Navigating change and lost your routine? 

I've just recently shifted out of having a paid part-time job with standard hours etc to being fully self-employed.

This shift has totally changed up my routine.

I no longer have a reason to walk the same route that I used to.

It's now harder for me to get to the gym to workout.

I have less in-person connection, so I need to put in more effort to meet people in-person (I need to be around people to regulate well, without this my capacity to do things greatly drops)

So things that I was doing effortlessly two months ago are trickier right now. 

A few things are helping me in this transition… 

  • I'm trialling new routines and practices to see what I enjoy - eg. I tried having two day-time walks vs. a longer one 

  • I'm body doubling when I can - aka working with a friend in-person or online 

  • I'm staying open to new experiences - I thought I'd hate working in a library but I love it for the connection and structure 

  • I'm giving myself grace and compassion by reminding myself that it's hard to have a change in routine

  • I'm getting support from my network 🖤

Doing what you want, sometimes means disappointing others, and that’s an uncomfortable experience to have.
