Starting Over at 56 with Rebecca Gunter (Guest Episode, Part 1)
It’s the season for hope! Well, maybe it’s always time for hope, because when don’t we need a healthy dose of believing in new possibilities?
I don’t know about you, but I love hearing about people who have boldly stepped forward into the unknown in honor of their true desires. I love these stories because they are about being willing to walk through the mud to find out what’s on the other side.
I think it helps give permission for taking your own risks, which might be why I’m drawn to underdog stories and memoirs in general.
When I heard Rebecca Gunter was literally taking a 4,000 mile trip into the unknown, I knew I wanted you to hear the story as well. At the age of 56 she decided to take action on the dream that was decades in the dreaming.
After a marriage that ended, and a daughter that completed high school, she packed up her entire house on the east coast to move to Portland, Oregon. Not knowing how she would put gas in the car, she decided to experiment with what’s possible. Now this is MY kind of story!! haha I spoke with Rebecca two weeks before her departure date, so it was ripe with emotion and anticipation. It was also ripe with insights, wisdom and honoring that it’s uncomfortable AF when you have no idea what lies ahead.
If you’ve ever had a dream, if you’ve ever pursued a dream, if you’re sitting on a new dream right now, or perhaps don’t even know what your dream is, this conversation offers you a rare peak into what it takes to get unstuck and unlock the next chapter of your life. I truly hope you tune into The Unlock Lab this week to hear Rebecca’s incredibly inspiring story. AND, my plan is to have her back on the podcast on the other side of her cross country trip, so stay tuned for part 2.
I’m so thankful to Rebecca for saying yes to these conversations during such an emotional time. It doesn’t get more real than being right in the middle of change. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
