Do you ever find yourself questioning your purpose or feeling the pressure to figure it all out? You're not alone—I've been navigating this journey too. I explore my own experiences, from feeling the urge to flee when things get hard, to embracing the joy and expansiveness that comes when I allow myself to step into my purpose. I reflect on how easy it is to get caught up in expectations, external validation, and the struggle to stay aligned with what truly matters. Together, we’ll unpack these layers and explore how we can soften into our gifts, rather than striving to "find" our purpose. Let's embrace the messiness, the questions, and the beauty of being human. Join me as we untangle these dynamics and discover what it means to live authentically.Connect with the Host:Learn more about Nicole - www.nicolelohse.com/about Download The Experiential Guide - www.nicolelohse.com/experiential-guide Join me on the podcast - www.nicolelohse.com/experiential-podcast Instagram - www.instagram.com/nlohseTikTok - www.tiktok.com/@nicole.lohseThanks for listening!Thanks so much for listening to our podcast!
