Go- Wait!
Aug 30, 2025Go, wait
GIVE, receive
If I know you.
Your default operating style is
GO
GIVE
You’re not great with WAIT (ie; patience)
And pretty bad at RECEIVE (the art of allowing others to give to you)
And so what does the GO, GIVE woman get?
Well… a lot of success.
Many achievements in the form of money, position, accolades, experiences.
And… a lot of people who become used to her ‘gifts’- her time, her tolerance, her working around others’ mistakes, her forgiveness, her support.
And so she… the GO, GIVE woman.
She eventually finds herself depleted.
Tired.
Resentful.
Overwhelmed.
Trapped.
And (this one may not be what you see coming)… lost.
After years of GOING and GIVING she can find herself either so tethered to what and who she’s built that she can’t see her way out or once she knows it’s time to release the GO, GIVE pattern she has no friggin clue what SHE actually wants- or who SHE actually is..
She often wonders, who am I if I’m not going or giving out of habit anymore?
Who might you be if you leaned into waiting… listening… and receiving… being supported?
It’s a weird new posture.
So weird that most women never stand in it for long.
And it’s true… a race horse needs to run.
But at some point… there are so many other ways to express all of your energy.
But first.
We have to stand still for a moment and realize the you, you have been, is not the you, you are becoming.
And this is a good thing.
There’s magic in the stillness of the in between.
And if this message resonates then you may just be her.
A woman who has built a dream life and business come true and now you know there’s something else.
But GO and GIVE are no longer leading the way.
It’s time to WAIT.
To breath.
To allow.
And to receive the whispers from your own wisdom you’ve been collecting for so many years.
To allow others to nurture you, support you.
And to invest in YOU.
Not the business.
Not the team.
But the woman you are becoming… one, who once you truly listen to… will absolutely reveal to you, the beautiful path that lies ahead.
