Ep 131: Anchored in the Now: Gratitude & Showing Up for the Season You're In
The good stuff is already in the here and now...
In this episode, Dorothy gets real about the beauty and the busyness of a season that's full, Some people call it Maycember....soccer tournaments, dance recitals, baseball finals, end-of-school celebrations, and why that's exactly the time to slow down and anchor into gratitude. This one is a reminder that joy doesn't have to wait for completion. The process, the practice, the ordinary Tuesday morning? That's where life is happening.
Dorothy also gets into something she sees a lot in the women she coaches: resistance to even wanting what you want. Whether it's a business, a relationship, a financial goal, or a creative dream, we can talk ourselves out of our own desires before we ever take a single step. This episode permits you to let those desires exist, without apology.
