Have you ever felt like you wanted to make a big change in your life but were afraid of everything that could potentially come with making that move? Maybe, you’re okay with the fear of the unknown but you can’t come to grips with the scrutiny that you will face from others for making a pivot in your career. If that’s you, then you should go ahead, and press play on this episode because my guest is going to help light your path and bring you some much-needed clarity that will help you transform your life from the inside out!
In today’s episode of The Rutledge Perspective, I am joined by the marvelous Rebecca M. Thompson. Rebecca is a Clarity Coach for high-achieving black women and the Founder of the Live in Your Light Bootcamp, which is a transformative 3-month personal and professional executive coaching experience for high-achieving black women who want the clarity and confidence to transform their lives.
Rebecca provides us with tangible tips on how to examine our lives, gain clarity on what matters most, and then take action to make an impact. She also shares personal stories of times when she had to make transitions and pivots in her own life. As a child, Rebecca completed a summer internship working alongside a political figure that would spark her interest in politics. That shaped her goals and moves that she made from there on but a career in politics was not where she ultimately landed. She had to go through a lot of trials and tribulations to become the woman that she is today and that is someone that took the time to discover themselves and is aware that she wouldn’t be where she is if she was afraid to live life! Take this show as your permission to live life and realize that it’s okay to take multiple paths in life. You’re not a failure if something doesn’t feel right to you anymore. It’s okay to dig into those feelings and maybe make an adjustment, pivot, or shift to move into that next thing.

🔑 Get out of what is comfortable & easy and fail faster! It is supposed to be hard but it will also be joyful.
🔑 Do it afraid and don’t tell everybody. Go dark! This allows you to do the difficult things without the judgment of what people think.
🔑 There’s no such thing as permeant decisions are people.
🔑 Bonus: Please understand that the fear does not go away, you will constantly have to push past fear to live the life that you want to live.

Give yourself a chance to evaluate your life and determine if that’s the one that you want. If you feel convicted about transforming your life and making a pivot, then ask yourself this question: what’s the worst that can possibly happen?
