If you're not paying attention, negative self talk can hop into the driver's seat in a split second. We all have that inner dialogue, the voice that is constantly questioning your desires, telling you all the reasons you suck or aren't good enough or surely can't compare to Susie Q over there. ⁠
⁠
Here's your Friday reminder that your negative self talk is lying to you. ⁠
⁠
So what can you do about it? Have a conversation with your inner mean girl, the inner critic, whatever you want to call it! This gets to be a two way street. Truly start questioning that negative self talk when it feels like it's taking over your life and driving what you feel you can or can't do, who you can or can't be. ⁠
⁠
Most of the time negative self talk is trying to protect you (though many times it's unhelpful in our day and age). You can lovingly turn the volume down when it shows up in an unhelpful way. ⁠
⁠
It's a praaaactice my friend! Keep this mantra on repeat this weekend if ya need it!

Oooof. This one can be so hard, can't it? Most of

Oooof. This one can be so hard, can't it? Most of us really want to grow as humans. You want to be your best self, reach your full potential, live that best life!! ⁠
⁠
Which is wonderful. I'm all for it AND...⁠
⁠
As you're changing, learning and growing, you will need to look at some hard things, like your relationships. ⁠
⁠
The reality: Relationships, of all kinds, will change over time. ⁠Some will grow with you. Some will exist for a season. Some may drift apart naturally. Some will come to an intentional end. ⁠
⁠
You may find yourself feeling conflicted and thinking things like...⁠
"I feel like shit after I'm around this person but I know they mean well." ⁠
"How can I set boundaries with someone I care about?"⁠
"If I tell this person how I'm really feeling or needing, won't they think I'm selfish?" ⁠
"I know I need space from them but I feel bad."⁠
"I'm realizing that we don't align anymore. Now what?"⁠
"I have to keep doing it this way, even though I hate it because we've always done it this way and they'll probably hate me if I change." ⁠
⁠
Change in relationships is NORMAL. As we grow, as we change, as you become more yourself, it is OKAY if people around you don't align anymore, if you find yourself needing different types of connections or community. Just as you are allowed to shift, so are the relationships with those around you. What does honoring the YOU that exists here and now in your relationships look like?⁠

With all the new year conversation floating about,

With all the new year conversation floating about, I wanted to remind you that you almost always have the chance to choose again. ⁠
⁠
There's no need for the first of the year, a Monday or a new month to do what most aligns for you. ⁠
⁠
How are you responding to the everyday setbacks?⁠
How can you let go of what happened yesterday so you can be most present and engaged today?⁠
How are you nurturing yourself when difficult emotions come up?⁠
How do you talk to yourself when life feels really hard?⁠
How are you showing yourself kindness and compassion as you pursue the things you want in your life?⁠
How do you make space for what is rather than fighting against it and tearing yourself down? ⁠
⁠
These are the questions that come up for me. These are the moments you get to choose what you do, how you respond. ⁠
⁠
Never forget ~ you almost always have the chance to choose again, in each moment. ~⁠
⁠
It never goes away! Start now. :) Lots of love friends!!

If you're feeling stuck, frustrated, simultaneously overwhelmed and underwhelmed in your life, you're not alone. I see you. I hear you. ⁠
⁠
I know what it's like to feel like something is off. There are so many things that aren't working, that don't feel right and that you wish you could do differently. ⁠
⁠
I have good news. Becoming AWARE of what's coming up for you is such a HUGE, valuable part of your journey to seeing the shifts you're wanting in your life. Follow and encourage the awareness. We can compound our pain, our stuckness, our challenges when we're not aware of it, when we're pushing it away or ignoring it. ⁠
⁠
So this is an invitation to step in. To open your awareness so that you can CHOOSE what to do with it - the anxiety, the fear, the overwhelm, the frustration, the self doubt. It's all valuable information. Once you see it and acknowledge THEN you get to decide how to navigate it, what to do with it. ⁠
⁠
Truly, truly, awareness is a POWERFUL part of the process. ⁠
⁠
If you're ready to be guided and supported on your journey, not only through the awareness, but then the tangible HOW and action steps that follow, Foundations of You Method is starting in just a few weeks. There are just a small number of places available. Step in. Step up for your life. DM me if you're ready to learn more and really change your emotional well-being!
