2 Ways to Create A New Perspective EP:45

Hello, my friends and welcome. You're listening to soul inspired decisions, a podcast for ordinary moms living extraordinary lives. My intention with this podcast is to teach, motivate and inspire by sharing stories, tools and strategies to help you unlock your greatest fears, annoying habits and old stories and make a move towards the things that have been on your heart. If you have been a little lost, or in a funk, and want to reconnect with your purpose, your passion and feel empowered again, then this is the best place for you to be hanging out. My name is Carrie Lecuyer. And I'm an ordinary mom making extraordinary decisions. This is me putting one foot in front of the other, moving towards my next goal, and hoping to inspire you along the way. Let's get started.

Hey, guys, it's Carrie Lecuyer. And I want to welcome you to my podcast my kids are on today. So anything may go as you know, I do do my work from home, and they are home with me and chaos can hit the fan at any moment. Today, I want to talk to you about creating your own unique perspective on the things you're building and desire to build. This is important because sometimes we quit on ourselves before we get started. Because of other people's opinions, daily life circumstances out of our control. So we have to tap into that glow. That idea that spark that sometimes fades over time. And the best way to describe that in this moment is that picture maybe ball, the size of a golf ball that's like right in front of your chest, you can see it and then it moves towards your chest and enters your chest and expands like it's been just received a jolt of energy. Maybe a lightning bolt has like triggered and it expands in your heart and in your chest in the most courageous way. Essentially, maybe your spirit or your your soul Center Heart. Maybe you want to use God or the universe, whatever may come alive for you. But it's the most inner courageous, brave part of you that has faded over time maybe has been lost over experiences that are unique to you. And only you can feel and picture this expanding in you that excites you in a new refreshing way. So when it goes into your heart and expand it's really energetic and enlightening. And it's it's the purpose of having this thing to hope for look for. And I have asked a lot of questions over the years to my clients. And it's these questions that I have found the most powerful is where you're at right now in life doing what you're doing. Do you like the feeling? In this is really a yes or no question. That's very simple. Do you like how sick or tired you feeling? How uncomfortable you are with a, b and c and you're just like so exhausted that, that spark that flame inside of you that spirit is just like feels completely dead. And there's even no chance of hoping that you can pick that up and move forward with anything you want to because like feels so heavy. So what I want to look at today is in creating your own unique perspective, you are building a desire that's your own and unique to you. And the perspective of how you look at things is actually key. So today, instead of how you're viewing things, you want to take a look at your experiences, personally, and how they can be shifted or move so you know right now what's going on in your life. All your last week has went mine has been very exhausting to a point where I've got this bronchial thing where my asthma flared up and, and only I can understand what that's like for me, but I know that lots of other people that are experiencing different things going on and they're just tired. They're just tired of being a certain way. And with spring here and then new astrological calendar starting people feel inspired to move forward and they just aren't sure how. And the clients that have started with me this past month. Were are so quick and easy to shift a few little things to feel that spark again. So that's why we wanted to bring this awareness to us changing your perspective on the one thing that we're so focused on, but never moving forward because of life. We tend to get really in a pattern routine which you know, like a hamster spinning on a wheel and things don't change. And the thing is, we need to get uncomfortable to change things. And that's, that's the true statement like we have to, with the field out, we have to feel where we're at. And are we uncomfortable? Or are we too comfortable? We can look at it either way. The What have you decided that where you are right now is something that you don't want to do anymore. That somehow someway, you're tired of the grind, the weight, the workload, the responsibility, just the way that you feel. And you're just done with how it's been going. So if this is you, right, now, you can see that, yeah, I hear you, I'm this is me where I'm at right now. So but how right, this episode will help you decide your next next best step, to pour your own souls journey, this is what I love, it's like, getting clear on the little thing that you have going on. And really just taking the first step to the bigger picture, because the bigger picture can really seem so overwhelming that we really never start. And we just keep adding more, because it's such a great idea. But we never hone in on the very first step. So what you're desiring is your vision and your sole purpose, your journeys for life at this point, which can change at any time to don't get set on one way. Because as we evolve, as our vision evolves, and we grow, everything can change as well. But it's knowing that it's the jury, that's the biggest part of where we started to where we're going to move towards. So from here, you get to decide what you're no longer to keep going to keep doing. So here is the point of being courageous, taking a step forward, reaching out here at this point, you can create the first step clear of clarity that maybe you've had in a long time, just by realizing where you have been is not where you want to be. Are you looking at building a business? Are you looking at building a community, a side hustle, maybe writing a book, creating a podcast, or looking at changing careers, maybe leaving your job and turning into the world of work for, for the first time, in many years, maybe it's going back to college wanting to have a baby, you won't even believe how many clients I get, who come to me trying to decide if they want to expand their business or have another baby. And it's maybe two or three years of writing for them. And we're just looking for just to talk through all the emotions and the thoughts and the feelings that you have going on in your mind. And we'll help you give help you create clarity in just that. It doesn't matter what you want to create. If you want to have another baby, you're welcome to have another baby. If you want to chase that dream, you should chase that dream. Because when we have something to chase, we move forward. You're allowed to lose the weight, your bodies lose it all. You are allowed to let those relationships go that no longer serve you you're allowed to change careers, you were allowed to leave your top paying job that you have a title for something that is about less stress. How would that make you feel if you had less stress? What is the tipping point for you to make a change for the better. If you're tired at the chaotic hamster wheel if you've been stuck in a funk, if you've been in a depressive state unmotivated, feel like you're not moving forward at adding, not moving forward, and you want to move into clarity, I just kind of smashed those numbers together. Oh, what would you create? You would create this inner peace, this calmness, how would that make you feel?

My best tip for you today is to take notice of where you're at right now, how you've been feeling. Which I probably just brought a little bit of stuff up for you already. I know I have because it's what people are talking about. To me. It's even what I feel. So the key is to acknowledge those feelings, and decide right now to make a move forward that in a new way that you're not. You're not for those old feelings anymore. You're not for that lifestyle anymore. Understanding that change does take time, but it's making the first step that makes you move forward in a beautiful way that serves you. Good serves a purpose for you. What you were watching right now on social or social media or the news or what you're reading, what you're listening to for podcasts, that people we consciously are on consciously listened to. And where we're seeking advice is actually very key. And if we're looking for the advice help motivation, inspiration, what are you noticing you're following the most? Are you feeling inspired them? And why? What is it they are giving you? Essentially, you are using these people's people as mentors. And they actually provide numerous benefits to you that you may not even be aware of, you're just following to follow them because you like what they're saying. And if you go deeper, take a look at why you're actually following them and why you actually admire them why you actually admire what they're saying. And just take a mental note, the next time you're scrolling through social media, and you're getting lost and what you're seeing, if you feel love towards them, why if you feel inspiration towards them, why if you feel jealousy towards them, why, and actually, that's a good one. Because if it's jealousy, it's usually what you desire the most. Which is key. If you're looking to change something and go after something you desire. That's a very pivotal moment when you can look at somebody and be not come from it as jealousy, but of like, I really want that. But in my own way, watching what other creatives are doing in the industry all around us is a big sign of what we actually want to create on our own, we get inspired by them for a reason. One of the things that is so smart is for us to look around at the people who we admire and mentor us. And maybe they're no longer even with us on this planet anymore. But they've inspired and impact is you just certain point in life and that stuck with you. Because you can get a little piece of information from me, you can get a little piece of information from that person over there, you can get a little piece of information, where and your grandma. And all of that creates your own unique way of building this perspective on the things that you actually have expertise in and you actually desire to grow and build and create. You have a creative powerhouse inside of you. And it can be for your job or your community or your family or building something, you just got to take note of what's actually happening and why you're having all of these feelings. Clarity is powerful. And I'm trying to help you understand why you have these people in your life or why you follow them or why you admire them. Because it's there's a spark inside of you. Maybe that flame that has been barely burning. And yet, when I say all of this to you, there's like a spark of Oh, yeah, that's for you. That is for you. And if that's the one thing you get out of this, then take and run with. You can make content about your coffee shop, you can make content about your summertime bake shop, you can make content about online clothing business, a book you want to write maybe starting a new Reiki business, our healing sessions, you get inspired by other people. And we don't copy their information and stuff, we get ideas and we send it out in our own way, the way that relates and feels good to you and to others and you will just naturally draw on the people. And you will start building this community of like minded people who share this simple passion for you that can grow into something more. So if it's moms going back to college, you can find those people, they're everywhere. If you start looking. If it's a mom, starting summertime coffee shops, those people are around, you just haven't been looking for them. If you're looking to start a vlog or a blog or a podcast, YouTube channel, anything like that the there are new people starting out all the time. And it's by sharing your passion that you grow as a community and can lean on each other to move forward. Over the years I've discovered these places and spaces that feel really good to me and do really well and I do really well with like sitting in the library for 30 minutes instead of at home because at home I have so many distractions. So it's finding the place that you feel creative for so many people. They sit in their cars. Have you ever noticed on social media, all people who talk record themselves in their vehicle. It's because they in the moment they feel safe and inspired and they just go for it and it becomes a place where there's no distance reactions, and use hit send and it's there. If you are feeling this energy, when you come alive of these simple thoughts they're meant for you. If your energy feels best at home, then go with it. If your energy feels best, in a dark closet, then go for it. If your energy feels best in your vehicle, then go for it. Whatever it is, wherever it is you decide, just sit down and create and jot down notes and start with something to get you moving forward. This is your inspiration. It's your spirit, it's your, your inspired action that's waiting to come live. And when you walk out that door tomorrow morning, doing the same routine that you did, the last 10 days, they will never awaken. So you've got to make a point to make a change somewhere along the way, if before you get out of your car for work, you write some things down. And that's going to be your new routine, or talk to your notes on your phone, then do that, or whatever it may be, you have to change the pattern of what you're in to make a change towards something that you're moving toward. And although we may not feel like we have a lot of time in our day, you can take two minutes to create the thing that you're so inspired to do in that moment. If you wait, it will disappear. And then you wish you would have that's just all in the part of new patterns, new habits. And when you figure it out, then you have the ability to create on top of that piece and on top of this piece, and you finally have this foundation that's completely unique to you. And it's a perspective that's yours. And that's where it starts. All the things you do will be in your perspective. And it will help one person moving forward. And that one thing might help someone else move forward and create their dream dreams. I have succeeded in so many different things in life. And yet, I don't have all the answers, and I have my ideas. And I absorb a ton of things. But I still have to move it through my brain and how I want to present it and offer it and use my examples of how we should move forward on these things or my desire. We don't take all the things we hear and use them we take what resonates with us the most. And I don't believe that there's just one set of rules, or one person we should follow. I believe that we cross paths with the people we are meant to cross and we take what we need from them and discard the rest. I listen to podcasts, I read books, pens, sometimes they're for me, and sometimes they're not. And you can tell. And we take what we can from their inspiration and their knowledge. And we move forward. You should talk about whatever it is on your heart. And you should move forward with the thing that is like been burning inside of you. And if it's too much, and if it seems like you have all these great ideas.

This decide how you want to move forward with just one for those of you who listened to soul inspired decisions, which was created, because of all the moments in my life of making a decision based on what I was feeling in the moment to help me move forward. It was never ever a quick journey. It was the path along that journey that made it so epic and successful years later. I'm saying Go for it. Go for all the things you want. But I'm saying to you right now that don't be looking for the cheerleaders. Stop looking for the inspirational stuff that you think you need and decide that you are worth it enough to go for it. And take the challenging parts of your life and understand why they're such a challenge and what you need to shift. I challenge you to see something in yourself you not only feel is possible that but that you are willing to pick yourself up off the floor and make a move that stop making all the excuses. They're exhausting. People follow me because I don't just talk about the things I'm going to do I do that. It's not easy. I challenge Myself, I challenge the people around me, I challenge my clients. And I appreciate the perspective each and every person brings. Because it may seem a little selfish to others, but to the people I work with, it's, it's what it's on their heart. It's what's meant for them. And it's beautiful. And in this moment, the awareness that I'm bringing to you is to decide what you're looking at what you feel, and know that you're not alone and shift their perspective on how you want to get started. Notice where you've been notice where you've been at. And really just decide where you want to focus your time over the next few days to really start shaking up your pattern. He's been stuck in old patterns. If you've been stuck in old habits, decide how you're going to break out of them, because they're no longer serving you. and shift your perspective on how you want to move forward. Show your kids what you're made of show your family, what you're made of show people that dreams are possible. Their potential is your God given an ability to do that. You're beautiful, you have beautiful insight and ideas and are yours and you should own that that's the spark inside of you that's waiting to be like jolted into this expansive light that shines that will excite you that will motivate you. And as always, if you need help, I'm here to guide you. I'm here to help you reach your soul reach of potential in a new way. And all you need to do is just DM me or find me on Instagram. So underscore inspired underscore decisions. Take care my friends.
