She was screaming and crying and nothing I said was getting through to her.
“I’m stupid.”
“I can’t do it.”
“It never works when I try.”
Self-doubt and not believing in yourself gets me fired up. It’s a clear reflection that someone has lost touch with themselves and their potential. And I won’t stand for it.
“Stop this nonsense.”
I told her all the ways she demonstrated that it’s not true.
I reminded her that she shuts down when she gets overwhelmed (and her body shows her too in her own way). I showed her how she tries to distract herself from her feelings rather than deal with them head on. I marked a boundary I would not let her cross with herself and I held the space for her until she stepped into it herself.
And she eventually did.
My role as a mother and a spiritual mindset coach is to witness and reflect, to teach and to guide, and to give a loving ‘kick in the pants’ when someone needs it.
Because you are too important to not do so.Â
Yes, there will be moments when you doubt yourself.
Yes, there will be times when you feel overwhelmed and unprepared.
Yes, there will be days when you feel defeated.
But you are too important to stay in that state of mind.
Yes, you have within you the resilience to overcome obstacles.
Yes, you have within you the courage to try again and succeed.
Yes, you have within you the power to shift your outcomes.
But, you must be willing to make that shift.
Sometimes it takes someone on the outside to do that for you if you can’t seem to break through on your own. When those same thoughts keep banging around the inside of your head, you need a new strategy. Find someone who can do that for you too, OK?

This, my friend, is no time to be doing things alone.
Our world has shifted so dramatically in the last several weeks and we are disconnected more than ever from each other. Yet the things you were dealing with several weeks ago are still the same more than likely, or maybes even worse than they were…?
This is the time to get support so that you can be in the best position to navigate these unknown times, and also to thrive when the world opens again.
This is also a time of your own transformation. Use this opportunity as a gift to slow down and focus on your own growth and healing like never before.
Book a no-cost call with me here and get clarity on what it’ll take for you to get past the nonsense that’s been holding you back. I’m here for you.
