#050: Looking back on "I Had The Key All Along" with Caroline Strawson
Insights: Stop waiting, be bold.
There’s a moment in every woman’s mission when we realise that it’s down to us. Not because other people don’t care or aren’t interested, but because we are the only person that can accept our unique calling and respond in the unique way that only we can.
So stop waiting.
For Caroline Strawson that moment came when she recognised that only she could break free from her life-long cage of expectation; a cage compounded by her deeply traumatic experience of grief, shame and loss.
As she realised, in that moment, that no-one else was coming to rescue her, Caroline finally understood that she had held the key all along. That key opened her invisible cage and unleashed the power, deep within, to transform her life.
Looking back on our conversation, I reflect on what we can learn from Caroline’s experience of transition - from the scariest moment of her life to the moment of absolute liberation from everything that held her back.
If you’re ready to stop waiting, and to boldly step into your mission, this week’s Insights episode is for you.
