HOW TO BELIEVE THAT WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU DO MATTERS

PODCAST #281

In this week's episode of #TheConfidencePodcast we're chatting about:

* Silencing self-doubt and the fear that you're "not enough" or that you're not doing enough

* How to unravel the spiral of emotions that got you to a place of self-doubt or "not enough" in the first place

* One simple, very easy way to find freedom and fuel up your confidence 

SPONSORSHIP NOTE:

In light of the impact that making a dive into entrepreneurship can make, this month I am hosting a special mentorship offer for anyone who decides to turn their passion into profit by joining arms with me and Beautycounter.  If you are passionate about the environment, about beauty, about health and about demanding for better regulation about product safety laws, then Beautycounter has been waiting for your voice. I'll personally help you leverage your passion and help you make an impact, and an income at the same time. Plus, this month, when you join forces in partnership with me, I'll be investing in a special way in you - it's so exclusive that I can't even mention it on air, because I think too many people would jump in.

WHY DO WE NOT BELIEVE WE HAVE VALUE IN THE FIRST PLACE?

I think we lose sight of our value for multiple reasons:

* comparison

* overwhelm

* purposelessness / underwhelm

HOW IS IT THAT WE CAN SO EASILY FORGET WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE?

We get distracted.

We forget to prioritize what matters.

We lose ourselves in comparison.

How do I fight these things?

I work at it.

I work at simplification.

I work at slowing down.

I work at filling the buckets that matter to me every day.

* God / my soul

* Brandon / my Marriage

* Ellie and Baker / my children

* Me / my Health (physical, emotional, intellectual, social)

* Others / my business, my neighbors, etc.

Said another way I ask myself

-Did I fill my soul today?

-Did I fail today?

-Did I grow today?

-Did I learn today?

-Did I show up today?

-Did I laugh today?

-Did I love today?

Said yet another way -

Did I learn, did I love?

Said yet another way -

Did I read a book?

Did I spend time with God / worship / give thanks?

Did I write?

Did I laugh and love with my children?

Did I spend quality time with my husband?

Did I engage my creativity and heart in my business?

Did I help others or encourage anyone?

Boiled down, for me it's really: loving and learning.

I wasted years doing what didn't matter; I want to live differently. I want to live in such a way that is a terrific adventure. A life that makes a difference. A freed soul.

Here's what I know: love is all that matters.

Live and lead with love - in your personal life, in your business, in your fitness / health pursuits, in your relationships, etc ... in everything, and you will never feel unfulfilled. Love never runs out, it multiples.

TO BELIEVE THAT YOU REALLY MATTER, I SUGGEST THAT YOU GO BACK TO WHAT REALLY MATTERS: LOVE.

You were created in love, by a being who is love, and for love.

Our hearts are filled when we spread love; when we walk in our calling / when we show up as our best selves and we shine light into the places and lives in this world that need hope and encouragement.

So, you don't matter because of what you do, who you were born to,
