Don't Shrink to Fit: Empowering and inspiring women one story at a time.

Life appears to me very short  to be spent in nursing animosity, relieving bad experiences or registering wrong. Sometimes you just have to accept an apology we never got.

In this episode a share part of a chapter from my book Brighter Days and part of the sermon Rabbi Goodman did on Kol Nidre last Sunday. I am not jewish but I so much enjoy listening to him when I go to temple with my husband. 

"We live our life trying to emulate the divine, trying to attain holiness. This is the most important question: if God can forgive, why can’t we?  Forgiveness doesn’t mean condoning or  forgetting the wrongdoing. It doesn’t require erasing the memory of a hurtful event, or pretending never happened. Rather, it acknowledge the pain and recognizes that people make mistakes, leaving room for growth and reconciliation"

I hope you enjoy this episode, and I hope you can learn something more about forgiveness and about yourself.

when we get hurt and allow those feeling to control us, we give our power away. If the hurt was intentional, we hold on to it longer. We feel we need an apology. and not only do we need an apology but the apology has to sound and look exactly how we imagine it would be because if not, it's not good enough. 

Why? Why do we need this? I really wanted to figure this out because I used to be the exact same thing until I understood that 

Sometimes we have to accept an apology that was never given to us.
This is your journey of healing. It all starts with a WHY? Cultivating a healthy relationship  with yourself should always be your priority.

Believe it or not, manifestation and the law of attraction are age-old concepts with origins as far back as Hindu scriptures and Buddhism.
As a verb, manifesting is “to make evident or certain by showing or displaying.” In other words, manifesting is the act or practice of bringing something into your life through belief. It starts first in your thoughts. So how we do that? What it tales to "make it happen" ?

When I talk to women who are in the same place I was 20 years ago, I vividly remember that person. I remember my thoughts, my beliefs, my fears, and my dreams. At the end of the day, you can either evolve or repeat, and if you repeat, you will always get the same outcome.

I transitioned from fear to desire, and it didn't happen overnight. Nothing happens overnight. It's the little micro steps that bring you closer to your goal.

Deep inside, we all know what we want, but sometimes we are afraid to even say it out loud. We fear being judged or labeled, so we don’t pursue it.

You need to want it badly! It’s like the butterfly in the cocoon—you need to break through so you can fly.

I knew the life I’m living right now was available to me. I didn't know how, but I knew it was possible. I knew it would take commitment and discipline to create the life I am enjoying today.

When we talk about relationships we often refer to romantic relationships, husband, boyfriends, partner. but there are other relationships in our lives that can enhance our lifes or can be detrimental to our wellbeing. 

No one gets to decide when enough is enough for YOU. 

When somebody mistreat you, when somebody gaslight you, when somebody takes you for granted, when somebody disrespect you, when somebody doesn't take in consideration your feelings, when somebody break promises constantly, when somebody lie to you over and over again, all those escenarios are abusive! and it IS abuse even if the abuser doesn’t know it or understand their behavioral effects or choices regardless if the person is your romantic partner, your cousin, or your co-worker. 
 You are NOT an awful person for enforcing boundaries. Keep reminding yourself that the boundaries are a healthy choice FOR YOUR SPIRIT AND SOUL.

I promise you, you feel empowered once you set your boundaries, and your self esteem will get a boost. you will feel confidente, and self assured.  Learn to love them from a distance, and wish them well.

Remember your happiness, peace and harmony are your responsibility.
