When Life Doesn't Feel Like Yours Anymore
from The Journey of an Awakening Spirit - Conversations That Heal The Silence Within · host Kathleen M. Flanagan
Send us Fan MailHave you ever built a life that looks right from the outside but somehow doesn’t feel like yours? In this episode, Kathleen explores how high-achieving women can slowly create a “borrowed life” by making one responsible, safe, or expected decision after another without stopping to ask what they truly want. Competence can help you build a successful life, but competence isn’t the same as conscious choice. Through her own deeply personal experiences, Kathleen shares how fear, shame, expectations, and the labels we carry can influence our choices and keep us from fully stepping into who we are. She explores what can happen when we stop living according to “should” and begin making decisions from a place of self-trust and truth. Kathleen also introduces The Should Audit, a simple exercise that asks you to examine five decisions currently shaping your life and identify whether each comes from WANT or SHOULD. You don’t have to change everything today. The first step is simply seeing clearly where your life reflects what you genuinely want and where you may still be living according to someone else’s expectations.
