Old Self - New Self - True Self: A Pathway To A Brave + Beautiful Life

So many midlife women approach their healing and growth work from the root belief that they are not good enough, they are bad, wrong, or broken, or that they need to find a "fix" outside of themselves. And then they will feel kinder to themselves, more at peace, or everything in life will fall into place.All this does is reinforce your old self-protective patterns and gives you more of the same. More of what is NOT working for you.If you want to create loving, positive, healthy, sustainable change in your life, in your relationships, in your relationship with yourself, then you need to change a fundamental belief.You don't need fixing. You are already whole.You don't need to do better and be better. You need to BE your True Self and learn how to BE on your own side.In this episode I walk you through a process of growth and becoming that I call Old Self - New Self - True Self.Women arrive at my work at the New Self phase. I take them through this vulnerable, messy stage of becoming and help them meet and befriend their True Self. This is where they learn to lead from their Wise, Healthy, Brilliant Self more and more of the time.The New Self phase is hard work. It's important to know that and normalize it. You will need to shed, strip away, question, decondition... and this can feel unmooring and destabilizing at first.But - this is also where freedom and joy really begin to grow in your life.You learn to receive what you truly want and need. You learn to be on your own side and really trust yourself. You learn to pause between impulse and response. You learn how to be with discomfort and show up through it vs quitting or hiding under the covers. And you put down deep, hardy roots of self-awareness and self-compassion.If there is a part of you that recognizes a desire to say YES to more freedom and joy and self-kindness, then after listening to this episode, I invite you to listen to a free training about Rewilding in Midlife.Rewilding in Midlife: Say Yes To Becoming Your True Self.
