Many of us are in huge, life changing transitions, personally and professionally. Whether it is myself, friends, or clients, each have been experiencing change on different levels internally and externally in lives. Transitions, even if the most exciting, can be incredibly disruptive. Often times, a transition, if not voluntary, can be felt as frustrating, scary, and exhausting. But there is ALWAYS space for observing ourselves, learning, growth, and taking nuggets of wisdom from these transitions, IF we allow ourselves to be present, slow down, surrender to, and embrace the journey, and be proud of our growth.

The notion of speed is being able to observe it, listen to it, change it. It is not a factor of going fast, or slow, but to move through life more deliberately. It allows you to consider different approaches to situations personally, and as a leader. You are able to think about what your situation calls for, versus reacting, speeding through it, or being victim to it.

In order to move, we must disrupt. To realize a dream, we must get uncomfortable. On the way, there will be unexpected events that throw us off center, but it is then we can remember, we are in choice in how we respond, and remind ourselves of the larger purpose.

You never need to ask permission to be yourself. Go for what you truly want, versus what you think others expect. Let go of fear. Surrender to being YOU, and be amazed at the freedom and gifts you experience. This is core confidence.
