#111 The Moment You Usually Leave Yourself

from The Art of Badassery · host Mahara Wayman

Self-trust isn’t only about making good decisions. It’s about what happens when discomfort, uncertainty, or someone else’s disappointment makes you want to abandon the decision, explain yourself, appease, control, or make the feeling go away. Self-abandonment rarely happens in one dramatic moment. More often, it happens in the seconds after you feel exposed, misunderstood, uncertain, or uncomfortable, when an old protective strategy takes over before you’ve even realized what’s happening. In this episode of Mindfucks With Mahara, we explore the tiny space between discomfort and reaction, and the capacity it takes to stay with yourself there. Because relief and alignment aren’t always the same thing. What if self-trust isn’t knowing you made the right choice? What if it’s knowing you won’t leave yourself while you find out?
