As women, we receive so much messaging about how big our lives are allowed to be. Whether it's patriarchy, childhood conditioning, or the communities we're part of, many women learn that being convenient, optimistic, and helpful makes them lovable. Even though it isn't true, that influence often keeps us from living our lives in a bigger way. In this episode, we explore the signs that your life is too small for you and how you can start to live a life that's as honest and expressive as you want. Here's what I cover: How to recognize when your life has become too small by how your body feelsThe most common signs that you're ready to take your life to the next levelWhy your dreams feeling impossible or selfish is a signal that you're ready for changeHow resentment and irritation can show up under the surface when you feel stuck in a small lifeHow emotional suppression can lead to real issues that affect women's healthAn example of how my life changed when I learned how to say what needed to be saidSign up for the FREE WORKSHOP on July 22nd: https://pages.sarafisk.coach/say-it-jul-2025 Find Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

Mortality Marble Jar: Karen introduces a visual monthly ritual—removing a marble for each month left in your projected life—which brings heightened appreciation and increased mindfulness to each day. Building Meaningful Relationships: Why time spent intentionally with those you love, and the ripples you leave, matter above all else.
