Do you feel you're meant for better things?

Or that you're just not using all your gifts?

You want to play bigger but something holds you back?

Today I'm exploring the two forces at work during the making of change, and how they can act like a foot on the accelerator and a foot on the brake. 

The force for change, and the force for sameness.

What I know is that change is a process, a verb, not a noun. It takes time.

It can also be understood and supported so that you can step out into a bigger version of yourself and do those wonderful things (like starting a podcast).

So how can you support the force for change AND work creatively with the fearful and often harsh, critical voice for remaining the same?

When you recognise these two parts it becomes easier to work with them.

The counter-intuitive piece is that the voice for sameness, despite it's harsh, shouty nature is fearful and trying to keep you safe. It's protecting you from shame.

It needs kindness, self compassion, self acceptance and encouragement so it can be brought along for the fabulous ride and you can be strengthened by integrating it instead of banishing it.
