Overcoming Job Loss: A Motivational Story

What would you do if you lost your job today? (Save this reel to help you build that dream life!) When I lost my job I cried, got angry, cried some more, wandered around in a daze excited for the freedom one second and absolutely mortified about what the heck I was actually gonna do about it the next second. I started hiking a couple times a week and one day I was really in my head about life and what was next. When we made it to the top I pulled myself to the side and took a moment to talk out loud to myself. I sat on a rock overlooking the alpine lake I just spent all morning working hard to get to and told myself “This is it Nikki. This is the universe giving you the biggest permission slip in the world to go for it. Do what you’ve always wanted to and don’t ignore this opportunity. You climb freaking mountains one step at a time so why can’t you climb this metaphorical one the same way?!” And then I promised myself I was gonna commit. And I did it. The universe isn’t always going to give you giant signs telling you what to do but your gut will! Follow that feeling and maybe one day you’ll be living out a wild dream and can look back at your past self and say thank you for giving this to me.
