From Discontent to Gratitude: Mastering Life’s Transitions with Makina Sage’s Roadmap

The course, led by Coach Edina and featuring Makena Sage, focuses on how to navigate through the natural cycles of death and rebirth that occur in life’s transitions, whether in one’s career, business, or personal life. Makina Sage has developed a roadmap called the “Rebirth Roadmap” that outlines the stages one may go through during these transformative periods.

Makena shares her personal experiences and insights as both a life and business coach. She aims to support individuals who feel like they’re reinventing themselves and to provide a guide to understanding what to expect and how to handle the changes. The roadmap is not only a tool for navigation but also serves to make one feel less alone during the process.

The course introduces seven stages within the Rebirth Roadmap, which are:

1. Discontent: Feeling like something needs to change.
2. Wake up Call: The realization that change is required.
3. Turmoil and Questioning: Doubting decisions and questioning the direction of the change.
4. Acceptance/Resting Point: Accepting the change is occurring and fostering trust that everything will be okay.
5. Clarity: Gaining insight into what one wants and the new path ahead.
6. Excitement and Inspiration: Feeling motivated about the future and the change.
7. Gratitude: Reflecting positively on the change and being grateful for the experience, including a focus on forgiveness.

Makena emphasizes the importance of leaning into the process, which means being willing to face the fact that change is occurring and consciously navigating through it. She advises on trusting one’s intuition, using self-reflection tools (like journaling and meditation), and ensuring alignment with one’s core values throughout the transition.

Additionally, she introduces the idea of being “in the mush”, a stage where everything feels confusing, and one doesn’t fully know what’s on the other side of the transition. Dealing with this mush effectively and not getting stuck in it is crucial for a smoother and quicker rebirth.

The course also addresses the importance of forgiveness, not only towards others but also towards oneself. Forgiving oneself for not acting sooner or for past mistakes is seen as an essential part of the healing process and in moving forward to complete the cycle of rebirth.

Towards the end, Makena provides various resources for further learning and support, including:
An extended, free visualization available on her website, along with the roadmap and journaling questions.
The “World Changer Quiz,” designed to help individuals understand their primary talents and motivations.
A comprehensive program called Phoenix, which aids individuals through these transitions in more depth.

Ultimately, the course is designed to empower people to not only make it through significant life transitions but to thrive as they align more closely with their soul’s path.=
