La Dolce Vita Lounge Episode 004: Update, Leaning into a multi-potential life
===
[00:00:00] Hello, beautiful soul. And welcome to episode four of the La Dolce Vita podcast. Helping you to activate more of your sweet life every day. , it's been a while. So firstly. Apologies for that. And thank you for your patience for my return. It wasn't intentional. I have quite a few episodes, guest episodes stored up, ,
Not all of them edited. That was part of the challenge. I got very excited, recorded a whole bunch of interviews. And started to gather everything to get them edited and out into the world. About 18 months ago. And. , my foundation's changed quite drastically. A couple of times in very short period of time.
And I [00:01:00] just did not have the capacity to do the conversations justice and things changed so much that I really had to lean into my multipotential world and seek more security for myself and.
I went and did a corporate contract in my other world, which is marketing and communications. . I had a plan to. Continue working in the business around that. So to do sessions online, and also to rework my course, which is something that people can do on a DIY basis and.
The universe gave me a very clear sign on the very first day of my contract. That that was not what I should be doing because I had a beautiful day. I went into the office, met my new manager that I was working with. Who's [00:02:00] the most divine, really beautiful soul. Had such a lovely day. I was, you know, when you have those days where you just feel happy, you just feel.
Sure that you've made a right decision for you. , I just bounced home. I actually walked most of the way home from the Strand to east London, which it was such a gorgeous day. It was a really, really nice day and I was so excited about this day, but, , I crossed the road, did a little skip when it got to the other side and I tore my calf.
Which apparently is an old ladies injury or old person's injury. Which the younger, the doctor who was younger than me. , by about six or seven years had also had it. So I'm not sure how true that is but yeah I couldn't move. I couldn't do the things that I knew I needed to do the things I had scheduled in, in order to take care of myself so that I could take care of the business [00:03:00] and take care of this contract.
I couldn't do them. I had to completely surrender. I had to surrender to being aken care of I could thankfully, still work remotely. But I did not have the capacity to show up in the way that I needed to for additional things like content creation.
I just couldn't I couldn't rest properly. I couldn't do that and service the other things at the same time. So it was a massive learning experience for me, it was a learning in receiving it was a learning in really truly resting doing what I was told, which I'm not always good at as a natural rebel by Gretchen Rubin's definition.
So. Yeah, I had to park this and t was frustrating because I knew they're such incredible gems just sat there that people need to hear. That's why I recorded them in the first place, but it did make me laugh when I [00:04:00] came back to start scheduling in the uploads today because I was looking.
I'm looking for, there's an episode four earmarked, which. On my website, which, I had named finding your soul path as a multipotentialite. And I can't find the episode anywhere. I don't know if I recorded it and it's gone into some editing vault somewhere. Or whether I just put it in there as a placeholder, but it's made me laugh because.
That's what I've been doing for the last 18 months, really leaning into my multi potential life. So by saying, actually I'm going to dial down this and dial up that. That is the essence of multipotential living for me and how I express it in, in my sweet life. So saying, actually, this is, this is what I need right now. And there is a need in this team. [00:05:00] That needs this skill. I'm going to go and share that. And help them and they will help me in return. What exchange is it that's needed right now. And I, you know, what do I need right now? I needed. After. Two years, however long it was two and a half years of a lot of uncertainty in my personal life, in my living situation, an awful lot of upheaval in my family situation.
I needed some security and as much as I absolutely adore my business. I needed to be taken care of in a different way and that involved going and doing a contract and. And despite the initial frustration of not being able to keep taking care of the business the way that I wanted to and had planned to. Actually having that time apart, it's a bit like any relationship. Having that time apart was exactly what we needed. I needed the space to fall back in love with it. [00:06:00] To learn what I really wanted to spend time doing or not. So I have narrowed down what I'll be inviting people to do. I needed that space. I needed that time. So I am very grateful to the universe for. Gifting me that space. I am very grateful to you for continuing to show up and listen, and to reach out as well. And I'm very grateful to all the guests for their patience as well, because there were a lot of guest episodes that were stored up in the vault. .
In the coming weeks you'll see some of those start to go out into the world. Please, if you like what you hear, , some of them are video episodes as well, so you can see what we look like. In the flesh. , Please do leave a review, reach out, let me know if anything really resonates with you. ,
Also let me know if there's [00:07:00] other things that you would like to hear from me. I love hosting these sessions. I really, really enjoy it. I love holding space for other women celebrating them and their journeys. Everyone who I've interviewed is someone who I know personally, I have some kind of relationship with I've either invested in them, traveled with them lived with them in some cases over my journey in the last 10 years. And I feel like this is why now when I'm able to reflect and say, " why did this happen?" It's actually around 10 years ago that I first started down my path of. Building an excavating my sweet life and creating that path for myself. So it feels like it is right timing. Even though it felt like it wasn't at the start. When everything came undone. But as I said this has been an opportunity to fully lean in to [00:08:00] that multi potential way of living and say, actually what's what skill is it in my toolbox now that I need? I'm going to pull that out. How can I help people?
And, really, really personify it. So, let me know, how you enjoy the episodes also, or you don't. Tell me everything. Oh, I want to hear more of this or less of that, let me know. I always love to hear feedback. I always love to hear how these things land for you, whether I'm sharing a relaxation journey meditation or hypnovisualization.
I always love to hear how they land for you. So please do get in touch. There's contact information in the show notes. I would love to hear from you. So have a sweet day and I'll speak to you soon.
