Hey girl,

How was your St. Patty's Day?

We spent time looking for 4 leaf clovers, eating green donuts & cheering on our favorite little leprechaun at his first baseball tournament of the season.

Yep, it was a pretty busy weekend for the Nichol crew. However, the one thing that I'm most proud of is honoring my body in the midst of all the fun events WITHOUT the fear of gaining weight.

You see, gaining weight use to be my biggest fear.

I mean, flying in a plane was also scary. & snakes, well I'm terrified of those as well.

But, nothing was as frigtening to me than gaining weight.

& even when I knew I needed to gain weight for my health...it was the ONE thing I just couldn't seem to get past.

Maybe you have this same fear.

Maybe you live in the same thought cycle that I experienced, where every single food choice you make on the daily is centered around whether or not if will make you gain weight.

This thinking is all wrong. This thinking is keeping you stuck.

But you can decide to change your mind at any given moment.

~

Reality is, being small doesn't make you better. Being small doesn't make you more worthy. Being small doesn't mean you will have a more prosperous life.

...it's actually the exact opposite.

Your life doesn't grow when your body shrinks...you just learn to tolerate the misery of running on fumes...until one day you just can't.

You see sis, your life grows when you choose to not be measured by unhealthy standards of this world.

Your life grows when you decide to honor your body, face your fear & show up for yourself in your authentic truth. 

The biggest lie that I believed was that a smaller me was a better me. 

Don't you dare believe that lie friend!

A smaller you is definitely a different you....but it won't make you any better. 

~

The BEST version of you is the version that lives unrestricted. 

The BEST version of you is the version that lives without controlling your weight.

~

You deserve a life, FREE from the controlling chains & fears of gaining weight.

I hope Episode 126 speaks to your heart today & that you take some time to do this 4 step strategy, so that you can completely heal your life & decide to make a change.

You totes got this!

xo,

lindsey
