Change is inevitable. Our response to change, however, is uniquely individual and under our control. We can be fearful or excited, anxious or joyful, curious or hesitant, overwhelmed or resilient…that is up to each of us.
As we journey through life, we experience different stages of womanhood. Each stage provides us with opportunities to let go of who we think we are supposed to be and embrace who we truly are. Change, if we permit it, concentrates our focus and allows us to be more attuned to ourselves and the world around us. The PRIME time of life, when we learn to give voice to our thoughts and put our dreams into action, is a phase of life marked by exploration, self-discovery, freedom and possibility.
Join Prime Time for Women for this 8-week series as we explore the many physical, emotional and lifestyle changes women experience as they journey through life. Listen to and participate in thought-provoking conversations with inspiring women who have successfully navigated change in their own lives.

Bernadette welcomes her sister Barbara Conord, a licensed professional counselor who knows first-hand the pain and struggle associated with a loved one’s addiction.

Cultivating Courage to “Be”
Is your identity tied to a title, a job description, a role you play in life? Have you explored who you are, raw and naked, attached to nothing else?

This lesson may trigger some uncomfortable emotions, so be compassionate with yourself. You cannot process your emotions unless you allow yourself to feel them. You are on a path toward freedom.

Cultivating Courage to “Change”
All personal growth involves change. Change is inevitable, but we can impact the effect of change in our lives by make conscious choices. How can we change our perceptions of change? Will we embrace it or run from it? What are the real fears at stake when confronted with change? How can we play offense to change before we are forced to change? A key concept we explore is resistance. Powerful questions, impactful habits and routines can put change into action.

Cultivating Courage to “Act”
One of the bravest things we can do is to step out in action. It’s also the thing many women fear. Will I look foolish? Be alienated? Make the wrong decision? Lose money? Hurt someone’s feelings? Overstep? To act is to speak up, to advocate for justice, to make a decision and step into our integrity. We don’t always know how our actions will be received. Action is rooted in our convictions and values. Do you know what they are?

Can you imagine being on your deathbed with that regret? What prevents us from living out our passions and our truths? Do we even know what feeds our souls and lifts our spirits? What is holding us back?
