It is time for my newest song – New Chapter.
You can listen on Spotify, Apple Music or YouTube, simply by typing “Anastasiya Goro New Chapter”.
It is a song about going through a tough transition from losing a job and therefore part of my identity, to finding strength in those darkest moments. By allowing myself to feel even the most uncomfortable feelings, I learned how to be there for myself, and to find joy in the smallest moments.
Have you noticed that most artists have hit rock bottom before they released a powerful song? I think it’s being able to see the “bad” moments as a learning opportunity and even sometimes as a positive outcome.
It should be noted that I wrote this song and produced it fully while I was going through it. Only recently I have actually started feeling much better, when this song was already done. I definitely feel like by singing about how I felt and not being scared of feeling like a “failure”,I could actually process it fully and grow from it. In fact, I feel like I manifested my current job.
Losing my previous job was the best thing that could have happened to me, yet my resistance to it made me miserable for a long time. By leaving a job that no longer aligned with my goals in life, I pursued what I truly was meant to do – life coaching.
And guess what, while pursuing this passion on my personal time, without a specific end goal in mind, I found my actual dream job. This job incorporates life coaching, mentorship, and helping others. The company is also the first one I’ve seen which provides a work environment that I truly admire and thrive in – a positive and collaborative one. They put their people before profits, and build teams that last over 2-3 years, all while being in the hospitality sector. I’ve never seen a company that allows their servers and dishwashers to pursue self development while on the job.
Anyways, I hope you too can see some positive outcome or learning opportunity if you are also going through a tough time. Everyone is different, but through all the adverse life experiences I’ve gone through, I could always see a beneficial side in retrospect.
Hope you enjoy my song!
