Feeling stuck can come from unprocessed grief

The other day I had a creative block. My mind simply decided it wanted to be blank. I felt really stuck and frustrated. After a while I gave myself some space to become curious - not about my feelings of frustration, but about the block itself. What was it trying to tell me?

What I found out was that this block was a part of me who was grieving a situation that didn’t go as I had hoped. And because I hadn’t acknowledged how much that situation had impacted me, I couldn’t move forward on some creative things I wanted to do.

Once I realized that was what was going on, I let myself feel and process my grief and frustration. I immediately felt lighter after and amazingly the block was lifted.

In order to move forward from our stuck spaces we have to listen to the parts of us who need to grieve. It’s not super fun - and it’s what opens us up to our next possibilities.

I have availability in my coaching schedule if you want support as you get unstuck. I’m here for you.
