131 | Going Beyond the Pale

 In today’s episode, I want to talk about going ‘beyond the pale’, because this particular phrase really stuck out to me, and I believe it’s something you will resonate with as well. If you look up what this actually means (which I of course did), you’ll find that it means to act in a way that is considered outside the bounds of ‘acceptable’ behaviors or standards. It may be seen as outrageous, offensive, unacceptable, and even shocking.I know SO many of you are currently navigating a journey of doing something different. You’re going against the grain, and you may be getting pushback from those around you because yeah…it’s shocking, and they don’t want to accept it.So often, we betray ourselves in our lives; we completely self-abandon what we *really* want to do for the sake of someone else’s comfort. It feels ‘easier’ and ‘safer’ when we stay with what we’ve always known, and continue to get approval from the world around us. But...that’s never going to allow you the joy, happiness, alignment, authenticity, and true freedom that you want in your life, is it?  I invite you to consider what going ‘beyond the pale’ looks like for you. What are you going to choose? What is *really* inviting you to step further outside of where you are now?In this episode, I cover:The history behind going ‘beyond the pale’What stepping outside of ‘the pale’ can look and feel likeWhy we betray ourselves in multiple areas of our livesThe little ‘gems’ and ‘nuggets’ we find and collect for ourselves when we actually go ‘beyond the pale’Be sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Emily:Follow on Instagram and FacebookJoin my email listCheck out my websiteConnect with me on LinkedInResources and Links:Gather in Growth Sponsorship InquiryBook me as a speaker for your next eventGather in Growth podcast produced by: Jill Carr Podcasting
