176. When you don’t know what you want in life. Life on purpose for the non-dreamer Simple on Purpose | Intentional Living and Parenting
-
- Parenting
I want to talk to you about listening more deeply to yourself and asking, "what do I want?". For some of us, we are out of touch with our dreams or our life vision. We might feel overwhelmed, or like it is impractical, or like we have failed too much in the past. This episode is to help you see some of the ways you might be stuck with listening to your own dreams and ideas, and some tips on moving through that.
