Death & Rebirth
In this episode, I explore the profound cycle of death and rebirth we experience during career transitions. Learn why letting go of old identities is essential before you can fully step into your new path and how resisting this natural cycle keeps you stuck in limbo.
What We'll Cover:

- What would complete surrender to your new path look like?
- Are you making decisions from abundance or scarcity?
- Is your nervous system sp
- What would your future self lovingly tell you to let go of right now?
Just as nature flows through its seasons without resistance, you too can embrace both the winter of letting go and the summer of full bloom in your career evolution.
