Yes, I know….the formal end of my ownership in the firm I founded is rapidly approaching.
Am I excited by the next chapter? Yes, yes I am.
Do I also know that I will still be involved in helping clients, mentoring and building the practice? Yes, I know that too.
But to be completely honest, I am feeling a sense of deep sadness and grieving. Yeah, I know, no one died. But it is an ending and I feel it reverberating throughout my body.
Do I believe that this feeling will dissipate as I move through the transition? Yes, I do. But right now, it’s hard to use that as leverage against sadness.
Working through the feelings by acknowledging, honoring and monitoring is part of the process for me.
I’d love to hear how you do it.
