EP 453: How to Make Changes When You Don't Have Certainty or a Plan with Liv

In this episode, Christine Hassler coaches Liv, who is experiencing a significant life transition and is unsure about her career and future. Liv has worked with children as a teacher, babysitter, and nanny, but now she wants to explore other professional paths. She struggles with guilt over leaving her current line of work and fears the uncertainty of pursuing new opportunities.

Consider/Ask Yourself:

• Are you feeling the urge to change, or has a change been forced upon you?
• How did your upbringing shape your views on failure and success?
• Do you rely on your job as a safety net?
• What is your relationship with uncertainty, and are you willing to change your beliefs to improve it?

Guest Insights:

• Liv is transitioning from a familiar career working with children to exploring new professional opportunities.
• She feels overwhelmed by the thought of leaving a job she loves but also wants to pursue personal growth.
• Liv struggles with balancing her desire to serve others with her need for self-fulfillment.
• She feels a deep need for control and certainty, which stems from her upbringing, where failure had severe consequences.
• Liv's primary challenge is to reprogram her beliefs and embrace uncertainty as part of her growth.

A-Ha Moments:

• Liv recognized that her current job should not be seen as a safety net but as a stepping stone to new opportunities.

How to Get Over It:

• Embrace the belief that prioritizing her growth is not selfish but essential for serving others more effectively.
• Take one step at a time and recognize that safety and certainty come from within, not from external jobs or situations.
