Episode 234: Where Are You Holding Yourself Back?

Listen on Apple Podcasts | Listen on Spotify

A recent moment of serendipity led me to an invitation for a Mastermind event in Santa Monica. It was WAY outside my comfort zone. And I went anyway. But not without fear, discomfort and anxiety. 

In order to expand beyond the edges of your comfort zone, you have to first find those edges, and bump up against them. And that sh*t is uncomfortable. 

Attending this event asked me to punch holes in a LOT of belief systems about myself. To really look at the stories I was telling myself about myself and ask: are these true? Do I want to continue to operate as though these are true? What stories and beliefs need updating? Am I willing to step out of these in order to create a new story for myself? 

And I had the opportunity to do this with a LOT of beliefs, ALL AT ONCE, in a very short period of time.

Within 36 hours of being home, I grabbed the mic so I could talk you through the exact process of how I held myself through the discomfort of growth. And how WORTH IT it was. 

And also share with you the clarity, self-acceptance and magic I found on the other side.

This episode is all about expanding our capacity for what we give ourselves permission to be, do and have.
