Permission to BE

from The Permission Slip · host Nicole Morris

Not permission to be perfect. Not permission to be put together. Not permission to be the version of yourself that everyone else is comfortable with.  Just — permission to be.  Excellent. Messy. Broken. Needy. All of it. Without apology.  Somewhere along the way, most of us learned that only certain versions of ourselves were acceptable. The strong version. The capable version. The one who had it handled. And we got so good at performing those versions that we forgot the rest of ourselves was still in there — waiting for permission to exist.  In Episode 5, Nicole Morris sits down with self-made entrepreneur Dr. Pamela Charity Phoenix for one of the most honest conversations The Permission Slip has held yet. Together they explore what it actually means to give yourself permission to show up fully — not just in your highlight reel moments, but in the ones nobody posts about.  This is a conversation about wholeness. About releasing the exhaust valve on the pressure to always be your best self — and trusting that your whole self is enough.  You don't need to earn the right to exist as you are.
