Episode 373: From The End of Her Rope to Making Bold Moves in 3 Months, with Laura Volz

Today I have a special guest who agreed to come on the podcast to share the incredible journey she’s had since she signed up for a free training workshop I did earlier this year. Meet Laura Volz, who after that workshop made, what she calls, the very “scary” decision to join the Second Half SPARK School and go deep in the self-exploration, subconscious brain rewiring, and vision-setting work we do there.

That decision has changed the trajectory of her life in ways she could not have even imagined back at the beginning of 2023. In fact, she wrote me an email in just 3 months after she joined and here’s an excerpt: 

“When I watched your free workshops on Facebook, I was at the end of my rope.  I felt like you were talking directly to me. I knew there had to be more for me. But What?? How do I find it??  How do I know??  

I decided to sign up for your Sparked Second Half School. I don't usually do this kind of thing. I didn't know what to expect and It was very scary.  I decided that as frightened as I was, of the unknown, I was more afraid of not knowing. I have been treading water in life for a very long time and I am tired.”

I’m so happy she got to the point where she finally took action and that working with me in the Second Half SPARK School was exactly what she needed. What she realized very quickly is that she was not living the life she wanted and that was no longer acceptable. And wow, did she ever take big bold action! 

In this episode, Laura talks about:

• Her lifelong fear of speaking up and how she learned that, as a people pleaser, she had always put everyone else’s priorities ahead of hers.
• How much she hated her job, knowing she could retire, but afraid to let go of that secure income.
• How the decisions she’s made have impacted her relationship with her husband.
• The incredibly courageous and BOLD big moves she’s made in a very short time that the old Laura would have never been brave enough to make!

Our conversation is proof that the unknown future that lies ahead for each of us is one we have the power to create. And that unknown, but better-than-we-can-imagine, future can begin today with one simple action. 

Let Laura’s story inspire give you hope that you too can gain the knowledge (and courage) you need in an incredibly short period of time and move very quickly into the better life you long for.

If Laura’s story resonates and you are ready to stop accepting the life that isn’t making you happy, then the Second Half SPARK School is open for a very short time this week. (10/23/23 - 10/26/23) Just think what is possible for you in just 3 months… 

And the best part? Whatever it is you might think is possible, is just the tip of the surface! Laura is just another example of the many students who have joined the school and had amazing transformations. And what they all had in common is that they didn’t think it was possible until it was!!!
