This episode is about fulfillment and what to do when we start to feel restless, bored, or lose our passion for something. Today\\u2019s caller, Corey, is feeling unfulfilled regarding his job, but many of you may be feeling unfulfilled in your romantic relationship or friendships. Corey thought the solution to his lack of fulfillment was changing his job, but he didn\\u2019t know what to do instead. A lack of fulfillment often comes with a lack of clarity. Corey will gain clarity and feel fully, authentically self-expressed, the more he takes risks and listens to his heart. We think that changing the external situation of finding a new job, or finding someone new to be with, is the answer -- that is not often the solution. It could perpetuate the problem. So, what are you truly longing for? Tap into the longing, and instead of thinking you need to change your external circumstances, think about how you can give yourself what you are longing for, now. How can you take action, and create behaviors that support you?\\xa0 Before you quit your job, or end a relationship, get honest with yourself about what might be there for you to learn, and how you might be creating your own discontent. Often, we feel an inner call to reach out to someone, or to share something, and we ignore it. Please don\\u2019t ignore it, because you never know what will happen. The only way you can get a no for sure, is if you never ask or never reach out. The only way you are ever going to fail, is if you never try. Regret is far more painful than risk. So, take that risk. Reach out to that person. Speak up. Do that thing your intuition has been nudging you to do. You never know how it will impact the person on the other end. Don\\u2019t allow your self-doubt, or fear of another person\\u2019s reaction, to stop you from listening to your heart. Let your intuition be louder than your inner critic. \\xa0 Consider/Ask Yourself: \\u25cf Is there an area of your life in which you feel unfulfilled? Are you fantasizing about leaving your current job or relationship? \\u25cf Do you relate to being a \\u201cyes man,\\u201d or a \\u201cyes woman\\u201d? Are you afraid to say no and stand up for yourself? \\u25cf Do you long to feel safe, validated, and accepted? \\xa0 Corey\'s Question: Corey is considering leaving his current job but is trying to figure out what is next for him. \\xa0 Corey\'s Key Insights and Aha\\u2019s: \\u25cf He feels burnt out and unfulfilled in his current position. \\u25cf He felt he was always loved conditionally. \\u25cf He searches for external validation. \\u25cf He has no idea what is next for him. \\u25cf He comes up with excuses to keep himself safe. \\u25cf He doesn\\u2019t feel authentically self-expressed. \\u25cf He realizes he has built a box around himself. \\xa0 How to Get Over It and On With It: \\u25cf He should take steps to change his behavior and take more risks. \\u25cf Transform himself in his current position, so he can move through the reactive energy. \\u25cf He should establish a better relationship with himself. \\u25cf He should listen to his heart, and act on his intuition. \\u25cf He should celebrate who he is, and receive the compliments given to him. \\u25cf He should carry a picture of his younger self, and when he is self-defeating he should look at his picture. \\xa0 Assignments and Takeaways: \\u25cf If you feel unfulfilled how can you take responsibility, and change on the inside, instead of making an external change? \\u25cf What did you crave when you were little that you didn\\u2019t get, that you need to give yourself now? \\u25cf How can your current soul family support you in making changes? \\u25cf Take a deep breath and breathe into the truth of who you are. Then, set the intention to be more authentically self-expressed. \\u25cf Speak kindly to yourself. \\xa0 Sponsor: Audible - Free audiobook download and a 30-day free trial. \\xa0 Resources: Christine Hassler - Book a session to be on the show!
