The reality is no one’s success is solo. Our family should not be our obstacle. We do not need to choose to be a mother OR be successful, and doing both shouldn’t mean we shut off who we are to do the impossible. If your husband wanted to make a big decision to benefit him, he would say to you, “this is what I’m doing”, and YOU would make it work. HE is capable of helping you make your needs work, too, but you have to give him that opportunity. Perhaps he will be resistant, and his face will malfunction, but WILL HE DIE? I am guessing not.

Here are the facts. You have wants, needs, and goals, and they are NOT unreasonable. If you have been trying to meet those wants, goals, and needs but keep tripping over the same obstacle (which for women is usually dropping our needs for our family’s needs), you need to do something different. No matter how many times you walk into that wall, it will not move. YOU have to move around it. It’s time to stop asking for permission. “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” (fun fact that is not an einstein quote).

Okay, Sophie, but how? Tune in and find out!
