Happy Monday!

 Updates & events at the end
Last week, I went reeeaaal meta. I did a live event to talk about my next live event lol. That next event is a webinar (is there a better term than that?!) helping you go from feeling lost & dissatisfied to having actual direction. Today's thought-letter dives into dissatisfaction and how to reframe the spiraling. The live recording (link below) goes even further into what the webinar will be like. 
It's ~15 min & easily watchable on 1.5 speed 🙃

Let's talk about the reality of spiraling 🌀.
 
It's this sense of moving but going nowhere, getting nowhere clearer.
 
There are certain situations that activate tor trigger this, for me anyway.
 
It in jobs or roles you outgrow.
In not knowing the next best step.
When the company or team's bigger picture is unclear.
When you don't know what you truly want - your personal dream or goal evades you.
 
Going in circles and spinning is frustrating because it's overwhelming and underwhelming at the same time. This further contributes to confusion and dissatisfaction.
 
Although it's super normal, it's super fucking uncomfortable. 
 
But the way out is not to ignore it. It is to curiously go deeper. 
 
Not deeper into the feeling, deeper into what's causing it. 
 
This changes the dynamic. It flips it.
From spinning at the surface (pic on left) to investigating the root cause (pic on right).

Don't try to avoid the discomfort and dissatisfaction. Don't play it off or cast it aside.
 
There is a cost to that: more dissatisfaction and demotivation.

The most expensive cost: staying where you are. 
 
Why would you do that when there is an easy thing you can do?
 
→ Take time to reflect. 
 
Using that time to turn dissatisfaction into direction is a process though.
 
I designed my Super Clear Creative Career webinar to deliver on that. 
→ Dedicated time in a safe space and in community to go deeper
→ Guided exercises to get insight into what's going on
→ A framework to transform the issue into a goal
→ Being aware of emotions that come up
 
And doing that will also make dissatisfaction temporary.
 
Once you know the core issue you can:
take steps
avoid missteps
feel lighter
let go
 
One person said this about the exercise. “I am definitely moving with a more positive energy and feeling lighter of imposter syndrome as a result of your workshop.”
 
This is the starting place for growth and change.
 
We were meant to grow.
 
Much like a plant, we have to go deep and create the right conditions to grow. 🌱
 
RSVP here for the webinar on April 8th at 17:00 CEST. P.S. it's free.
