46. Wanna Know What's Really Scary?

from Embracing Enough · host Dina Scippa

In this special (unplanned) episode in honor of Halloween, Dina unpacks the thing that she feels is truly scary (and no, we're not talking ghost stories). We talk about being stuck in the same place or situation for longer than you would like to admit - months, a year, hell, even YEARS! And she chooses to go deep in a topic that she typically shies away from - relationships, and more specifically, moving on. As women, we may not understand why moving on is scary when we are clearly so not satisfied with where things stand in that relationship. And it's scary to think how comfortable you have gotten with the way things stand. So comfortable that you don’t even realize how tightly you are holding on because of how terrified you are of the uncertainty moving on would bring. The most frightening part of it all when trying to reconcile in letting go is the uncomfortable truth that along the way, we realize we have gotten used to a certain level of sadness and the pain. Because the pain and the sadness grew to something that you learned to tolerate, it became a part of who you were. And eventually, it became the thing that defined you.  What sparked this idea for this episode is a past trip to Atlanta for a conference called EpicCon hosted by Aprille Franks. Dina shares what embarassing moment she had and recounts what awakened in her as a result.  Find more of Dina: Instagram: @enoughlabs Share some love to the show by leaving a rating, review and of course subscribing so you can stay up to date on future episodes.
