I am the expert in making excuses for myself to not show up.

To not rely on me.

I love to find any excuse to not do the hard things I know I need to do in order to just live within my comfort zone.

So many times people talk about being your true/authentic self. This is one of the hardest things to allow ourselves to do.

Why?

Because we fear 😨 other people will not accept our true selves. This is really just a mirror reflecting our own thoughts.

Like the biggest fear we have is whether or not we will like/accept 💜 ourselves.

I asked myself--Who do I truly want to be and why do I feel like I am fighting who I want to be?

I didn't know who she was. Well, I don't want to say I didn’t know who she is.

We have this ideal 💡 version of who we would like to be; based on the morals, life lessons, character, beliefs, habits, and values, etc. that we all have.

And the hardest thing for me is--

How do I start to become this person?

In this week's episode, I dive into reflecting on how making excuses allows us to live in fear of our ideal version of our self.

If you need a jumping spot on how to reflect on this, be sure to check out the blog. I made sure to keep the questions in BOLD so you could reference them to journal with.

I would LOVE to hear some excuses you're ready to kick to the curb! Be sure to DM me @essentiallyanempath on IG
