EP. 39 - Redefining What It Means To Be "Good"
from Grounded Wildness · host Heather Whelpley
How often do you do something because it's "good?" Do you avoid the cookie or cocktail because you're being "good?" Do you stay quiet when you're angry, hold back your feelings to protect someone else's feelings, save money, get up at 5:00am to work out, or are just generally polite and responsible all because it's "good?" And here's the real zinger -- how much of being "good" involves denying yourself?But here's the thing - I don't know about you, but don't want to be "bad" either! That simply doesn't resonate with me. Instead, it's time to redefine what it means to be good so you can be true to yourself and gain freedom from all the little constrictions that being "good" has given you. I'll share my list of qualifications for being "good" (which, oh my lord, was WAY longer than I ever anticipated) and then we'll talk through your rules for being good, what you get out of being good (there's always something you gain!), and how to redefine good on your own terms.Links:Learn more about hiring Heather as a speakerGet signed, hardcover copies of Grounded Wildness on Heather's website and the audiobook, ebook, and hardcover on AmazonJoin Heather's email list and also get The Ultimate Guide To Saying No and Setting Boundaries At Work!
