December is here once again. In the business coaching world, this means that just about everyone is thinking about making NEXT year the best year ever. Lots of programs are being offered and lots of buzz around year end and new year.
I've been in a pretty intense transition phase for the last two years or so. Going from being a married, stay-at-home, unschooling mom (no - you are never NOT an unschooling mom, it just looks a whole lot different after the kids are off doing their thing!) to whatever my next thing is. I've been reconstructing my entire life and I love it.
I've been training. A lot. I've become an energy healer, an essential oil expert, a business coach (and an expert in Book Yourself Solid), as well as lots of other, less official trainings. I'm an unschooler - what can I say? I've been playing with starting a business and haven't been able to fully commit to what exactly I do yet. So this past summer I pressed pause on my business(es). I used my luxurious gift of time to fully explore my sexuality, coming out, falling in love, being in a relationship. What a gift!
I recently started reading The Happiness Project. It is inspiring me to think about my 50th birthday year in a new way. Why not do an intentional Journey of Joy? Why not blog about this journey? Spend a year examining what makes me joyful...
My birthday isn't until February, but it feel big and soon and like I need to be through many of the planning stages by now...
There's something about new beginnings that make us all think that we will be better this time. We will follow through. We will have the discipline to eat right, the exercise, to blog regularly, to spend time with friends. It is with this optimism that I contemplate my NEW Journey of Joy.
