WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF SUCCESS?

I lived the life I was told I should be living for far too long. Ticking off the boxes of what societies idea of having it all together looked like. 

I got the degree, purchased the cute little house with the white picket fence. Rode transit everyday from my yuppie inner city digs to my 9-5 office dream job downtown. Weekend trips away and my 2.5 weeks of holidays a year. 

It didn’t fit.

A tense ball in my belly reminded me everyday that something was off.

That everything was off.

That the dream wasn’t mine, the idea of success wasn’t mine. That none of it was mine….that living in the glass box society deemed as having it all together was actually suffocating & killing the passionate free spirit I had always prided myself on being. 

That my idea of success actually resided in a life of freedom and fluidity. That what was actually mine was living a life on my terms. Nobody else’s.  

Does it feel like you are living someone else’s dream? Living a life you’ve been told to live?

Through doing the deep dives and working with coaches & mentors I’ve created a life that is on my terms. Nobody else’s. I’ve aligned with my soul, my truth & what it is I came here to do…..

All while living a life of freedom, being able to pack up and move out to the mountains, doing my work from where ever I choose to be. Success on my terms. 

What is success on your terms….not what boxes society has told you to tick off?
