When the Plan Is the Problem
The Soulful Leader Podcast
Planning is the road to success, the path to freedom.
Or is it?
What if planning only part of the answer, and not having the whole picture is keeping you VERY stuck?
Today Stephanie and Maren unpack what we’ve been taught about planning (and sticking to the plan), how it’s holding us back, how we can use it and what it actually takes to step fully into our flow. It requires both awareness and practice - and it’s a powerful path into the meaningful, fulfilling life that too often feels out of reach.
This week:
- They address everything from “if you fail to plan, you plan to fail” to “you know how to make God laugh? Tell him your plan.”
- They give solid, actionable ways to transcend (and include) planning
- They question everything, and invite you to do the same
- They share personal, relatable examples
- AND they have solutions for when your plan goes sideways
Tired of either/or, binary options like,
~ push-through-and-make-it-happen, ‘my way or the highway’
~ poor me victim, ‘I'm gonna let it happen’
Ready to step into what wants to happen for you? WITH you?
Then today’s podcast is for you!
