Summary

I love what Brene Brown says about being over 40, "All these pretending and performing coping mechanisms that you've developed to protect yourself from feeling inadequate and getting hurt--have to go. Time is growing short. There are unexplored adventures ahead of you. You were born worthy of love and belonging. Courage and daring are coursing through you. You were made to live and love with your whole heart." If you are ready for a challenge that makes you confront the things in your life that you're ready to change, join us for THRIVE IN MIDLIFE! The trainings for THRIVE IN MIDLIFE will be NOON to 1pm EST daily from June 12 to 14. Can’t make it live? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!

0:00.0	Hello and welcome back to the podcast where you are invited for lighthearted conversations
0:05.5	about things that matter as you seek to live your most meaningful, beautiful, and joyful life.
0:10.8	I'm your host, Dr. Edie Wadsworth, and I hope you enjoy your stay here at the House of Joy.
0:17.0	Hey, dear one, Dr. Eadie here. Welcome back to the podcast. Episode 204. We are talking about getting out of your
0:23.7	comfort zone today. Listen, I know it's scary, but nothing great happens in your comfort zone.
0:31.4	I mean, actually, some great things do happen in your comfort zone, but I will tell you this.
0:35.6	There is so much more waiting for you in your
0:38.5	life when you are willing to step into your discomfort zones. We're going to talk about it today.
0:43.3	I've got a couple stories to share that I think will help you kind of see where you might be
0:48.5	keeping yourself stuck. I think one of the reasons, too, honestly, that we stay in our comfort zones
0:53.2	is because that's the way our brains are wired.
0:55.0	Our brains like to keep us safe. We want to stay safe. We want to avoid pain. We want to seek pleasure.
1:02.9	And so it's easy to kind of get to this point in life where you're like, okay, things aren't too bad.
1:08.2	So I think I'll just stay here. But here's what I find, especially for women in
1:11.9	midlife, is we get to that place because we have so many limiting beliefs that we don't even know of,
1:20.1	that we don't even acknowledge. We have grown up thinking that we are just this kind of person
1:25.3	who does this kind of thing. This is how I've been my whole life.
1:29.1	I'm not going to be able to change this now. And we get to this point where there are a lot of things
1:33.3	in our life that we would like to change and we just feel like it's not possible. I hear this all the time
1:39.3	from clients in my coaching program, who never thought they would be able to get healthy again, who never thought
1:45.1	they would be able to get strong, who never thought they'd be good with money, who never thought
1:48.6	they would write a book, who never thought they would, you know, create amazing relationships. And I
