Stop Feeling Burned Out By Making Your Dreams A Reality

You're listening to the empowering working moms podcast episode number 72. Hello there. Thank you so much for being here today. Halloween, probably when you're listening to this will have already passed. I hope you had a great time with your children and maybe even dressed up yourself. 

I recently attended a Halloween party, it was really interesting, met all kinds of people. And that was fun for me. And now I am preparing to do Halloween with my two little ones. 

So today I want to talk about basically making our dreams come true. And I say that because one of the greatest contributors of burnout and exhaustion is really a lack of imagination and a lack of vision. And so many people, they don't think that the things that they want are realistic, and they're busy with the day to day grind, forgetting really about the larger picture and wishing that they could have the things they want or that they can make their dreams come true. 

And without being able to feel the possibility of our dreams coming true, this can really leave us feeling trapped and stuck. And that is even more, right, like that resonates with exhaustion and dissatisfaction. A client of mine prior to working with me, she's a doctor and she really wanted to cut down on hospital medicine. She wanted to cut back at work by one day a week. And she really thought that this desire was totally impossible that it was a pipe dream. 

However, through working with me, she really realized that what she thought was impossible was actually possible. And through really creating a vision of what she wanted for herself and finding her voice and building her confidence to really tap into that voice because she felt her voice was small for so long and that nobody was listening. Through this work, she made her dreams a reality. 

So what she thought was impossible when she started working with me was actually possible and she made all of that happen. And now she has way more free time back she's really able to dedicate some time to herself and she's so much more satisfied at work. Burnout and exhaustion are way back in the rearview mirror for her, they are a thing of the past. 

If you too want to ditch burnout and exhaustion once and for all, tune into my free masterclass on four steps to overcome burnout and exhaustion for good to get your peace of mind back. The link will be in the show notes. 

Now the other thing is one of the biggest mistakes we make is believing that we have no control over our lives or believing that our desires are really unrealistic and cannot become a reality. But the magic of coaching really dispels this and some of my secret sauce is really showing my clients that the impossible is possible. So we're going to talk about unlocking your potential and realizing that you can make your dreams come true. We'll explore how you can transform your life and make the impossible possible today. 

And the first step to doing this work is having a change in belief, which is also pretty much like having a mindset shift. We often underestimate the power of our thoughts, but believing that you have the capacity to achieve your dreams and acknowledging that the impossible is just a challenge waiting for you to make it happen. So we can actually cultivate beliefs, like belief in ourselves, belief that our dreams can come true in spite of whatever circumstances we're dealing with. 

Now, circumstances basically are just neutral things outside of us. For example, where we live, or our spouse, or our job. So we can make our dreams come true in spite of whatever is existing in our life. And something else we do in doing this is to step into who we are and really owning our own power. Just like my clients do, they start taking baby steps and find their voice to advocate for themselves. And in doing so they start making their dreams come true.

And so this also involves ditching limiting beliefs, which are really beliefs that hold us back. Like beliefs where we're thinking, I can't do this, this is impossible, this is never gonna happen, so and so's never gonna let me do this. And instead, replacing them with power statements or empowering beliefs, which are more like I can do this. I can do anything I put my mind to. 

Just step by step, day by day, I'm getting the life that I want for myself, I'm in the process. So if you can think about what your thoughts are and how you can start shifting your beliefs to get yourself started on your dream life, you're going to be well on your way. 

Another barrier that really comes up for moms like us, professional moms, is having self doubt. So really being able to overcome self doubt and build the confidence that you need to chase your dreams. Because self doubt will creep in with negative thoughts and simply learning to challenge them, that is how we start to combat these thoughts. So if you are in doubt, think of all of the things you have achieved up until now. So this is how we're crushing self doubt. 

Now pause this and make a list of five to 10 dreams that you have made come true in your life. And think about the time when you thought that these dreams, that came true now, there was a time where you thought they were impossible. So for me, this was actually getting into medical school, I really thought that was impossible. And I totally made it happen. And that was really because I decided I was going to do it. And I was not going to let anyone get in my way. And I made that dream a reality. And the power of my mindset is really what got me through before I even knew beliefs and mindset stuff, before I even knew anything about them. 

Now take these past experiences, the dreams that you made come true that you once did not think were possible, right? Because that shows you that whatever dreams you think right now are not possible are possible. So use these to fuel your belief in yourself. Soak in that power, feel how powerful it is to really grab your life and create what you want. And you have that ability. You can do it because you are a powerful woman, you're smart, you can really do anything that you put your mind to. 

So now take a minute to think of one dream that you want to make a reality, one dream that you want to make come true. Then think of how you would feel once that dream is achieved and begin to step into that feeling, that future self feeling. How would your future self feel? What would she even look like? How would she be dressing? And really just take some time every day to feel that feeling and visualize yourself succeeding in that dream that you would want to make come true. 

So visualizing can really help rewire our brains to believe that our dreams are a reality. And then we're taking the action to actually make them happen. But our brain pretty much doesn't really know the difference between what we're telling it and reality. So this is actually really useful in creating the life that we want for ourselves. 

So then once you are able to do this visualization, and I suggest doing it every single day, maybe first thing in the morning, that's a fun time to do it. Then decide the next step that you can make, the actual action you can take to move the needle towards that dream. And then you go ahead and you take that action, you could reach out to a friend as an accountability partner or even hire a coach. And there are just so many ways to go about doing this. 

So you have to make some practical steps for making these dreams a reality, creating a roadmap. And then by setting clear goals and breaking them down into steps, you're gonna see your dreams happening along with really that belief piece and that feeling of what you would feel like once you achieved it, that you made that dream come true. So actually, I'm going to tell you something brand new and special that I'm offering from now until the end of the year, I cannot believe we basically have November, December and then the year is over. 

So I think that this is a really fun way to set up the year of 2024. I myself usually do a year in reflection and I'll plan on delving into that before the year ends. But right now I'm offering a powerful vision breakthrough, so you don't want to be left out of this. 

This is really the ultimate transformation to jumpstart your dreams and it is a very brief, tiny way to work with me. It's cheap and it is not that time consuming. It's just like a bite size way to start off 2024 in an amazing way. So if you're ready to finally break free from limiting beliefs, your own limitations, your self doubt, and embrace a life of endless possibilities okay, because the impossible is possible.

My clients, they come to me thinking that so many things that they want, they can't have and through our work together we go from exhaustion to truly their best life.
