169: The Power of Embracing Your Messiness


Listen Later

As humans, we are universally messy. Our actions and reactions are often times in conflict with what we want to do and who we want to be. It can feel much easier to ignore and deny the reality of parts of our lives that don’t seem very flattering or socially acceptable, but what if there’s something powerful about embracing the truth of our messiness?

In this episode, Justin and Abi examine some of the reasons we avoid acknowledging the messy parts of our humanity. They talk about the ways we can experience a life of greater freedom and healing from getting honest with ourselves and others. They explore  how embracing and shining a light on their own messiness is transformative for the world around them.

If you have areas in your life that you feel disqualify you, this episode will give you the courage to embrace the reality of where you’re at while giving you hope to move towards your dreams just as you are!
