what if you stopped trying to get over your insecurities?

hey, hot toddy.
“PUSHING THROUGH ANY INSECURITY”
that was the community card for the UPRISING inner sanctum this week, and it was pulled in reverse
card: from the moonology manifestation oracle card deck by yasmin boland & lori menna
we let the reverseness of the card flip its guidance, so that we explored the value of NOT pushing through any insecurity
instead of chastising yourself to push through it, fight through it, ignore it, slay it — what if you called your insecurity a little closer?
invited it to chat, forehead to forehead, mugs of cocoa in hand
what if you got to know your insecurities a little more intimately, without calling them names or making them the enemy?
just like envy can be seen as an indicator to show you what you actually want for yourself, so too can your insecurities hold wisdom for you —
showing you where you have a need, wound or want that’s ready to be filled, healed or indulged
and just like the ego can be seen as a well-meaning but misguided protector, so too may your insecurities want to keep you safe, but are just doing it in a no-longer-helpful way
if you feel up to it, i invite you to take some time to recognize an insecurity that’s getting in the way of a decision, action or result in your biz or life
and then be so bold as to dialogue with it. get to know it, consider the wisdom it has for you
and then consider how you can bridge the gap, meet the need, act on the information to make yourself whole — in ways that don’t rely on OTHER PEOPLE
because often, if not always, our insecurities are in relation to others
we’re worried about what other people think about X, Y, or Z — how they’re judging us for it, what a lack of P, 3 or Q from them means about us, based on these things we’re insecure about
and as long as we stay stuck in needing other people to heal our insecurities, we’ll never really be free from them
it’s another side of the stop outsourcing your power to others conversation, where here your power is the ability to love the stuffing outta your own damn self, exactly as you are, without having to fix, or prove, or succeed
i mean… BY ALL MEANS, succeed your ass off!!
but do it from a place of knowing you don’t need to in order to earn your own magnificence —
from fullness as opposed to lack
you can pave a pathway to that place by engaging with the insecurities that are holding you back —
and exploring what they’re actually telling you about what you want, what you need, what can be healed, and what you can do instead
because there’s no way you can go through an exercise like that + not come out better
if you’re ready to dig into the wisdom ALL your inner whispers + roars hold for you — EVEN the insecurities you’d rather leave behind…
i’m inspired to dust off an old short-term coaching package for you (at a savings to help make it so easy for you to get started!)

because if your insecurities are holding you back from being your most glorious, magnetic, abundant self…
you’ve already waited too long
and you deserve to liberate yourself from the heft of their hold
note: this isn’t what i wrote about the other day… that’s still on the way! i just couldn’t resist throwing this out on a whim when it called to me :)
ps: if you’re over there scrunching your face up, wondering how in the world you can soothe your insecurities WITHOUT making it about other people… maybe it’s time to find out 💖

hey, sunbutter cup. so, they say when you turn 50 you start to give less of a fuck just shy of T- 2 months for me, and i’m over here kinda struck by how it’s already happening while on one hand, age + timelines can be admittedly kind of arbitrary… on the other, i’m totally feeling on the full-body brink of some big transition a quiet strength has seeded within, a gentle yet undeniable unshakeability grown at my core a system-wide evolved embodiment that feels at once leaner + more full and...
