Today’s episode is inspired by a conversation I’ve had with one of you Balancers. Their painpoint? Dealing with the inevitable sacrifices that come with change. Even when we know and feel a change is necessary, the fall out or collateral damage from change, can be really hard to work through. Having undertaken a LOT of change this year myself, sacrificing my identity, career trajectory, money and so on, are all things I have felt.Today I share my thoughts on what these sacrifices mean on our journey and path and how to deal with them PLUS a cool morning activity you can do every day (under 1 min) to keep your why/purpose front and centre.To check out our dedicated episode on Comparison you can find it here. Do share this episode with someone that comes to mind when I say change and sacrifice!Until next time,Stay BalancedP.S. Need a fix in-between episodes?
