Your Life is a Kaleidoscope.

Remember in your 20’s when landing your first real job that paid you a salary and had benefits??Those were maybe the only things important to you at the time.

Moving into your 30’s with shifting priorities, maybe finding the best partner and raising children, or finding your first home was where you pointed your arrow.?Also, growing into awareness how you shape the world around you may have become more clear.

These are part of adult development, and our career dances along our journey so much more powerful & integral to our wholeness than we realize.?Until we start digging into our true magic.

The visual of magic colors playing together inside the kaleidoscope is a perfect image for how different pieces come to life with each vibrant color taking precedence over others.?This is how we move through life, tending to each priority as our life shifts from one chapter to another.

Let's follow the image shared by Dr. Hayley Lewis.

Authenticity ~ We want to know and live in our true selves because that is where the magic lies.?Discovering the colors that make up who we truly are can seem scary, but living life outside of our authentic selves is even worse.?The fear is worth pushing through so we can pack our tool kit and design the future we want.

Challenge ~ Human beings are wired for purpose.?We innately need to be of value, to be impactful and to connect.?Knowing how to use our authentic tools in a way that shapes creativity and connection, productivity and impact allows us to find increasing challenge as we grow into each step in our journey.?The closure of one challenge leads to the next.

"Downtime allows discovery, of self, of strength, of peace."

~Carrie Geyer

Balance ~ Stress can come from being too challenged causing overwhelm and pressure that gets released through a variety of coping mechanisms.?Downtime allows discovery, of self, of strength, of peace.?We seek work & play, joy & focus, sleep & exercise for our body, brain and soul.

We move through our lives calibrating and shifting through the colors in the kaleidoscope.?This is the beautiful colors of each of us combined together making the most magical mosaics as one.
