Transformation often feels foreign to many of us midlife moms, yet we dream about it. We subconsciously tell ourselves that transformation is only for the lucky ones. This limiting belief kept me trapped in a cage of self-doubt and fear.
At the end of the day, you might find yourself in the mirror, hoping for a change. Sorry to deliver bad news - no one can change your life but you. To change your life for the better, you must first transform yourself.
Your past doesn’t define you, and I know you’re a strong woman capable of making a difference in the future. I want to support you with the 7 ‘tion’ steps to transform yourself and your life.

Understanding Transformation
Let’s explore what transformation means. It simply means a change - whether in how you look, think, or act.
We often fall into the trap of believing transformation must be monumental, but it’s the micro changes that lead you to the desired outcome. In Japan, we say, “Chiri mo tsumoreba yama to naru,” meaning a mountain formed by accumulating tiny dust.
Every step you take shapes your transformation - let’s dive in and make it happen!
Step 1: Attention
The first step is to pay attention to where you are in your life. This might be uncomfortable, but there’s no transformation without clarity. The most critical aspect is connecting with yourself, nature and others to raise self-awareness.
This step emphasizes self-care, which you’ve been neglecting. Soon, you’ll start hearing a small voice or feeling a gut instinct to help you make the right decisions.
Step 2: Intuition
Once you connect with yourself, nature, and others, you’ll notice intuitive signals—whether whispers, a gut feeling, spiritual animals, or bodily sensations. These are your intuition's navigational tools. Believe in yourself and trust your intuition.
Always listen to your heart/intuition rather than what’s in your head!
Step 3: Imagination
Tap into your inner child and embrace the power of imagination. Ask yourself ‘what if…’ or ‘I wonder how…’ questions. Be curious about your infinite possibilities. Imagination is your best tool to awaken your dreams!
Doesn’t it make you excited just thinking about it?
Step 4: Education
Your dream may require new skills and knowledge to make it happen. Although this may be daunting, consider this as an opportunity to open new doors. Invest in your growth to become a better version of yourself, rather than spending on things that don’t even matter for your exciting journey!
Become a lifetime learner and be the person you have always dreamed of.
Step 5: Determination
Your determination is the key to taking consistent action. Ask yourself, “Why do I want or need to do this?” Your answer will fuel your motivation even when challenges arise.
Make a commitment not only to yourself but also as a way to inspire and uplift others.
Step 6: Execution
With clarity on what you need to transform, you’re equipped with goals, plans, and determination. Now, it’s time to execute. Take action and stay flexible, steadily working towards your desired outcomes.
Every action plan needs completion to see a result!
Step 7: Celebration
Celebrate every win, no matter how small. Acknowledging your wins keeps the momentum going and boosts your self-esteem.
Hug yourself, pat on your shoulder, or congratulate yourself as you would the best friend: “Great job!” “You did it!” “I knew you could do it!”
Conclusion:
If you wish to transform your life, you must first become the person who can achieve the life you desire. The 7 ‘tion’ steps—attention, intuition, imagination, education, determination, execution, and celebration—will guide you on your transformation journey.
Remember to stay flexible and adjust the steps according to your needs. Only you can create the life you REALLY want!💕
