Uhm… My Brain Hurts
The picture below shows my first hilarious attempt at signing something electronically.😂🤣😂🤣
I’m learning all kinds of new things.
It feels wonkey and uncomfortable and my brain is panicking.
I’ve literally been trying to make impossible things possible.
It’s exhausting
…AND it’s also a little intriguing.
Whenever you are doing something new, your brain will throw a mini (or huge) unconscious shit-fit about it.
I’ve been watching my brain do that over and over… so many other emotions too.
I’m grateful AND I’m annoyed.
I’m blessed AND I’m frustrated.
I’m determined AND I’m overwhelmed.
It’s totally normal to feel awkward AND it’s OK to have all the emotions at once.
It’s normal to do things badly. In fact I highly recommend allowing yourself to do things badly in the beginning.
I mean, the guy who invented Post-it notes was actually trying to create a very strong glue and he initially failed.
Failing is literally the process.
Let that be enough and show up anyway
DO NOT drain your immune system by incessantly pushing and “making it work.”
DO NOT overwork at the expense of your well-being.
DO NOT feed into the burnout culture of our field.
NOW is the best time to set healthy boundaries.
CREATE certainty by DECIDING how you want to show up.
BE that person, work hard and then, REST on purpose.
LET that be enough because it is
YOU ARE ENOUGH
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

P.S. I promise. You ARE enough. Schedule a consultation if that’s hard for you to believe sometimes. A client told me, “…I feel like you’ve given me my mojo back and reminded me of who I am and what I am capable of personally and professionally. I feel so much better already…”
