In this episode, we open up about the struggles we are both currently navigating and how vital self-compassion becomes during challenging days. We need to give ourselves grace because it's not always easy to find outside of ourselves. We are living in such a comparative world, and having access to everyone's curated lives can take us down if we aren't
paying attention.
We all face struggles, some hit harder than others, and sometimes we feel more equipped to handle those struggles. Other times we are exhausted and feel like we are stuck in the weeds with no tools at all to navigate our way out. We've learned that being gentle with these tender soul moments is the only outreach we need to provide ourselves. To tap into the idea that we are perfect just as we are often gives enough breathing room to figure out the next step towards healing. We are often in dialogue with younger wounded versions of who we are. It can feel confusing to move forward when the 8-year-old version of our psyche is having a tantrum. Stepping back and becoming the observer often allows us time to gather our thoughts and find just the right tools to navigate our way into joy.
We have both been dealing with growing pains and healing aspects of old wounds that have lived In the shadows for too long. Addressing our truth, speaking it out loud, and sharing with others who have earned the right to hear our story will go a long way in our ability and confidence to rise over and over again. In this episode, we share some of the issues we have been dealing with, share exciting news with our family, and work on making our work more expansive.
