*Originally recorded for my other podcast Triple R: Recovery Revelations Radio!* But totally relevant for anyone. Very important message.
Since it was recorded for my ED-recovery-focused podcast, I talk a lot about finding joy in ED recovery. But not HOW to find the joy - rather that it is OKAY to find the joy.
That finding and feeling joy when others haven't and don't doesn't mean you are doing something wrong.
Or that you are being disrespectful.
Or that you are invalidating them.
We do NOT have to listen to widespread narratives about how ANYTHING (process, experience, etc.) "has" to be. Nope.
We get to choose a new way. Seek a new way. SHOW a new way.
What if we got to be examples? Not in a hierarchical way. Not in a "look at me and copy me" sort of way.
Simply in a way of showing what's possible...
But we can't do that if we hold ourselves back, think we're doing something wrong by finding and feeling joy, think that we're invalidating the experiences of others, think that what others say must be what's true...
No. We get to drop all of that and explore new ways. Remember...there are infinite...
(I also talk about how I have found so much joy in my recent AuDHD discovery - even while, yes, others find it challenging. And I experiences challenges, too! But there's nuance. Life ain't black and white. It ain't even gray. It's a rainbow...)
Get ready for nuance, encouragement, inspiration (I hope!🤞), and a beautiful (& loving) kick in the booty 😉 The world needs your light and joy! No more holding back 🙏🏻 No matter where you are.
