Speaker 1: Hi everyone, and welcome back to the podcast episode. My
Speaker 1: name is Alicia Gogan, the host of the Globe Secrets podcast,
Speaker 1: where I help you expand your mind and become more
Speaker 1: self aware so that you can glow up into the
Speaker 1: best version of yourself. Hello, and happy June first. If
Speaker 1: you're listening to this on a Sunday, I cannot believe
Speaker 1: it is June first. Hello, what's happening. I don't know
Speaker 1: where the time is going. My dad's birthday was actually
Speaker 1: June first, which is the tattoo that I have on
Speaker 1: my shoulder if you're watching on YouTube. If you ever
Speaker 1: wanted to know what those Roman numerals were, it was
Speaker 1: June first for his birthday. But anyways, Happy June. Like,
Speaker 1: we're here, summer, it's coming, Summer's basically here. Today is
Speaker 1: actually kind of like a gloomy day. So I'm just
Speaker 1: like in a little comfy, you know, casual sweater here
Speaker 1: and we're just vibing. We're chilling, and I want to
Speaker 1: discuss something, Okay, I want to talk about something because
Speaker 1: I feel like I've been experiencing this. And then I
Speaker 1: asked you guys in the community tab, and you guys
Speaker 1: seem to be wanting an episode on this. So the
Speaker 1: other day I was watching one of my favorite influencers
Speaker 1: and she's what somebody some people would call like basic,
Speaker 1: that girl wellness influencer. You know, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: people who will be like ah, like they don't provide
Speaker 1: much value and they're really privileged and this that, and
Speaker 1: I get all those arguments, you know, I get it,
Speaker 1: But sometimes you just have that person that you just
Speaker 1: are influenced by and you just love their lifestyle, like
Speaker 1: you love to watch their vlogs, you love to see
Speaker 1: their beautiful life, like whatever. And I'm in an era
Speaker 1: of my life right now where I'm just really allowing
Speaker 1: myself to live the life that i want, letting go
Speaker 1: of things that are not in alignment, and you know,
Speaker 1: not being so strict on myself when it comes to routines.
Speaker 1: Not like I'm not taking care of myself. I'm actually
Speaker 1: in the best place mentally, physically everything and with habits.
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm not sabotaging, I'm not resisting things.
Speaker 1: And it's all because I am not forcing, I am
Speaker 1: not pushing myself. I'm not having so much discipline on myself.
Speaker 1: So anyways, I'm just like in that era right now,
Speaker 1: and part of that era is just letting myself do
Speaker 1: what i want in the mornings. And I've had a
Speaker 1: really good routine when it comes to my morning routines.
Speaker 1: I'm doing a little bit of fasting in sync with
Speaker 1: my cycle, which I'm probably gonna talk about on my
Speaker 1: YouTube channel, and so sometimes in the morning I'm having
Speaker 1: my coffee whatever. I'm just like vibing in the mornings.
Speaker 1: And if I'm when I'm in a really good mood
Speaker 1: or in really good alignment and I'm just happy with
Speaker 1: my life, I find myself leaning towards those people or
Speaker 1: watching those people, like you know, an influencer who's like
Speaker 1: taking care of her wellness and she cares about her
Speaker 1: beauty and her fashion, or I'm on Pinterest more and
Speaker 1: I'm like caring about these things that maybe I wasn't
Speaker 1: worried about so much when I was in survival mode
Speaker 1: or a different season in my life, and when I
Speaker 1: was getting excited to like watch her vlog and just
Speaker 1: like sit and have my coffee, there's a part of
Speaker 1: me that was like feeling guilty about that and just
Speaker 1: being like, why are you doing this? And it was
Speaker 1: less about oh, you're wasting time, but more about like
Speaker 1: this is not what you should be doing, Like you
Speaker 1: should be like I don't know, like working on yourself
Speaker 1: or doing something harder, or you know, this identity of
Speaker 1: like things need to be hard. And when I was
Speaker 1: exploring where that was coming from, I just got to
Speaker 1: this point where it's like, no, Like I'm gonna allow
Speaker 1: myself to want more for myself and to be happy
Speaker 1: and to really let my old identities go and shed
Speaker 1: old versions of me and allow myself to outgrow different
Speaker 1: versions or habits or things that I no longer are
Speaker 1: interested in, and allow myself to want more and to
Speaker 1: be interested in new things. And I think there's many
Speaker 1: other areas of my life right now where I feel
Speaker 1: like I am outgrowing people, places, and things, and I
Speaker 1: am needing to step more into that unapologetic era of
Speaker 1: being like you can have whatever it is that you
Speaker 1: want in your life, Like we don't need to always
Speaker 1: be in this constant cycle and identity of somebody who
Speaker 1: has to heal or healing or fixing. And I think
Speaker 1: a lot of you guys might be going through this too,
Speaker 1: because I think a lot of you are on this
Speaker 1: journey with me, and we've done so much healing, and
Speaker 1: there's always going to be things that we need to
Speaker 1: do when it comes to healing, and old wounds will
Speaker 1: come up, and maybe we get anxious here and there,
Speaker 1: or you know, we get into these controlling mindsets again
Speaker 1: and whatever. But I feel like for the most part,
Speaker 1: we're kind of exiting, at least right now in my
Speaker 1: life this phase. I'm really really exiting this identity of
Speaker 1: having to heal, and I'm more moving into this identity
Speaker 1: of evolution and expansion and really just thinking about how
Speaker 1: do I want to live my life outside of the
Speaker 1: things that we're maybe holding me back or the things
Speaker 1: that I was healing from. And sometimes I think that
Speaker 1: we can stay stuck in that identity of needing to
Speaker 1: heal or being broken or being depressed or being sad
Speaker 1: because we've been in it for so long. But when
Speaker 1: we are going through this phase, sometimes it feels a
Speaker 1: little bit scary, and we might even tell ourselves that
Speaker 1: we're not allowed to or we feel guilty if we
Speaker 1: are wanting things, whether it is more you know, money,
Speaker 1: abundant success, material things, or we're caring more about our
Speaker 1: beauty or getting our nails done. Again, or you know,
Speaker 1: like having a social life all these things because maybe
Speaker 1: we haven't in the past. But it's really because this
Speaker 1: new version of us is in contradiction to the old identity,
Speaker 1: the old version of us that is in that identity
Speaker 1: of needing to heal and feeling like everything needs to
Speaker 1: be hard, et cetera. And so what I have been
Speaker 1: basically just telling myself when I'm witnessing myself kind of
Speaker 1: feel guilty for like wanting the things that I want,
Speaker 1: is that, for one, it's just in contradiction with this
Speaker 1: version of me that I've been for so long. So
Speaker 1: it kind of makes sense why it just doesn't feel comfortable,
Speaker 1: like anything new is going to feel uncomfortable. But it's
Speaker 1: really just remembering that we are allowed to have more,
Speaker 1: And isn't the whole point of why we've been doing
Speaker 1: healing work is so that we can have more and
Speaker 1: expand and involve in the first place. And I think
Speaker 1: it's really just about reminding yourself in the moments that
Speaker 1: you find like, oh, you're feeling guilty about wanting more,
Speaker 1: or you're staying small, or you feel bad about you know,
Speaker 1: stepping into this new version of yourself, and maybe you're
Speaker 1: judging yourself and being like, oh, I shouldn't want this
Speaker 1: or this, that it's all really just that voice that
Speaker 1: is coming from that place that wants to keep you
Speaker 1: there and believes that you need to stay in this
Speaker 1: depressed state or that life needs to be hard, and
Speaker 1: it really does not. And I shared a Pinterest quote
Speaker 1: in the community tab and this is where like I
Speaker 1: got some of your responses and stuff, and the quote says,
Speaker 1: you're allowed to get up one day and just decide
Speaker 1: to change who you are. Dress definitely, speak up more,
Speaker 1: laugh out loud, even though you've never liked your laugh
Speaker 1: say what you want to say hey to people you
Speaker 1: wouldn't normally get that confidence going. We don't have to
Speaker 1: stay the way people see us out of fear that
Speaker 1: they won't like us the way that we want to be.
Speaker 1: And I think we forget that when it is time
Speaker 1: to shed old versions of you and identities and habits
Speaker 1: or interests or anything. It might be hard, and it
Speaker 1: feels hard sometimes because we are aware of maybe what
Speaker 1: other people will think of us, but also we might
Speaker 1: just be internally judging ourselves and seeing how we are different,
Speaker 1: and it is going to feel a little bit weird,
Speaker 1: and so what I think we really need to remind
Speaker 1: ourselves is that in this phase, it's so important that
Speaker 1: we lean more on the joy of discovering our new
Speaker 1: interests or our new life, or expanding into a new
Speaker 1: version of us, instead of focusing solely on the fear
Speaker 1: that will come out of even people recognizing that we
Speaker 1: are changing, or just this blind trust that sometimes you
Speaker 1: might need to have within yourself and your dream life
Speaker 1: that you can have more and that you will have
Speaker 1: more in your life. And within that community tab post,
Speaker 1: there was a lot of feedback and some of you
Speaker 1: guys were saying, like, Yeah, I totally relate, like I
Speaker 1: am stepping out of survival mode, I am wanting more
Speaker 1: for my life, but I'm also feeling like I'm behind
Speaker 1: because I haven't been taking care of myself or I
Speaker 1: wasn't focusing on these things. Also, there was a few
Speaker 1: of you who were expressing this loneliness that is now
Speaker 1: a part of your reality because you do want to
Speaker 1: shift identities and you want to evolve and you want
Speaker 1: more for your life, or just the idea that there
Speaker 1: are people who will not benefit from you changing, and
Speaker 1: you struggle with people pleasing and actually allowing yourself and
Speaker 1: giving yourself permission to go towards the life of your dreams.
Speaker 1: And this is the thing. Growth will always, unfortunately have
Speaker 1: this small or sometimes big feeling experience of loneliness at times,
Speaker 1: because you are going to be jumping timelines in a way,
Speaker 1: you know, jumping identity, switching identities however you want to
Speaker 1: look at it. And there are gonna be a lot
Speaker 1: of people who no longer resonate, no longer want to
Speaker 1: do the things that you want to do, or maybe
Speaker 1: there's nobody in your current life that is representing some
Speaker 1: of the joy that you're feeling when I like, let's say,
Speaker 1: for when I'm like watching this vlogger who just excites
Speaker 1: me for whatever reason, Like maybe I don't have certain
Speaker 1: friends that are doing the same thing, But that doesn't
Speaker 1: mean I shouldn't want that and I shouldn't go towards that.
Speaker 1: And something I like to tell myself is that I
Speaker 1: am allowed to outgrow people or identities or shared experiences
Speaker 1: with those around me who are used to experiencing life
Speaker 1: in its smallness and who are used to experiencing life
Speaker 1: in hardship and struggle. But that might mean I might
Speaker 1: have to distance, I might have to outgrow, I might
Speaker 1: have to create space, But that's okay. And I'm not
Speaker 1: a bad person because I want more for my life.
Speaker 1: And you guys aren't bad people because you want more
Speaker 1: for your life. And honestly, you just have to think
Speaker 1: about the truth of who you are and why you
Speaker 1: came to be here, and if you believe in God
Speaker 1: or the universe, I think this is easier for you
Speaker 1: to see when you believe in something outside of yourself.
Speaker 1: Is like, we're here to expand and evolve. You're not
Speaker 1: here to constantly suffer and just be small in life.
Speaker 1: So although it might hurt, although it might be uncomfortable,
Speaker 1: to let go of people, places in things, and outgrow identities,
Speaker 1: it's what is required in your life. You have to
Speaker 1: let go of the small mindedness of you know, some
Speaker 1: of the people that you might be around, or just
Speaker 1: the identity that you just specifically might be living in.
Speaker 1: When it comes to just being depressed or sad or healing, like,
Speaker 1: you have to let go of these things. You have
Speaker 1: to allow yourself to evolve. It's not just about healing,
Speaker 1: but with that there might be a season of your
Speaker 1: life where things feel a little bit uncomfortable, a little lonely,
Speaker 1: or you might even be misunderstood, but that is not
Speaker 1: a reason for you to stay in this identity. Now,
Speaker 1: I have a few journal prompts to give you, guys.
Speaker 1: I haven't given you guys a few in a while,
Speaker 1: and they will be in the description if you're listening
Speaker 1: to the podcast on audio. But this can just be
Speaker 1: helpful for you to really maybe do like a session,
Speaker 1: like a journal session, to think about the person you
Speaker 1: want to be, letting go of the old versions that
Speaker 1: don't serve you, and really kind of just setting that
Speaker 1: energetic intention for this season you know now that it's
Speaker 1: June as well, instead of just going back and forth
Speaker 1: of feeling guilty or just staying in guilt or staying
Speaker 1: in this people pleasing tendency, or feeling bad for wanting
Speaker 1: to evolve and things like that. So the first one
Speaker 1: is what version of myself am I currently outgrowing? And
Speaker 1: for me, it's definitely this version of myself who is
Speaker 1: constantly feeling like she has to micromanage and control and
Speaker 1: pre plan every outcome and the girl who doesn't know
Speaker 1: how to go with the flow. And I have really
Speaker 1: been working on that in the past few months, and
Speaker 1: I am a completely new person when it comes to
Speaker 1: that identity, Like I honestly don't even really identify with
Speaker 1: that too much anymore. Another version of myself that I
Speaker 1: am wanting to outgrow is the person that feels guilty
Speaker 1: for wanting the things that she wants, regardless of what
Speaker 1: it is. Like, we don't need to find ways to
Speaker 1: constantly justify why we want the things that we want
Speaker 1: if it's like not something that takes a lot of
Speaker 1: hard work, or you know, just the joys in life.
Speaker 1: You know, you want a happy, healthy relationship, or you
Speaker 1: want to go out for a girl's night, or you
Speaker 1: want to care more about your appearance, or you want
Speaker 1: a little bit more money so that you can buy
Speaker 1: cute outfits, or you know, you actually just want your
Speaker 1: social media pages to be filled with things that inspire
Speaker 1: you instead of people complaining about the world and problems
Speaker 1: and things that we need to fix and things we
Speaker 1: need to heal, Like it's okay to want a peaceful life,
Speaker 1: Like it's actually okay. So I'm really really just outgrowing that.
Speaker 1: And I just think when it comes to all of
Speaker 1: us who you know, you guys who listen to this
Speaker 1: podcast and me myself, like we've done so much healing.
Speaker 1: We've done the hardship, we've done the depressive episodes, we've
Speaker 1: done the self sabotaging. And this is not to mean
Speaker 1: that we'll never again like go back into healing phases
Speaker 1: and things won't come up, but like it's okay to
Speaker 1: like take a break from things and to want a peaceful,
Speaker 1: enjoyable life and to laugh and to have fun. And
Speaker 1: I always think like my experience as a child was
Speaker 1: very like looking at everyone else and understanding that it's
Speaker 1: okay for them to have what they have, whether it's
Speaker 1: abundance or you know, money or great experiences and this that.
Speaker 1: But like for me, I'm not allowed or I can't
Speaker 1: have that. And that's just really from the experiences that
Speaker 1: I've had or the things that were given or not
Speaker 1: given to me from my upbringing in childhood. And I
Speaker 1: just try and remind myself when I see other people
Speaker 1: who are having clearly a great time in their lives
Speaker 1: where they're having healthy relationships, just fun time with their
Speaker 1: girlfriends or you know, you know, caring about their health
Speaker 1: and wellness and just doing all the things that are
Speaker 1: just like luxury living whatever it is, you know, And
Speaker 1: I look at them and I'm just like, yeah, like
Speaker 1: they're allowed to have that, but why am I not?
Speaker 1: I remind myself, this is just like an old childhood patterning,
Speaker 1: Like I have been taught that I need to work
Speaker 1: so incredibly hard to the point where I'm exhausted in
Speaker 1: my life and things come really hard, and I'm not
Speaker 1: allowed to have happiness or peace in my life. And
Speaker 1: that's just bullshit. And I've worked out of a lot
Speaker 1: of that, but I can definitely still see sometimes where
Speaker 1: that shows up, and for instant like when I'm watching
Speaker 1: that one influencer, like she has a pretty good, amazing life,
Speaker 1: but why can't I have that too? And I think
Speaker 1: a lot of people who are like advocates, who are
Speaker 1: really like aware and tapped in, we always have this
Speaker 1: like me too, Like we always have this reasoning as
Speaker 1: to why it gets to be easy for them enough
Speaker 1: for us, like, oh, well, you know this person like
Speaker 1: grew up with easier childhood experiences, or you know they're
Speaker 1: from this culture or that and that, and it doesn't
Speaker 1: mean that none of those things don't play a role.
Speaker 1: And that's fine, But for me personally, I do think
Speaker 1: I have created a lot more hardship than need be
Speaker 1: and that's simply just from the idea that I'm not
Speaker 1: allowed to have good things and things need to be
Speaker 1: hard in my life and it doesn't need to be that.
Speaker 1: And when I remove that mindset and I remind myself
Speaker 1: that I am just as worthy as everyone else to
Speaker 1: have a peaceful life, a happy life, a happy relationship,
Speaker 1: a healthy relationship, good things in my life, for work
Speaker 1: to be easy, for work to be aligned, all these things.
Speaker 1: When I really let go of a lot of that programming,
Speaker 1: my life has and it continues to become a reflection
Speaker 1: of those people where I look and I feel into
Speaker 1: like whatever it is that I'm feeling into when I'm
Speaker 1: watching their lives, like the peace and the serenity and
Speaker 1: the abundance that I actually deeply want. And that first
Speaker 1: does come from me believing and telling myself that it
Speaker 1: is possible and I'm allowed to have that life. And
Speaker 1: the last journal prompt is who am I ready to
Speaker 1: step into fully and unapologetically. I think this is really
Speaker 1: good to have somebody maybe you look up to, because
Speaker 1: you can kind of have a reference. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: to ever try and be somebody you are not, because
Speaker 1: obviously you can never actually be that person you look
Speaker 1: up to because they are them and you are you.
Speaker 1: But of course you might pick up qualities or traits
Speaker 1: or the way that they move through life from what
Speaker 1: you can see. You know, obviously, don't believe absolutely everything
Speaker 1: online or whatever. If you're looking at somebody who you
Speaker 1: don't maybe know, but it could also be somebody in
Speaker 1: real life, you know, like who's that person that might
Speaker 1: have really positive energy or really good mindset on things,
Speaker 1: or maybe they don't stress as much, or they are
Speaker 1: really successful at the job that they do, or the
Speaker 1: habits that they live by. It is okay to want
Speaker 1: something different for yourself and for you to change and evolve.
Speaker 1: And I want to say this a good sign to
Speaker 1: know that life, God, the universe, whatever is calling for
Speaker 1: you to change. Is you have that energetic pull or
Speaker 1: you have that desire, or you have that joy in
Speaker 1: something and you can't stop thinking about it, or you
Speaker 1: keep going back to it, or you just feel so
Speaker 1: good when you're doing that thing. And it could be
Speaker 1: as simple as what I was saying. You know, in
Speaker 1: my mornings, I'm just like craving, just like watching a
Speaker 1: certain type of logger or a certain type of topic,
Speaker 1: or I'm interested in this one thing, or every time
Speaker 1: that I'm not super controlling on myself, I feel like
Speaker 1: there's so much ease and flow in my life, and
Speaker 1: I end up being more motivated to do the things
Speaker 1: that I know are good for myself versus doing all
Speaker 1: these things that don't feel good. Like anything that feels
Speaker 1: good energetically that you want to do more is a
Speaker 1: really good indicator that you should go in that direction.
Speaker 1: And there's a difference between that, you know, going the
Speaker 1: direction of what makes you feel good and things like
Speaker 1: self sabotaging behaviors, because you know, sometimes I think that
Speaker 1: people can be like, well, eating a bunch of junk
Speaker 1: food makes me feel good. It's like that makes you
Speaker 1: feel good for one second, and then you feel a
Speaker 1: guilt and shame and then you go into a spiral
Speaker 1: and you feel like shit about yourself afterwards, you know,
Speaker 1: or that unhealthy relationship, it gives you that like quick
Speaker 1: dopamine kick for a second and then you're like crashing down.
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about those habits. I'm talking about those
Speaker 1: small or big things that really just make you feel
Speaker 1: so good and I think it's a journey. It's a
Speaker 1: huge unlearning and it's a thing that you need to
Speaker 1: slow down with in order to even figure out what
Speaker 1: you want and what feels good to you. But that
Speaker 1: first starts with following that intuition, following that feeling, and
Speaker 1: letting yourself go in that direction. It's all about permission,
Speaker 1: really and truly, you are the one that is either
Speaker 1: going to keep yourself stuck in that little jail cell,
Speaker 1: and it's understandable why you have beliefs and you have
Speaker 1: ideas of why you think you should always say in
Speaker 1: this jail cell, or it's going to be you allowing
Speaker 1: yourself to break free. And I think the way that
Speaker 1: you allow yourself to break free and to give yourself
Speaker 1: permission is to see what you were doing and how
Speaker 1: your life is is when you're not, you know, you're
Speaker 1: probably really unhappy doing the same things that you keep
Speaker 1: telling yourself that you need to do. Or you're staying
Speaker 1: in friendships that do not serve you, or you're doing
Speaker 1: everything for everyone else and look at how that's depleting you,
Speaker 1: or you're just constantly dreading the next day because you
Speaker 1: keep telling yourself you do all these things that you
Speaker 1: don't want to do. And I know there's a lot
Speaker 1: of things that we still need to do in our
Speaker 1: lives that maybe they're not super in alignment. But there's
Speaker 1: so many other things in our lives that we can do,
Speaker 1: small little steps and ways that we can free ourselves
Speaker 1: and give ourselves more permission. And actually, if somebody had
Speaker 1: DMed me and I had posted that I was at
Speaker 1: the spa, I haven't gone to the spawn like so
Speaker 1: long to get a facial, and she said, loving that
Speaker 1: you're sharing this. I got so motivated to get my
Speaker 1: nails done when you posted that you got your nails done,
Speaker 1: and it felt like permission. Got engaged that same week,
Speaker 1: so was so grateful I went, even though I never go,
Speaker 1: which first of all, congratulations, like love that we love
Speaker 1: getting engaged over here. But this is what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like even something as small as lending yoursel, like get
Speaker 1: your nails done because you want to get them done,
Speaker 1: but you feel like guilty or you shouldn't do it
Speaker 1: or this that, And I obviously know it depends on
Speaker 1: if you have money or whatever, but just those small
Speaker 1: things that you just constantly keep telling yourself, like no,
Speaker 1: it's not worth it or shouldn't do it, or no,
Speaker 1: I should be working on this that, or everything needs
Speaker 1: to be hard, or I shouldn't worry about that because
Speaker 1: it's not important. Like sometimes those things are important because
Speaker 1: it makes you feel good about your life. So if
Speaker 1: that's what makes you feel good, then go do more
Speaker 1: of what makes you feel good. And when you do
Speaker 1: more of what makes you feel good, you open up
Speaker 1: these portals, okay, and you think about the God, the universe, whatever,
Speaker 1: these like portals of just abundance. You're just attracting good people,
Speaker 1: places and things. Why Because you're in a good mood,
Speaker 1: you're moving in the flow of life, You're getting out
Speaker 1: when you should be out, and maybe you're gonna meet
Speaker 1: that one person. You're gonna go here, there, everywhere, or
Speaker 1: you know, you have an idea that you're really excited
Speaker 1: to do when it comes to content. I'm saying that
Speaker 1: because that's just you know, that's my life when it
Speaker 1: comes to content, and you know that video hits the
Speaker 1: right people, the right audience, and it changes people's lives.
Speaker 1: And then I'm doing more of the work that I
Speaker 1: really am passionate about, versus doing things that I'm not
Speaker 1: passionate about like, there's so much good that will come
Speaker 1: out of you going in the direction of what makes
Speaker 1: you feel good. So stop trying to keep yourself small
Speaker 1: and you know, negotiating yourself out of the things that
Speaker 1: make you feel good. Okay, I know we can do it,
Speaker 1: and it's just it's not necessary, and it's not necessary
Speaker 1: because we stay stuck and we don't grow, and we
Speaker 1: don't evolve, and we are unhappy and what is the point.
Speaker 1: What's the point of life? Then? If we're constantly just
Speaker 1: going to be stuck in this constant end of things
Speaker 1: need to be hard and life needs to be depressing,
Speaker 1: and we're never gonna do anything that makes us feel
Speaker 1: lit up, and we're braiding ourselves and making ourselves feel
Speaker 1: guilty about the fact that we want to get things
Speaker 1: done like our nails or our hair. It's just not needed.
Speaker 1: And a Pitchus quote that I really liked says, so
Speaker 1: many doors will open for you when you decide it's
Speaker 1: okay to start over. And I think it's really just
Speaker 1: solidifying to God, to the universe, whatever that you know what.
Speaker 1: I'm putting up my hands and I'm letting go of
Speaker 1: this old version of me and I'm willing to start over,
Speaker 1: and I'm willing to step into a new version of me.
Speaker 1: And there's another quote that I really liked, and it
Speaker 1: says starting over is a luxury, not a burden. So
Speaker 1: do not be afraid, do not think it's the wrong
Speaker 1: decision to start over, to step into a new version
Speaker 1: of you. Any day of the week, you can just
Speaker 1: be like, you know what, I don't want to be
Speaker 1: this person who stresses all the time. I don't want
Speaker 1: to be this person who feels that life needs to
Speaker 1: be super hard. I want to take care of myself
Speaker 1: in ways that I wasn't before. I know that there's
Speaker 1: more capacity that I can have in my life to
Speaker 1: live a more fulfilling life, which means, yeah, there's going
Speaker 1: to be things that are not quote unquote the most
Speaker 1: productive or the most hard thing in life. And that's
Speaker 1: okay to have and to want in our lives. That's
Speaker 1: all I'm gonna say about the topic. I just feel
Speaker 1: like I kind of wanted to ran on that for
Speaker 1: a bit, and you know, just let you guys know
Speaker 1: that that's what I'm experiencing as well, is really just
Speaker 1: dropping this guilt and reminding myself that I'm allowed to
Speaker 1: have the life that I want. And you know it's
Speaker 1: only me, it's me versus me, really, and every time
Speaker 1: I go in the direction of joy, the things that
Speaker 1: make me feel happy and light me up, I always
Speaker 1: get the best results. Anyways, So why not just continue
Speaker 1: the best that I can week after week to allow
Speaker 1: myself to have more of a fulfilling and happy life. Also,
Speaker 1: if you're watching on YouTube, we have mister Theo. He
Speaker 1: is so big and cute and loving and I love
Speaker 1: him so much. So anyways, with that said, let me
Speaker 1: know if you resonate, let me know if you want
Speaker 1: me to expand on anything further. I think the overall
Speaker 1: message here is really just give yourself that permission. Just
Speaker 1: be unapologetic, like, just allow yourself to want more. You
Speaker 1: know other people have way more and they allow themselves
Speaker 1: to have way more, So why not let that be you? Okay,
Speaker 1: And we don't need this story as to why we
Speaker 1: can't or we shouldn't know, and just keeping yourself stuck
Speaker 1: and you don't need to be stuck anymore, you don't
Speaker 1: need to be depressed anymore. You're allowed to let yourself
Speaker 1: be happy. There's gonna be other phases of your life
Speaker 1: where you can go back into your depressive whole, or
Speaker 1: like life needs to be super hard if that's what
Speaker 1: you want, but like why you know, Like we've suffered enough,
Speaker 1: just let yourself live. Anyways, I'll see you guys in
Speaker 1: the next one. Bye.
