Own It

What if some of the woman you’ve been working so hard to become is already here? This week on The Well Done Life, we’re closing out the conversation that began with Courageous Decisions and continued with Stand On It: Courage Has Consequences. We’ve talked about making the decision. We’ve talked about standing on it when other people don’t understand it. Now it’s time to own it. Doing this series gave me an opportunity to reflect on the decisions I’ve made for myself, my family and my life—and to recognize something powerful: I’m worth it. And I’m worth trusting. In this episode, we’re talking about what happens when you stop treating yourself like a perpetual renovation project and recognize that some of the work you’ve been doing is actually working. We’re talking about healing without making healing our identity. Therapy as a tool rather than a place we constantly go searching for what’s wrong. Recognizing the fruit of our consistency. Trusting the skills we’ve developed. Allowing ourselves to experience peace without waiting for the other shoe to drop. And most importantly, we’re talking about giving ourselves permission to LIVE. Owning yourself doesn’t mean you’ve arrived. You can still grow, learn, apologize, change your mind, ask for help and discover new things about yourself. The difference is that instead of constantly asking, “What’s wrong with me?” you begin from a place of “I trust myself to handle what comes next.” Maybe becoming isn’t always about turning into somebody new. Maybe sometimes becoming is finally giving yourself permission to be who you’ve been all along. You made the courageous decision. You stood on it. Now own it. Walk in it. Rest in it. Enjoy the fruit—and keep tending what God has trusted you to grow.
