Go your own way: Choice, expectation and the journey to ourselves

TRIGGER WARNING: Within this episode is a brief mention of abortion, which is spoken about for approximately two minutes at around the 36 minute mark.

The world we live in likes to set us very clear expectations. Wherever we are and whatever roles we do or don't take on, you can guarantee we'll be given - subtly or otherwise - a checklist of what it means to "succeed". Yet the path to fulfillment is never and should never be the same for everyone.

So how to we break free of those expectations in order to truly understand what that path looks like for us? And then how do we go about making the changes that will put us onto those paths for ourselves.

In today's episode Ceryn goes on to speak about choice, and invites us all to dispel the myths that a choice must be "perfect", not only for now but for always; and that we must be happy and comfortable with the choices we make.

Bringing it all together we consider the journey back to ourselves and our truth; from the Fool or Novice setting out on their journey back to that place of unification with all of the wisdom that is available within us.
