Episode 105
Listen to “Regrouping After a Setback”.
Regrouping after a setback can feel a lot like working through a 12-step recovery program. After we go through all the feelings, frustrations, and possible workarounds, we still have to craft a new way forward that keeps us from falling into old patterns – while freeing up space to process and heal.
It can be a lot to balance, especially when the setback comes as a total surprise.
Regrouping after a setback can also make us question ourselves and every step along our paths up until this point. For example, many of us grow up with the idea of creating a foundation we work towards, crafting it to last a lifetime. In reality, we often end up boxing ourselves in and trick ourselves into thinking this is our grounding and safety, when it’s not true. The foundation we build for ourselves in a mind, body, and spirit sense is what gives us the tools to breathe, expand, adapt, change, and grow. It also sparks our confidence and offers access to all the selfcare tools we need to move forward and transform our foundation into something that works for us in the now.
On the latest episode of the Flirting With Enlightenment podcast, I talk about the energy of a setback and ways we can feel challenged in the mind, body, and spirit as a result. Whether we experience a setback from a personal or professional standpoint, or both, it can make us question ourselves, the path forward, and second guess every decision we’ve made up until this point. I also discuss the unique level of personal power regrouping after a setback can offer, as it helps reveal what we truly want and the patterns up for challenge and change.
In addition, I talk about the perception of a “foundation” and a sense of safety in life, while creating a healthy perspective around the idea of change and flexibility. Lastly, I offer suggestions on supportive and healthy ways to manage the energy of a setback in order to heal, process, and get back on your feet equipped with deeper understanding and clarity. Then, create from a new space of awareness, talents, and lessons.
