Sometimes things can feel SO hard. ⁠ ⁠ What ar

Sometimes things can feel SO hard. ⁠
⁠
What are you supposed to be doing? ⁠
What are reasonable expectations for you to have? ⁠
What's realistic vs not so much? ⁠
Shouldn't you just be grateful for what you have?⁠
Is it really possible to do things differently? ⁠
What will they say about you if you change or grow? ⁠
What will they think about you? ⁠
⁠
Does this conversation sound familiar? For those of you that may lean into the anxious, people pleasing, perfectionistic tendencies, this probably sounds HELLA familiar. ⁠
⁠
Here's your Monday reminder that you get to live in way that serves YOU. You don't have to just suck it up or accept what's been laid out for you by others. ⁠
⁠
You are safe to both appreciate all that you have and all that you are, while also wanting or working for more. It's not an either or. Share with a friend who could use this loving reminder tonight!

REPEAT, REPEAT, REPEAT! ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ What happens

REPEAT, REPEAT, REPEAT! ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
What happens when you take responsibility for the reactions and emotions of everyone around you is that you start to feel like you're walking on egg shells. You're not allowed to be yourself. You're not allowed to have needs, wants, preferences or opinions. It can feel suffocating, scary, not to mention EXHAUSTING. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
There are so many reasons that you might fall into this belief or tendency so as always, welcome in compassion for yourself as you unlearn this. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If you allowed yourself to tune into yourself, take radical ownership of your own needs, and go out into the world as your best self, while releasing the need for everyone else to agree, approve or feel pleased by you all the time, what would change? ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Looking for support around how to release this iunhelpful tendency so you can connect deeper with your true self, alleviate anxiety and approach your life from a whole new perspective? DM me to learn more about ways we can work together ASAP! ⁠⁠

Ya ever get that inkling that something just isn't

Ya ever get that inkling that something just isn't right in a relationship, no matter the kind?⁠
⁠
Part of you knows that you don't feel good when you're around this person or trying to connect with this person, and yet for some reason it feels hard to discern what's going on?⁠
⁠
Sometimes when you're so invested in a relationship, another person, or an idea you have of that other person, it can be challenging to identify and acknowledge when a relationship has become unhealthy. ⁠
⁠
Being in an unhealthy relationship can significantly impact your mental health, your overall well-being and cause you to question yourself. ⁠
⁠
Letting go of unhealthy relationships can be really hard, but dang is it important to learn how to do. #trustyourself You are worthy of love, and healthy relationships that lift you up!⁠

Sorry to break it to ya, but it's true. #feelingal

Sorry to break it to ya, but it's true. #feelingallthefeels might actually help you in the long run - when you do it with intention, mindfulness and curiosity. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
How many times have you had the experience where you've tried to brush past something that was coming up for you - the mounting stress, the jabs from a partner, the sadness as you're grieving - and then one day, seemingly out of no where, it hits you like a tidal wave that you can't avoid??? Everything just hits at once and it feels even more overwhelming. Every little thing is now a BIG thing...⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Being with, looking at, getting curious with yourself, your emotions and your thoughts will help you in SO many ways. You can learn. You can heal. You can give yourself permission to feel it. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Remember - no emotion is permanent, and we are all "in process." ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Think of it as the beauty of living, the joy of becoming more and more you through your life experiences. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The next time you feel like you should just push down how you're feeling to get on with your life, come back to this post. Save it for your toolbox on those hard days! ⁠⁠

"Can't you just TELL me what I should do?!" ⁠
⁠
Ever find that you constantly question yourself? You double check with someone before every decision. You wish someone else could just tell you what to do so that you have clarity on how to move forward, and if things don't work out, well then, it wasn't really your fault??⁠
⁠
Maybe you look at others who seem to move through life so sure of themselves wondering how they do it, and questioning what's "wrong" with you that you can't be like them? ⁠
⁠
Maybe you tell yourself that you're just not ______ (cool, smart, creative, worthy, unique, calm) enough to actually be a self confident and self trusting person. ⁠
⁠
I work with so many clients who feel paralyzed by their self doubt, constant anxiety, LOUD self criticism and comparison to others. ⁠
⁠
I'm here to tell you that "confidence" is, and isn't the answer. TONIGHT at 7:30pm ET I'm hosting a FREE WORKSHOP talking about why so many find themselves living from this mentality, how it impacts your mental and emotional health and 4 steps you can take to develop more self confidence and self trust (in a non-icky, genuine way 😉 ). ⁠

"But what if it doesn't work out?" ⁠ "What if I

"But what if it doesn't work out?" ⁠
"What if I look like an idiot?"⁠
"What if they think X about me?" ⁠
⁠
This question comes up a lot... What if you really try, stand for your values, go after a life that is truly aligning and meaningful to you, and things don't work out perfectly? ⁠
⁠
Well, then you will have lived a life where you stood for, and went after what mattered to you (!!!!!)⁠
⁠
Sip on that one today! ⁠
⁠
I know the thought of disappointment, criticism, failure, or embarrassment can feel daunting. It can fill you with the looming anxiety, dread and discontent that just seems to linger. ⁠
⁠
But in pursuit of emotional well-being, mental health, and heck, overall life satisfaction, taking risks and standing for what matters to you, +++ who and how you want to be during your time on this lovely planet is SO impactful! ⁠
⁠
I'm hosting a FREE WORKSHOP on Monday 2/15 where I'll walk you through 4 Steps to Develop Self Confidence and Self Trust so that you can release anxiety, overwhelm and self doubt. Imagine what that would feel like? What might be possible for you when you live from a space of internal confidence and trust?⁠
