Episode 4: Diana has a history of being motivated in her career by experiencing chaos at home. Now that home life is on lock–can still show up in her professional world with integrity?

Your takeaways: 

  • Facing some amount of inner resistance or avoidance in our lives is perfectly normal. Resistance is at its peak at the beginning of a task or right before the finish. 
  • When a task is close to your soul’s curriculum or ultimate purpose, Resistance is at its absolute highest. Read The War of Art for more.  
  • Resistance can show up as: forgetfulness, avoidance, fogging out, getting “bored,” deciding something “isn’t our thing anymore,” impatience, or paralysis.   
  • Experiencing extreme or consistent Resistance in one area often has roots in the past. 
  • Life doesn’t require 100% effort from us in every area in order for us to be successful. 
  • Safety and comfort are different things. How can we learn to experience discomfort without assuming a lack of safety?
  • The Enneagram is a personality test–it assigns a number from 1-9 for each person who takes the assessment. For Enneagram Type 4s, learning that their feelings don’t have to rule their life can be a huge breakthrough.
