You can do anything, but not everything

That isn’t armor you’ve wrapped yourself in. That’s a cage.

- L.E. Bowman

We still talk endlessly about balance or our lack there of.

We struggle with the juggle.

We are exhausted.

In many cases we have thrown our hands up in the air, dropped our heads in despair, and figured that we would just have to settle for this life, unsatisfactory as it feels, because this is just the way it is.

But one simple realization can lift you out of that feeling:

You can do anything, but you can’t do everything.

You can do anything, but not everything.

You are wildly capable and you have the world available to you.

But you are still going to have to choose.

What the priorities are.

What is on your yes list, your not now list, and your no list.

What is for today, what will have to wait.

Which direction you go in.

What roles you take.

The clients you choose.

Which business you start.

When the right time is to push forward with your career and when it’s time to take your foot off the peddle.

Sit in the liberation of knowing that you get to choose what’s in, what’s out, what it all looks like as it comes together.

And yes, how you balance the choices that you make.

You are a liberated woman.

How empowered you are is up to you.

You can do anything, but not everything

You can strive for less

What would it feel like to strive for less, instead of more? You may need to sit with this one for a few moments. We are socially programmed to always want more. More money. A better job with a bigger title. A bigger business. A newer car. A larger house. The newest fashion in our

The Dark Goddess

As much as we may like to, we don’t live our lives only in the light. No matter how conscious or awakened we are, we can’t live in the light without the darkness. Growth happens in the dark. Renewal, rebirth and possibilities happen in the dark. They wait for us in the form of the

Facing your shadow self

Psychiatrist Carl Jung defined the term shadow as the unknown dark side of our personality. He called it dark, because it consists of the negative aspects of human emotion and impulses such as anger, rage, lust, striving for power, greed, selfishness, envy. Our dark emotions can lead us to unhealthy actions and behaviors like addiction,

What would a radical move look like?

Think radical. Off the charts. Exciting but perhaps mildly terrifying. A definite game changer. What would it look like? Is it something completely unexpected, or perhaps something you have been quietly dreaming about for some time? Feel into it. We don’t often make radical moves. Mostly we skim around the edges. If we want to

Know your truth

To truly come home to ourselves, we need to have a safe place to come home to. We do that by getting to know ourselves, listening for and learning the truth of who we are, what we believe, what we need, and then trusting that truth. It can be the most challenging journey for us
