Thriving in the Transition
·
This week's episode was all about "being comfortable with discomfort". I was joined by friend and "well'practiced transitioner", Sarah Zadigan. Here's a quick recap of our conversation as it pertains to being comfortable with discomfort:
· Growing Pains – the mental pains of growth mirror the physical pains of growth
o Continual Evolution
· We have changed the language of transition – that it’s bad
o Vulnerability
· Practice
o Mindfulness and being present
· Have faith in yourself and in your goal
· Surround yourself with people that will honor your transition
· “If you fail… fail while daring greatly” Teddy Roosevelt
· The opinions of the people NOT in the arena with you don’t matter
o Sometimes you he to Marie Kondo the people in your life
· Express gratitude
· Choose to make the language of transitions positive vs negative
· Transitions are periods of vulnerability
o Strengths and vulnerability are NOT mutually exclusive
· Be aware of the feeling of uncomfortable
o Is it simply your growth
o Is it that you are growing away from those in your arena
· Changing goals is NOT the same as quitting
o Quitting means I’m not willing to put the work in
· If yourself grace and to accept the transition for all that it has to offer
There was so much goodness in that conversation. I’ll simply segue by saying - leverage these points and my conversation with Sarah to Thrive in the Transition.

So this week I bring back our “On” series. This is where I talk about important transitions in my life and hopefully make them relatable to you and your transition. So, this is my birthday week! Feel free to send gifts, cards and well wishes. But no pressure! So, I figured with would be a great opportunity to share my perspectives on getting old. By no means is this an episode bemoaning the aging process or lamenting all the things that I didn’t do or didn’t accomplish – y’all know me better than that! But what this IS are my observations and changes related to me getting older mentally, physically and emotionally.

So, I had a realization that I like to accept challenges. Accepting challenges allows me to improve, grow and learn. Accepting challenges is a way for me to get out of my comfort zone and keep making progress towards my overall goal of total world domination. Accepting challenges is also a way to test myself and to put new knowledge, skills and abilities into action. Lastly, accepting challenges is a great way to connect with people and PROVE that we have more in common that we do in difference. So, I dedicate this episode to Barney Stinson, played by Neil Patrick Harris, from How I Met Your Mother.
Here are some of the benefits of accepting challenges:
- Opportunity
- Personal satisfaction
- Increased community
- Creation
- Fun and adventure or The Newness

Earlier this week I was channel surfing and I came across of my favorite movie’s, Barry Gordy’s the Last Dragon. Then it dawned on me that that movie was indeed all about transitions. And even more specifically, it was about knowing without knowing and action without thought. How do you actually know when you’ve made it to the next level? How do you know when you’ve achieved your goal?
This week we talk about the traits of the Last Dragon:
- Hard work and dedication
- Curiosity
- Perseverance
- Service to self and others
- Humility
- Continuous learning
- Self-belief or confidence
- Community
- Bravery
- Well-defined destination
