It can be good to check in, now and again: when it comes to your self-help, is it possible that profound shifts could come from simple answers, and you’re over-complicating it? In other words, are you choosing drama?

It’s long bothered me that in the self-help space, people declare that we simply can choose how we let something define ourselves, and leave it at that. Today, I’m talking about how to not let things define you--without the side of spiritual bypass.

Often, we know what we “should” do, but something holds us back--the need to have a process with what we experience. You’re allowed to have a process. You’re allowed to take a breath, hesitate, fully feel what you need to feel before you do what you “should.” Today’s podcast digs in to that.

Do you have a hunger for more? Do you make yourself wrong for that--telling yourself not to “get ahead of yourself” or to “be realistic”? Let’s look at the paradox of how we can love our lives as they already are, yet also hunger for more, and expand our desires without the guilt trip.
