Minisode: Trusting Yourself To Keep Going When The Path Isn't Clear
01 Sep 2025
I recorded this from Block Island after the most incredible experience that perfectly captures what it means to find clarity in midlife and learn how to trust the process when you can't see the whole path ahead.In this episode, I share the story of my unexpected run to a lighthouse that became the perfect metaphor for allowing yourself to trust yourself. If you've been struggling with finding clear direction in midlife, wondering how to move forward when you can't see the entire journey, or learning to trust your intuition when everything feels uncertain, this episode will resonate deeply.I dive into why having a vision (your lighthouse) changes everything about how you navigate uncertainty, how to keep moving toward your goals even when obstacles obscure your path, and why trusting the process is crucial for anyone creating their next chapter after 40.Episode Highlights & Key TakeawaysYou Don't Need the Complete RoadmapFinding clarity in midlife starts with glimpsing your vision - your lighthouse - not having everything figured out. When you catch sight of what calls to you, start moving toward it even if you can't see the whole path.Obstacles Are Part of the JourneyLearning how to trust the process means understanding that potholes, detours, and moments when you lose sight of your goal aren't failures - they're just the reality of any meaningful journey toward clear direction in midlife.Trust Yourself During Dark DaysTrusting yourself after 40 includes having faith during moments when your vision gets completely obscured. Keep moving forward based on your last clear sight of where you want to go.What You Achieve Will Exceed Your VisionWhen you finally reach what you've been working toward through clarity and persistence, the reality will be more massive and incredible than what you originally envisioned.🔗 Connect With Me🌐 Website: amcostanzo.com📌 Pinterest: acostanzo📸 Instagram: aging.fiercely💬 Let's Continue the ConversationWhat's your lighthouse right now?
