Ep 20: I’m Calling Myself Out + Taking A Break
Do you keep repeating the same pattern over and over again knowing it’s going to hurt?
Being consciously aware that you’re engaging in (or about to engage in) something that you know going to hurt you later is the most painful type of awareness there is.
However, this pain is almost always a necessary and beautiful catalyst for transformation and change. I know, because it’s happened to me (more than a few times!).
In This Episode:
Why I’m calling myself out (I haven’t been practicing what I preach)
The effect social media has had on me lately (and why I need a break)
My lack of presence and addiction to distraction
The dark pit of the not-enough BS comparison trap
The breakthrough session that blew my mind
What I’m proud of…and what I’m not
