Truth Telling and Self-Mercy with Elizabeth Gilbert

"How many people do you know who are truly free?" Elizabeth Gilbert posed this question to me 2 years ago during our conversation to promote her book, City of Girls. The question, and the episode, have stayed with me.  I know very few truth tellers like Liz. Tied to anxiety and fear, work and stress, we put on faces to hide our true selves, people-please and value others' priorities above our own. Liz talks openly about how she is breaking this mold and focusing on taking care of her mental health before beginning to help others. As we take this time to reflect on the year, now is the time to ask yourself if you are living truthfully. Are you honest with yourself? Are you vulnerable? Do you have mercy for yourself? How do you take these aspirations into 2022 with you and learn to live truly free? Enjoy! Have a question? Text me 1-206-309-5177
