Expansion is so fun, especially in the dreaming stage. But what about when the ball starts rolling and expansion actually starts happening? Not only are there new opportunities and experiences and all the things you dreamed of, there’s also a lot of other unexpected details that weren’t on your vision board  - new responsibilities, new expectations, new deliverables, and more pressure. The key to this stage of expansion is to learn how to stretch without snapping. Today I’ll take you through the mindset shifts and nervous system approaches I’m using as I experience this in my own expansion (because yes, I’m experiencing this right now!). We’ll talk about: The different stages of expansion Navigating your inner critic as you expand How to distinguish between pressure that is building you and pressure that is breaking you down The big question: What does this season require from you in service of your goals? Check out this recent episode is Samantha Raynar to go deeper on how to face the unexpected challenges that can arise with expansion. DM Me about how you’re navigating unexpected experiences in your expansion @erintreloar on Instagram! Join me as I moderate An Intimate Evening with Sophie Grégoire Trudeau Sept 22nd in Vancouver: https://www.worthassociation.com/an-intimate-evening-with-sophie-gregoire-trudeauIf you’re ready for expansion and want to do it within an incredible community of women, join us inside of The Expansive Mastermind. Join Erin at the Expansive Retreat Oct 23-25 in Santa Monica, CA! Join the Waitlist for The Expansive Community Subscribe to the podcast to make sure you never miss an episode. Connect with Erin:⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠WebsiteSupport Our Sponsors: HIYA KIDS VITAMINS - Get 50% off your first order of Hiya’s best-selling kid’s daily multivitamin by visiting  www.hiyahealth.com/erin.

In Episode 8, the final installment of Erin’s Expansive Series, we’ll explore the piece that brings everything that we’ve talked about in this series together: Action. Expansion doesn’t happen from just thinking about it. Manifestation and regulating your nervous system can only take you so far. Expansion requires taking consistent actions aligned with your goal. Even if you don’t know everything. Even if you don’t feel ‘ready’. Today we’ll explore how. You’ll learn: How taking action delivers clarity to your vision (check out Dairyboy’s journey for an example!) “What is your next best step?” Why small consistent actions are what really move the needle on expansion Shifting your focus away from outcomes and toward your identity What changes in your outlook when you eelebrate every aligned step Your permission to want moreIf you’re ready for expansion and want to do it within an incredible community of women, join us inside of The Expansive Mastermind. Join Erin at the Expansive Retreat Oct 23-25 in Santa Monica, CA! Join the Waitlist for The Expansive Community Subscribe to the podcast to make sure you never miss an episode. Connect with Erin:⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠WebsiteSupport Our Sponsors: BIOOPTIMIZERS - Get 15% off any order by visiting https://bioptimizers.com/erinJONES ROAD BEAUTY - Get a free Cool Gloss on your first purchase when you use the code ERIN at checkout https://www.jonesroadbeauty.com/TUMBLE RUGS - Get 10% plus free shipping by visiting https://www.tumbleliving.com/erinHELLOFRESH - Go to hellofresh.ca and use the code RAWBEAUTYTALKS for 50% off your next order. KNIX - Go to knix.com and use code RAWBEAUTYTALKS for 20% off your next order.MITOPURE GUMMIES - Go to ⁠Timeline.com/ERIN⁠ and use the code ERIN for 20% off.
