Finding Your Place in Life: Are You Living the Life You Actually Want?

Catherine Llewellyn reflects on conversations she has recently been having with people from her past and what these conversations have shown her about the different ways people choose to live their lives. Some people have found a life that suits them and are enjoying retirement, travel and family. Others are continuing to create, collaborate, work, learn and develop. Some are somewhere in between. Catherine explores what it means to find your place, including recognising when the life you are living is not the life you actually want. She considers the different relationships people have with work and retirement, and the importance of not living according to what we think we ought to be doing. Whether we are settled and content or uncertain about what comes next, Catherine suggests that wherever we find ourselves has value and can be the place from which the next part of our lives emerges. #FindingYourPlace #LifeChoices #TruthAndTranscendence ================== Where our conversation went: 00:14 Catching up with people from the past and discovering how differently their lives have evolved 00:57 What it means to be living the life you want 01:06 Different versions of a fulfilling life, from retirement and travel to continuing to create and develop 02:09 Finding your place, even when that place is shifting 02:47 When you know the life you want but are living something different 03:03 Recognising when you are trying to do what you think you ought to want 03:19 When you're unhappy but don't yet know why 03:28 Not knowing what to let go of or what to begin 03:38 The value of every different place we find ourselves in 03:54 Catherine's own periods of being on holiday and taking a sabbatical 04:31 Finding a mixture of creating, continuing and being on holiday 04:46 Different attitudes towards retirement and continuing to work throughout life 05:25 Finding your place and appreciating it rather than trying to meet other people's expectations 05:48 The value of acknowledging when you're not yet in a comfortable place 06:03 Uncertainty and fear as a place full of possibility 06:09 Wherever you are has value and is part of the tapestry of human life 06:25 How each state or place we experience can allow the next thing to happen 06:35 An invitation to recognise the value of wherever you are right now #podmatch #LifeTransitions #PersonalGrowth #FindingYourWay ========================= ✦ Make the most of your calling; Book an Exploratory Call with Catherine: https://beingspace.world/#explore 🤝 Join our Being Space Community ✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Podcast: https://different-points-podcast.com/ ✦ Website: https://www.beingspace.world ✦ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn ✦ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingspace.world ✦ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld ✦ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beingspace.world Support the podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate
