Introduction

The weather was perfect for a run.  I was looking forward to running on the grass to strengthen my ankles on uneven ground.  I could feel the uneven surface during Monday’s workout at The Grove and thought why not work on this and get in elevation at the hill.

I asked the PAX to sit down and showed the Box Breathe.  We have the ability to do breathe work anytime and anywhere.  It is a powerful tool to reduce stress, calm yourself, and center.

I wanted to discuss becoming “uncomfortable” and overcoming fear to do it.  Last year I sold my shares of our Home Health agency back to my partner.  This was the start of my M and I’s new journey.  I have continued to work at the agency as the VP of Sales.  It has allowed me time to heal and continue to have my salary as my M took time off from working.  This caused me to become comfortable and caused me internal stress of still working at the agency that was like living with an ex-girlfriend.  Last week I received a call from a contact in the industry asking me to come out to his agency to talk.  This was exciting to think the timing is now for me to make my change and get back into the driver’s seat that makes me happy.  I have not had the liberties to lead and innovate like I did before.  This has caused me to be a shell of who I was.  Yesterday’s meeting went great and lit a fire in me that has been gone for too long!!!

I will be making a decision to take a leap of faith for a start up with huge upside / risk or stay complacent and unhappy for a safe paycheck.  I have gotten this far by taking calculated risks and it is time to think even bigger and build the future I desire.
