181: 7 Ways You’re Blocking Your Calling In Midlife – And What To Do About It
Episode Description:
In this episode, I revisit one of the most impactful articles I’ve ever written — 7 Ways You Keep Yourself From Your Calling — with fresh eyes and 11 more years of coaching and life under my belt.
I break down the common mental blocks and limiting beliefs I see time and again with my clients and community — from waiting on permission to downplaying your unique brilliance — and I share the mindset shifts you must adopt to finally answer your true calling in 2025 and beyond.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional still feeling unfulfilled, or an emerging voice trying to find the courage to shine, this episode is your reminder that your calling won’t wait forever — and neither should you.
🔑 In This Episode:
The 7 hidden ways you may be self-sabotaging your purpose
Why perfectionism and practicality can quietly kill your dreams
How to stop dimming your light to keep others comfortable
Why “waiting for permission” is the fastest path to regret
The difference between dabbling and committing to your greatness
What it really means to own your unique contribution in a noisy world
A 2025 mindset check: what's still true and what's changed since the original article was published
