34: 5 Tips for Dealing with Change

Rock Your Reinvention: Tips For High-Achieving Women Who Want to Successfully Exit Their Six-Figure Corporate Career

Are you facing a change in your life at the moment? Have you struggled to deal with change in the past? Maybe you’re even avoiding making a change that could benefit you in the long run because of the short-term discomfort?

If that sounds like you, today’s podcast episode is exactly what you need.

Change doesn’t have to feel difficult or scary. You can empower yourself to overcome whatever you face and do it with a grateful heart – knowing you’re going to grow and learn from this experience.

I’m unpacking the following tips to help you cope with change whether you initiated the change, or it was something that was thrust upon you:

- Why you need to understand the typical change cycle so you can avoid traps that keep you stuck
- Change is necessary for growth; it can help you learn and expand your comfort zone
- Why romanticizing your past is normal, but not helpful to your transformation so let’s be self-aware and avoid this temptation
- Embracing the silver lining and benefits of difficult change (even in the face of death and other tragic events)
- The value of baby steps when tackling changes in your life and career, there’s no need to make this harder than needed
- How to anchor yourself back to your purpose and WHY you started this change in the first place to power you through the tough moments

Remember: There’s no such thing as an overnight success! There’s a lot of change and mindset shifts that were happening in the background leading up to what the public sees. So, if it feels like change is taking longer than it should stop comparing yourself to others. Keep pressing on.
