You’ve been reading all the books, enrolled in all the courses that YouTube university has so generously provided and have all the freebie downloads your email can contain but it just isn’t coming together like you had imagined. That’s the tricky thing with taking advice from people that aren’t qualified to handle your intimate bits. You’re tired of giving your power away and disguising it as being the nice friend, because you lose a little bit of yourself with every “it’s okay” you whisper. I want more for you.
I still remember the days that I would ask my power away, allowing others thoughts to replay in my mind like a broken record. Nothing I was doing aligned with who I was at my core because I was in the business of pleasing everyone else first. I hated it there. I would continuously tell myself, “Today is the last day!” but I would cave at the first opportunity to play superwoman.
It wasn’t until I fully committed to my personal development that I began to see little shifts become lasting behaviours. The time, energy and financial investments I was willing to make in the name of growth reflected the changes I was seeing.
I stopped believing that I needed someone to hold my hand or lead the way once I empowered myself with tools and a blueprint to build my own success kit. Gone were the days of taking back seat roles knowing I was more than qualified to deliver like the women I admired.
I realized the power was within, it just needed a bit of nurturing.
