Balance & The Unknown
Dear Soul Sister,
Welcome to October, a month where we explore the art of Balance and Embracing the Unknown. As the seasons deepen into fall and the days grow shorter, this is a powerful time to reflect on how we navigate uncertainty while staying grounded. Let’s get into how to find harmony in the midst of the unknown and embrace it as a path to growth.
Before we dive in, I want to take a moment to honor my dad. October is his birthday month, and though he’s no longer with us, his life and legacy continue to inspire me every day. Navigating life without him, physically, has been one of the most profound UNKNOWNS I’ve ever faced. Losing someone so central to my world left me feeling unhinged at times, but it also taught me the depths of resilience and love. Daddy, happy birthday. I honor your life and carry your lessons with me always. 💕
Life is full of unpredictability. Plans change, challenges arise, and sometimes we find ourselves standing at a crossroads without a clear map. The unknown can feel intimidating, but it’s also where magic happens. It’s where new opportunities emerge, where we discover resilience, and where we learn to trust ourselves.
Let’s talk about it: I’ll never forget leaving a long-term relationship; I felt completely untethered. This major life transition had me questioning everything; my goals, my relationships with EVERYONE, even my sense of self. At first, the uncertainty of life without this person felt overwhelming. But as I leaned into it, I began to see it as an invitation to reimagine my path. By embracing the unknown, I found clarity and strength I didn’t know I had.
How do you typically react to uncertainty? What would it feel like to welcome the unknown as a friend rather than a foe?
Let’s BE about it:
1. Focus on What You Can Control
When life feels unpredictable, grounding yourself in what you CAN control can help. Whether it’s your morning routine, your mindset, or your self-care practices, small anchors can create a sense of stability.
2. Practice Mindful Acceptance
Uncertainty doesn’t have to be solved; sometimes, it simply needs to be acknowledged. Allow yourself to sit with the unknown without rushing to fix it. Trust that clarity will come in time.
3. Reframe Fear as Possibility
The unknown often comes with fear, but it also holds infinite potential. Instead of asking, What could go wrong? try asking, What amazing things could happen? Shift your focus to possibility and see how it transforms your outlook.
October’s Challenge: Step into the unknown with intention. Choose one area of your life where uncertainty is present and take a small, bold step forward. Maybe it’s pursuing a new opportunity, starting a conversation you’ve been avoiding, or letting go of something that no longer serves you. Celebrate the courage it takes to move forward. Growth lives on the other side of uncertainty, and YOU ARE READY.

With peace & SO much love,
Coach Lori
