Untethered with Jen Liss

Embracing imperfection and how to let go through self-acceptance

What’s on your mind, unicorn? 🦄 Send me a text!

Are you a procrastinator? A perfectionist? Does fear get in your way? 

When we notice these "flaws" or "dragons" within ourselves, we will often try to push them away. But what if – instead of slaying your dragons – you invite them over for tacos? 

Shaming our flaws has long been an integral part of the self-development world. In fact, I was just introduced to a book yesterday where the author encouraged personifying your flaws as a villain and then consistently hunting down and killing that villain every day. I completely disagree with this approach.

The healthiest, most enjoyable, and most lasting approach to dealing with the most challenging parts of your personality? Accept them. Be compassionate with them. Love them. Realize they are, in fact, your super power.

Listen to this episode to hear:

  • Why unshaming your flaws is essential in moving toward your dreams
  • How to see, understand and embody your flaws as the superpower they are
  • A practice you can do for feeling your "flawed" feelings, while choosing to move forward (with or without them)
