There’s often a gap between knowing who you want to become and actually showing up as that woman in your everyday life. And that’s exactly what we’re closing in this week’s Summer Secret.

Welcome to The Self-Creation School podcast, for women who are ready to ditch mediocrity, step up and get more of what they want, and finally say YES! to a life that sets their soul on fire. I’m your host Leanne Letica, Self-Creation Coach, founder of The Self-Creation School AND Queen of YES!. If you’re ready to play life by your own personal rule book, and give yourself permission to say YES! to yourself and your wildest dreams, this podcast is the place for you.

Hello and welcome to week eleven of my Summer Secrets Series. We are in the home stretch now. Just three episodes left, including this one. I hope you’ve been feeling the momentum building through this series.

By the way, if you’re new here, these secrets do build upon each other. So you’ll get the most value listening through from week one.

Last week, we talked about defining your next season identity. Getting clear on who you’re becoming and creating those powerful “I am becoming someone who” statements. But likely, there’s a gap between that vision and your everyday reality.

Maybe you want to be someone who prioritizes her well-being, but you’re still skipping lunch to answer emails. Or someone with boundaries that support you, but you still say YES! to things that drain you. Or someone who trusts her intuition, but you’re still second-guessing every decision.

Here’s what I want for you to understand. That gap is completely normal. And it doesn’t mean you are failing or that version of you isn’t possible. The truth is, you don’t become that you overnight. You become her one small YES! at a time.

Listen, in every moment of your day you’re either saying YES! to being the woman you’ve been or YES! to being the woman you want to be. And I’ve found that long-lasting transformation happens best, not in the big dramatic shifts, but in the small, seemingly ordinary choices that you make every single day.

The woman you want to become has different habits than the you of now. She has different responses to stress. She prioritizes differently. She thinks about what’s possible for her life differently. She treats herself differently.

But you don’t have to become her perfectly all at once. And this week I want you to let go of this self-imposed timeline and pressure of an all-or-nothing approach. Instead, just practice saying YES! to being her one choice at a time every single day.

Maybe today it’s choosing to set your daily intentions over breakfast instead of scrolling social media. Maybe tomorrow it’s speaking up for yourself instead of people-pleasing. Maybe the day after it’s setting a boundary you’ve been avoiding or choosing thoughts that empower you instead of limit you. Maybe it’s responding to challenges by asking, “What can I learn from this?” instead of, “Why does this always happen to me?”

What’s important is that each time you make a choice that aligns with who you’re becoming rather than who you’ve been, you are reinforcing your next season identity. You’re making her real. You’re integrating her into your life right now just one YES! to her choices at a time.

But again, you don’t have to step into her shoes all at once. In fact, I really don’t recommend that you do. So this week I want you to choose just one micro-habit that your next season identity would do daily and commit to doing it for the entire week.

It could be as simple as five minutes of morning reflection, or drinking a glass of water before checking your phone, or ending your workday with three things you’re grateful for.

Whatever it is for you, start small. Choose something doable, something that the woman you’re becoming would naturally do. And then say YES! to being her through that one simple action every day this week. Of course, then you can rinse and repeat until you become that version of you.

Remember, you become who you want to be just one YES! to that you at a time. And every single YES!, no matter how big or small, matters.

That’s this week’s Summer Secret.

We are almost at the end of this journey together. But do make sure you hit subscribe for our final two secrets and join the Summer Secrets email series at https://selfcreationschool.com/created for a reminder to listen in.

I’ll see you next Wednesday for another Summer Secret.

Until then, be the woman who says YES!.
