Episode 314: The Importance of Giving Birth After Menopause

When I had this thought, it felt important to talk about because those of us who are dealing with the sadness of an empty nest focus so much on missing the kids we gave birth to that we fail to see we can still give birth!!! We can give birth to new ideas, to new dreams, to new goals!

Maybe we no longer can give birth to a child, but would you really want to do THAT again if you could?! Not me!

But our children gave us such purpose and we miss that feeling. I get that. So get pregnant with purpose!

And when you do, focus on the OUTCOME, not all of the effort and steps it will take to get to that goal. Just like the baby was the outcome of your goal of having a child.

What is the desired outcome of a dream you have? What does it look like when it is fully birthed and comes into existence? How does it make you FEEL?

I had fun with this topic because the analogy makes so much sense when you think about it. Listen in and hear my comparisons so you can understand why we find it so easy to give up on our goals but never ever when it comes to having a baby!
