Let's Just Sweep that under the Carpet

Newsflash 😆 🔥


Humanness alert (is that a word) 😏


Now and then I find myself slipping back into my old patterns


The patterns of making sure everybody around me is happy because if I think if everybody else is happy then I’ll be happy too 🤦🏻‍♀️


Dang it’s a hard habit to break - seriouslyyyyyy


Thankfully, I’m able to recognize quickly when I am slipping down that slope of


performing And fitting


rather than belonging to who I am at the core 😍


It can happen suddenly,

one day you feel like

you’re speaking your truth

boundaries are in check ✅

you’re living your own life and then

you hear yourself say something you actually don’t believe


Or


You realize you’ve been saying Yes to something that’s draining the lifeblood outta ya


you act a certain way that is so-not-who you are

but 𝒍𝒆𝒕’𝒔 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒔𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒑 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒑𝒆𝒕


Then you wake up one day realizing your life has been

a series of yes’s & trails of times NO needed to be the go to answer


𝑩𝒖𝒕 𝑮𝒐𝒅 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒃𝒊𝒅 𝒘𝒆 𝒓𝒐𝒄𝒌 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒐𝒂𝒕


What with “they” think?


See there's one huge problem with continually trying to make everybody else happy by trying to please other people & sitting on the fence of complacency......

I’m not going to go down the road of why we become like that, that’s not what this post is about because the list is Vast & we each had our own experiences that shaped us


What I am going to say is this. ——>


Once you come to the realization that you actually can’t make everybody happy around you no matter how hard you try


You’re then able to start focusing on yourself;


doing the necessary internal work needed to see why that desire is within you in the first place - to make everybody else happy around while you push yourself to the side


We must be willing to put ourselves out there, and look in the mirror - in order to heal, help, change, learn and grow


So many times we want a different life,

we want to live in gratefulness, love, joy, peace and deep connection with others


yet we don’t do the work on ourselves in order to evolve past carrying what others think of our decisions


✨If you know for 100% it’s time to move forward in your life .... send me a message & let’s get you started ✨
