Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

Have you ever had a time in your life where you've been in a really tough spot?

You feel banged up, maybe your backs against the rope, and you really have to dig deep and find your courage, find your poise, find what it is you need to tap into to make a huge difference and take you from here to there,

there being a far more desirable place.

Have you ever had that experience?

I would say almost all of us have many times, right? Maybe it's a situation with work or with health, with money,

with a relationship.

When we are in that tough spot, right, when things get really bad, let's say.

Often, this is when our courage has to rise because it has no choice.

We have to get ourselves out of this situation and move toward a better one.

Maybe you can think of an example of this in your life right now.

I want to let you in on a little secret by friends.

That poise, that courage, that ability, that magic that you have to transform a situation that arises when we really need to get out of something, right?

There's something that feels dramatic and drastic.

It's there all along.

It's there all along, that capacity, that potential, what's within us. It's there all along.

Often we don't tap into it until we really, really need it because we feel kind of desperate.

And then we notice, right, we notice, ah, okay, I can transform things when they're really bad.

My mom who used to live and work in Africa in various different orphanages, she said

to me once, you know, often even the poorest family in Africa could raise money for a funeral.

There was always these untapped resources, these invisible doors,

these options that we have that we never see, that we never tap tap into because we let ourselves get desperate
