Send us a text

In this episode (#8) I share:

• How I thought I was daring greatly by jumping into my life (but wasn't really).
• How negative self-talk and negative ways of being can cripple you.
• How being vulnerable, patient, and honest with yourself can equal a life worth living.

Episode Transcript

Vernae (00:00):
Hey everybody, you are tapped into the listening ears
podcast with me, your host VeraeBezear.
When I first started thesepodcasts, it was a way of me

(00:20):
daring, greatly.
I mentioned in episode three,thank you.
Brene brown, that this was meputting myself out there being
vulnerable and being, beingdaring and just doing the things

(00:43):
that I wanted to do.
But at the same time I was beingdishonest.
And if we go back to my lastpodcast where I talked about

(01:11):
honesty and ways of being honestwith ourselves, I believe number
one, or number two was the selftalk, right?
Just being hyper aware of theway one talks to themselves.

(01:36):
So I wasn't daring greatly,really.
I mean, I'm doing the podcasts,right.
But I didn't want to listen tothem.
I didn't want to edit them andhear my voice.

(01:58):
I didn't know why it was almostas if I was ashamed or afraid to
hear myself because hearing itright, hearing it is like, it,
it makes it, it makes it real.
And just like my negative selftalk, I would say things like,

(02:26):
get it together.
The hell's wrong with you.
Let's go.
And I would critique myself in,in such a way, like, What is
wrong with you?
Why, why would you say it likethat?

(02:48):
Get yourself together?
Always.
So me not listening to thepodcasts and listening to my
voice and being in it wasanother way of being dishonest.

(03:13):
And also in essence, being selfsabotaging.
When I did listen to myself,which was about episode three
ish, I didn't have oneencouraging word.

(03:44):
I didn't have anything good tosay.
And it made me think about who Ihad been showing up as, right.
I was this task master and alsosupervisor at the same time, a

(04:10):
task master barking out ordersand degrading me and
.
And why would you do a podcast?
Why would you put your yourpersonal things out there?
Uh, no wonder you didn't wannahear yourself, but it's like,
that's what I wanted to do.

(04:33):
So it's all good.
And then my supervisor, right?
That supervisor part of mewatching over me and maybe
micromanaging me or alwaystelling me what I need to
improve on or how I should havehandled something, not being

(05:01):
true to myself, handling myselfwith grace and love and
patience.
And that's the part of daringgreatly and being in it, that

(05:22):
for me was uncomfortable.

(05:23):
Up until A few podcasts ago.
So it makes me it, I guess italso shines a light on all of
it, right?
Being vulnerable, being daring,being honest, being intentional,

(05:59):
all of it leads to a life worthliving.
And it's a process.
It's a journey.
There are ups and downs.
There are well, there haven'tbeen any breaks.

(06:26):
Thank God, no breaks, but lotsof ups and downs and twists and
turns.
But I'm here for all of itbecause I know that my life on
the other side of this is thelife that I've asked for.

(06:57):
I've dreamed of And deserve, Doyou struggle with hearing
yourself or watching yourself?
Do you think that you are daringgreatly and you are all in, but

(07:24):
maybe you're not ask yourself.
Why have that tough conversationwith yourself and listen to your
feelings?
If anything I've said in thisepisode's podcast resonated with

social media platforms, yeah.
