Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

I'm excited to dive in today with you about something I've been thinking about and pondering these past few months.

Is it alignment or is it avoidance? Now there has been a movement that I've noticed in the last

year, two years, three years, perhaps it's taken different forms, but it is around ease and laying

things down and allowing things to be more simple and less complicated.

And I do think, look, this is a let it be easy podcast, that alignment is a huge part of this,

but sometimes it can get a little confused with avoidance. And we're going to be speaking about this in an upcoming

in my kind of get-to-do list each day, I'm kind of pushing them back day after day.

And I'm like, oh, what is this? Like, am I being lazy right now? What's the deal? Do I need a rest? Or is this just no

longer in alignment with me? And by the way, these opportunities I need to follow up, they look

great on paper, great people, great potential, visibility, all these things. But every time

I kind of went to do it, it's like something inside me would pause and I'd

want to do something else. So this is how I determine the difference between avoidance versus alignment.
