Welcome to the 100th episode of The New Beyond! 

 As many of you know, I began this podcast a little over 2 years ago as a kind of legacy project for my 80th birthday. 

 And we’re now 2 years and 100 episodes down the road and I’m still here!  And so are you!  And this community has grown and I’m celebrating that with all of you. 

 Recently, I surveyed the people who regularly listen to this podcast and among other things, I inquired : “what are the biggest challenges in your life right now”? 

 Over half of you indicated among your biggest challenge are issues around purpose, and direction. What is my purpose and where am I going? What's next in my life?

 So, there's a lot of uncertainty about what your life is about.  And why wouldn’t that be the case?  

 For those of you who are looking to launch or relaunch your life, to invent or reinvent yourself, let’s not lose sight of the fact that you are doing this in an era of endless change and upheaval. 

 There is an interesting quote from Alan Watts that I posted on the LITNB FB page:

 “There is a contradiction in wanting to be perfectly secure in a universe whose very nature is momentariness and fluidity.”

 And I think we could also say:

 "There is a contradiction in wanting to be certain in a universe whose very nature is that of uncertainty.”

The question that arises, what can I do? What am I supposed to do with my life when It's taking place inside such instability and change and upheaval?

 Join me as I address the following:

• How do we find purpose, meaning and direction in these times of upheaval and uncertainty?  

• How do we navigate this tremendous change?

• What if I don’t trust or believe in myself to do the work? 

• What can you bring to this moment to ground yourself and come to center? 

• What are the gifts of this time? 

 Together we have work to do.  And I am here to support you.  

 For those who indicated in your survey response that you’re interested in working with me either 1:1 in private coaching, or in a group, please contact me at:  judith@judithrich.com or message me on Facebook Messenger.  

 Tell me what you’re interested in and let’s put together a plan that meets your needs.
