046 - How to Be Yourself When the World Tells You Who You Should Be
Manage episode 334454271 series 2862340
After spending nearly 2 full years staying close to home, I’ve now been going back into the real world and it feels—well—strange. Like completely different than how it used to feel back in 2019/early 2020. I’ve come to realize that this is because I’m different now than I was 2+ years ago, and though I’m going back to doing things I used to do in 2019/2020 and beyond, I am coming at them with new energy, fresh eyes, and a changed heart.
My body remembers what it was like to be that person, though.
I used to really emulate the person whom the world told me I should be; a person all prim and proper, muted, trying to fit in, unconfident, scared to express her opinion for fear of being judged, and more. I wasn’t ever being my authentic self—and if I was, it was in isolation with a trusted friend or my husband.
Very few people met my true self back prior to 2020, and then in 2020 I begin embodying my true self-worth when I took the steps to become a certified self-worth coach and start wrapping my business in with my spiritually connected side. That much has always been me—spiritually connected—and I am so grateful I now have many ways to express this part of me and support others.
Today’s podcast episode talks about my journey coming back to myself and what it’s been like grappling with the old habits resurfacing now that I’ve been integrating back into the real world. I have made a promise to myself that I will ALWAYS show up as me no matter what, and I will remove myself from situations that no longer serve me or that don’t feel safe as I express this new me—this version of myself that was dormant under the surface and who now feels so good to be free.
I hope you enjoy today’s podcast episode, and the special song I included as it relates to fully embracing your self-worth and letting go of what doesn’t serve you.
Sending you so much love!
