#125: Where Do You Place Your Worthiness? - Solo Episode Dec 18, 2020

Show notes

This week I wanted to share thoughts on something that I feel very passionate about right now - worth. So often we shape-shift and adapt from our true selves in order to feel safe, loved, or even just to prevent rocking the boat. Our worth should live in who we are, not in other people's opinions or validations. Are you ready to give birth to your authentic self? ~ Discover: Why we need to pay attention to our pain Why are we afraid of being authentic? The power of courageous conversations Your worth should never depend on someone else's validation "Enoughness" and the growth of taking up space How do you get 1% more you?

In the current state of the world there is so much information coming at us, but our opinions and perspectives are not safe to share.

Right now, it is more important than ever to be having hard conversations with love, and being open to other peoples perspectives, and meeting them where they are at. Can you be open to the possibility that what you think right now isn't true? ~ Discover: Covid, censorship, taking sides and gaslighting How to dance in the middle and see both sides When you're open to the way you see the world, you're free Observing the liberties you give away Media and highjacking for fear and your attention Trusting yourself and yourself The space between reaction and response is where we have a choice Why we need to stop shaming each other for questioning Holding space for ourselves and each other in middle of information warfare
