15. I Am Discovering What Lights Me Up Affirmation

We've been taught to focus on career skills, sidelining what truly ignites our soul. Feeling stuck in your career? This isn't a mid-life crisis, and you don't need to quit your job tomorrow. This realization is a moment of rediscovering the light within you and paving the path to fulfillment and true authenticity. <br/><br/>In this episode of The Mindful Career Change, host Valerie Mekki, helps listeners rediscover what lights them up inside with an uplifting affirmation and unpack the guilt of spending time on this quest of discovery by replacing it with curiosity and excitement. We'll explore how those passions outside your nine-to-five can lead you closer to your authentic self. This isn't just about chasing dreams; it's about carving a path that resonates with who you truly are.<br/><br/>Show Notes and Timestamps:[00:00:50] Intro to the affirmation[00:01:46] We were told to focus on the skills for the job, not our innate gifts and talents[00:03:05] If you're feeling stuck in your career[00:03:49] Make time for your rediscovery[00:04:30] Priming your mind with a body scan[00:04:54] Memorize the affirmation[00:05:40] Say the affirmation out loud [00:06:24] Visualize the affirmatio[00:07:38] Making your affirmations sticky[00:08:18] How to make your affirmation sticky[00:09:15] EndCurious to learn how to make your affirmations sticky?
