Let's Get Uncomfy

Have you ever felt the tug to start a new project, launch a new business, or find yourself wishing there was something you could do to impact others? But you talk yourself out of it; you let fear overwhelm you and let it kill that creative flame? This episode is for you, my friend because today we are talking about leaning into fear. Understanding the risks that come with fearful moves in life but not letting them stop us from taking action.

This week I was DM’d by a new friend on Instagram, and she asked me for some advice on pursuing something that seemed so scary for her, something that she saw as risky. She inspired me to talk about this more in-depth because fear is a natural part of our lives; we have it to keep us safe and alive in situations that could kill us, like when we are in a forest or something, you know? However, I think it has gotten out of hand, and we are now at a point where fear stops us from taking risks when fear is really meant to push us into doing something about our situation.

I hate so much that there is this cultural thing that we allow to rule our lives, that if we feel fear, we need to stop. When, in fact, I think fear is a reason to go for it. So this is my call to action for you this week. It is time to look fear in the face and go for it, my friend, because you never know who you may impact by taking that risk.

Welcome to the uncomfy fam! You are now officially part of the fam, I hope you are having a great day and ready to dive into another personal development tool that will empower you to live your best life.

Today we are digging into the importance of habits and understanding how our habits create the lives we live. This thought came to me during my morning walk, which is a habit that I have been building through all of 2020. In January I set myself a goal that I would set time and do an intentional walk for at least a mile. This weekend while on my walk I realized how much this habit has transformed the rest of my life and changed other bad habits in my life to good habits.

Time Stamps:

3:05 How my morning mile habit has changed my life.

5:20 Bringing awareness to your bad habits and changing the game for yourself, and getting out of your own way.

10:32 Changing habits and the mindset around your lifestyle.

Welcome back to the Let’s Get Uncomfy Podcast!

I am so grateful you are here with me on this wonderful Thursday. In this episode, we are digging into the topic of selfishness, and we are going to take a look at the shame around being selfish.

This topic came up for me through a session with my mindset coach Hilay Farooq. I had her as a guest a few weeks back and after that episode, I realized I needed to invest in my feminine alignment, so I hired Hilay and have been digging into the divine feminine within me. This means working on attracting things in life instead of doing, doing, doing, work, work, work. In our session, she led me through a breakthrough while doing this exercise around selfishness, and the shame and guilt that was instilled in me over the years.

So today I want to lead you through that exercise and talk about re-examining selfishness. Because I have found the biggest growth move in my life happened after acting out of self-interest, or self-preservation. But someone else thought it was just pure selfishness.

Important moments to tune in for in this episode:

3:03 Working with Hilay on the divine feminine and how selfishness was brought up in my life recently.

6:31 Why I believe selfishness is not a dirty word, and how to change your perspective around selfishness.

12:00 The exercise Hilay and I did to work thorugh the icky feelings surrounding selfishness.

19:50 Embodying selfishness to empower yourself and not give control to others by shaming you.

Today we are talking comparison, and I am going to be completely honest I am still working on this myself. So what I want to do today is share some of the things I have realized and strategies I use when I feel comparison come up for me in my life, because there are some ways to use these feelings in a positive way. When we learn to reframe our mindset around comparison we open up the possibilities to reframing other not so great habits that we may have built over the years of social media and imposter syndrome. I hope you love this episode and if you do share it with a friend who might need a little bit of love in this area of life. Because the reality is we all are going through it, especially with this curveball of a year. But we have a few more months left that we can either put towards growth, or we can keep doing the bad habits that make us feel like crap. The choice is yours, my friend.

Happy Monday fam!

This week is going to be a little different, I felt the heart tug to shake things up a bit by doing two solocasts this week. If you have been listening to my guest episodes you know I always ask my guests what their hard no and hell yes’s are in life and if you have no idea what I am talking about, make sure you go back and listen to some of the AMAZING hard no’s and hell, yes’s we have had because they are so vastly different but all hit home.

Anyway, I realized that I have not shared my hard no’s or hell yes’s with y’all. So that is what this episode is packed with. I dig into the 10 things that I think we need to stop doing right now, ASAP! And I say “we” because these are very much a work in progress for myself as well, there is nothing on this list that I am a complete master in. So as you are listening to this powerful personal development episode, I hope you remember that we are on this journey together and because I can come to these realizations because I can have this growth, this success, these habits, SO CAN YOU, my friend.

We all have the same amount of time and are all dealing with so many things. But it is what we choose to do with that time and those lessons learned that put us on the paths we walk.

Things to STOP doing today:

(3:50) #1: Overthinking

(6:27) #2: Junkfood & Artificial Shit

(12:26) #3: Saying “I’m sorry” for everything.

(16:01) #4: Putting things off for when “I’m Ready”

(19:51) #5: Living for the approval of others

(24:40) #6: Talking negatively about yourself

(26:51) #7: Judging Others

(29:20) #8: Making Excuses

(33:45) #9: Not taking risks

(36:58)#10: Comparing yourself to others
