Today on Feminine Roadmap guest Lydia Dean, co-founder of gophilanthropic.org, shares how she learned to listen to her inner voice and how that dramatically changed the trajectory of her family’s life. Lydia, now in midlife, looks back over her 20 year journey and brings practical steps to help us learn how to listen to our inner voice aside from the external pressures and expectations. She encourages listeners to take a courageous journey, one that may be difficult, different, uncomfortable and most likely unknown. Instead she challenges us with, “Don’t accept not knowing as an excuse for not doing.” While everyone’s journey is different and the paths we take are nothing alike, she points us to listen to our inner voice and break the barriers between the life we’re living and the life that could be truer to who we are. Sure taking this journey to heed that inner voice, follow your dreams and life path might bring up fear and vulnerability but Lydia asks us to ask ourselves a couple of key questions, “Why should I fly beneath my radar? What am I holding back on?” We are not asked to figure it all out at step one, just take the first step you can see. The first step? Grab a cuppa something wonderful and listen in as Lydia shares practical strategies and real life examples of how those strategies may look.
