Conversations with Harriet

Becoming your own role model


Listen Later

Welcome to the second episode of conversations with Harriet. In this episode we unpack a pretty big and unique concept: the idea of becoming our own role - yes, you read that right! Being our own role model.

We live in a world where "change yourself" is one of the most prevalent messages. Whether the message is to change your body, change your job or change your mind - the list goes on, and the message is everywhere. Unpacking and exploring the idea that we actually do not need to change ourselves or be someone else for me was incredibly refreshing and freeing. I hope you feel the same.

The quote by Adriene Mishler (Yoga By Adriene) referenced in the episode:
“..we are not actually ever working towards the goal of becoming someone or something that we are not already. We are already that thing. That which we desire, we already possess. We are not trying to step out and change, conform, or embody someone else’s idea or concept of who we should be.”

I would love to hear your thoughts on this quote, and the concept of being your own role model. You can message me on instagram or email me at [email protected]. This episode will be available on YouTube as well  so you can leave your comments there too.
