Getting Out of Your Own Damn Way: How to Recognize What's Really Holding You Back

You can blame your partner, your parents, and your boss. You can blame your circumstances. You can come up with an exhaustive list of reasons and excuses to live small and avoid growth. And, while those reasons and excuses may be valid, here's the thing.What's standing between you and the goals and possibilities you want to realize in your life is a blocker with an underlying force that has to be understood to be overcome. This is where the messy as hell practice of mindfulness becomes a game changer.   This week, we’re talking about blockers: how to recognize when you're standing in your own damn way and how to (mindfully) break free and realize the best stuff in your life.I’m going to share a personal story with you of my reasons and excuses I used to justify avoiding something that would help me realize my passion, mission, and goals. I later recognized my fear of rejection and not being good enough were the underlying forces holding me back.I’m going to take you through the three most common blockers I've observed in the high achieving women I know, love, and coach. The ones they recognize and overcome when they are facing the scary choices that will ultimately move them forward.You’ll learn how to recognize and get clarity on the underlying force that’s causing you to get in your own damn way and what to do with it once it's front and center in your awareness. And you'll learn three of the mindfulness practices I offer the women I coach that will help you start to get out of your own damn way and take positive steps toward your goals- if it’s important for you.Loved this?
