040: Age Is Just A Number: Manifesting Dreams and Seizing Unexpected Opportunities

Power of the Pivot Podcast

You know what pisses me off?
When conversing with someone, and they tell me that I am "overqualified," why is no one inviting me to sit at their table?
And if you have been in situations like that yourself, it's no wonder that women our age feel invisible, valueless, and hopeless.
Well, I am here to tell you to shut that noise down because at 62 F'n years old, I have landed the opportunity of a lifetime!
And you know what? If I can manifest this, so can you.
In this week's episode, I am getting raw and vulnerable on how this all went down and, more importantly, what it feels like to dream big unapologetically.
The reason why I am sharing all of this with you is because I have been known to be a bit of a nay-sayer when it comes to words like "manifestation" and "be careful what you wish for." Instead, I look at getting shit done more practically, thus why I created the What's Next Roadmap planning system. Which has helped me prioritize both the small and the big stuff.
But this past March, I was away with 25 fabulous humans in a very remote part of Baja, and it was an exercise during the Spring Equinox with my friend and healer, Nicole, changed everything.
I share the entire story in this episode, and if you are currently thinking about your next stage and phase, I can guarantee that this episode will inspire you.
Episode Highlights
2:37|Women our age are often told we are overqualified for a job that makes us feel invisible, valueless, and even hopeless.
6:54|Using a planning system, I could break down my dreams, wishes, and desires, prioritize them into bite-sized actions, and focus on all six small actions each day, week, and month.
8:37|An exercise during the Spring Equinox encouraged me to write down what I wanted to manifest over the next year using the prompts: I am, and I choose.
10:55|Being offered an opportunity of this magnitude is life-changing.
13:26|Validation only happens when one can take someone else to the places they deserve to be.
14:43|Write what you want, don't hold back. Make it personal to you because if you can do that, then everyone around you will benefit. Start a daily, weekly, and even monthly practice of writing down your desire.
