zone. So if you're at a place in your life where you no longer want to be where you used to be, this is your time to step up and understand that the next six months are available to you to vision, what you want, where you want to go. Maybe you want to expand on one of your wins that you've already created this year. Maybe I want to go from one day a week of work to two days a week of work, maybe you have an idea that you want to go back to school and instead of researching it, you might go visit the school. Or you might talk to an instructor. It's available for you if you want it and know that you are honored. When you were at the right place at the right time, our energy and our Vedic vibrations creates such a flow that it just naturally feels easy. Not that we won't feel nervous or anxious or all the things but understand that that is meant for you at that time and you are gathering the information you need to help you make a decision. And once you make the decision, the process that's has to flow and move into place easily, until we get in our own way. And that's when the resistance comes up. And then we look at how we feel. And as soon as we don't feel good, then we want to back off, back down, bringing the excuses bringing the old patterns bring in the old stories, and they creep up, creep up so easily in every single one of us. So when you are creating a stepping stone into a new, more powerful you, that is when number one, we start our journey, number two, resistance, our ego comes into play and tries to distract us. And it's up to you to decide where you're at on this journey and where you want to go. It's very, very powerful process to understand when you're looking at the whole picture of what you want, and what you want to accomplish. Member filling up your own cup will help you be a more powerful you and help you to be able to maybe handle the anxiety you have with the depression or maybe the anger towards a family member. Or maybe you have the nervousness to apply for a job because you have no education. It's irrelevant. If you decide and you're on the right journey for yourself, it doesn't exist. So if you are in a place where you're ready to start to launch to get connected with a new version of yourself, and you really want to step into 2022, because we have been shut down for a couple of years and all sorts of things and ideas and self sabotage came into effect. But we also really were able to understand what we want out of life and where we want to go. And for some of us, we have created this busyness for our lives again, and we're feeling very anxious, and it's not serving us. And that's not where we want to go. So I invite you to take a step back, take a deep breath, understand what you want out of the next six months, create your boundaries and decide to connect with your inner most truest self and move forward in a calm collected way. And so this summer, I want to offer all my listeners a summer reboot. A call that is for anyone who wants to it's about a 75 minute long call and you connect with me on the link in the in the shownotes IG or on my website inspired by carrie.com. And it's a 75 minute call, where we dive into the things that you really want to connect with where you see yourself going clear away some of the old thoughts patterns that are creeping up heavily. And we'll move forward with this beautiful map for your next. Even if you chunk it down six months seems really big. So if you want to chunk it down to three months, if you want to chunk it down to the next 30 days, heck, if you just want to go

just for the next seven days, and really look and dive into what you want to accomplish and stepped into and really aligned with what's available for you. This package is for you. It's just a one call, there's no, there's no monthly commitment, like my coaching clients. It's just a one call, where we dive into the things and you allow to yourself to have clarity and expansion. And to ensure that this started, the next part of 2022 is filled with your most truest connected you. And that's really powerful, because that can start a whole domino effect of greatness and expansion. And that's what we really want. We want to align ourselves with the things that we want. So if you're interested in a summer reboot, so this will be offered for June, July and August. So it's a 75 minute call with me to reconnect and get clarity and expansion on all the things that you have envisioned and where you want to clean up and maybe move through what you get clear on what you really want, then, then you'll want to definitely connect, connect with me and get on the list to make this happen. So don't forget to celebrate you and your wins because what you have done in 2022 so far has been the work of yourself. And if you want to expand and clean up on some things and keep moving forward. That is what I'm here for. That is what I do. That's what I do with groups of women, bring them together and connect and move forward or individually one on one I'm here to help and serve you and to bring out the most beautiful part of your personality that maybe hasn't been shining for a very long time. And that's what I want to honor and bring to you as you move forward with the rest of this year. So, I'm wishing you well. I'm wishing you a wonderful June and summer solstice and I'll talk to you soon take care.
