Ep. 188: The Invisible Rules Holding You Back

Have you ever found yourself saying, "Maybe next year," or "When life settles down"?

For years, I believed I had to wait until the timing was perfect before I could truly enjoy my life, pursue my dreams, or put myself on the list. What I eventually realized was that I wasn't waiting for better circumstances—I was waiting for permission.

In this episode of the Maybe I Can podcast, I'm sharing the four permission slips that transformed the way I approach caregiving, grief, joy, uncertainty, and personal growth. From taking my first girls' trip at 50 to writing my memoir while my husband was battling terminal cancer, these moments taught me that life doesn't begin after our responsibilities end—it happens right now.

We'll talk about:

• Why guilt shouldn't make your decisions
• How to stop waiting for perfect timing
• Why you don't need everything figured out before taking the next step
• The invisible rules that may be keeping you stuck
• How one small permission slip can change your life

If you've been putting your dreams, happiness, or healing on hold, I hope this conversation encourages you to give yourself permission to begin.
