Doing hard (scary) things is the spark that reveals your true strength.

I did something super scary today. Like, not even really THAT scary. I didn't bungee jump or run into a burning building or flee a failing country with my child.

But for me, super scary.

Because sometimes stepping up and doing a really hard thing and committing to growing is the scariest thing you will ever do.

We all love our comfort zones. We might want to do bigger things and go after our dreams in bigger ways, but it's pretty scary to move out of the comfort of what we know. What we know might not really fit us anymore - like that pair of jeans that I am totally someday going to get back into - but it's what we know. And what we know is easy.

Stepping out of that is scary.

Committing to doing the hard work and being extremely uncomfortable for a while is scary.

But the reward is that when you do the scary thing, it's not so scary anymore. It's actually kinda exciting.

And you find out how strong you are, and what amazing things you can create when you are just willing to take a leap of faith and fling yourself out of the known in the direction of the thing you really want.

Have you ever taken a big leap of faith? What hard thing could you do today to take a giant step out of your comfort zone and toward the life you are meant to live?

Either way, go do something hard today. Show yourself what you are really made of. You can do it.

You can't create better for yourself if you don't see better IN yourself.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and wanted to change everything? Or felt like you were not good enough in any possible way?

I certainly have. I have always been horribly critical of myself, and it impacts everything.

I couldn't figure out why I was attracting so many negative experiences to my life where the person or experience seemed to prove to me that I really wasn't worth much of anything.

I'd done all the meditating and visualizing. I'd read all the books.

But you know what I hadn't done?

I hadn't truly worked on loving myself.

And it dawned on me - how was I ever going to attract better to my life if I couldn't see better in myself?

So, I started the (very hard) work of radically loving myself.

I decided to start seeing my flaws as assets.

And I finally acknowledged the good things about me (things I never acknowledged, because I thought I was being vain or bragging to admit something good about me).

And EVERYTHING changed. My life became so much happier. I attracted great things to me.

And I started offering what I learned to others.

Have you tried radically loving yourself? Has it helped you?

Setting healthy boundaries for empaths - why it's so freaking hard!

Do you find it very hard to disconnect from someone you love who is draining you?

Or to say "no" when you cannot do something, but you sense the other person's need?

Or to shut down from everything you've been feeling all day and be able to rest at night?

If so, you are like most empaths - you have a hard time having healthy boundaries.

For most of us, we've been taught that boundaries are a bad thing. In fact, if you had narcissists in your life that wanted to take all your energy and have you always ready to help them, they likely called you "selfish," "conceited," or worse when you tried to establish a healthy boundary with them.

If that happened, you likely internalized that, and now associate "healthy boundary" with "I am a selfish, horrible person for even considering such a thing."

It's time to undo that damage right now.

A boundary is simply a line drawn that indicates what is okay with you and what's not okay with you.

And, for an empath, a boundary is also "I am willing to take on this much energy from you, but I will not take that energy from you."

If you want to see why setting boundaries is so hard for us as empaths - and learn how to start setting them without feeling awful - check out my video below.

You can do this. You deserve to have healthy boundaries. You deserve to decide when you take on other's energy, pain, or issues, and when you don't want to do that.

It's not selfish. It's healthy.

Why Empaths go beyond the point of burnout - and how to take care so you don't!

✔️Do you feel guilty when you need to shut down for a while?

✔️Are you sometimes not even able to respond to a text, because that is energy you just don't have?

✔️Do you feel weird or weak when you need to hide in your room for a while - or a whole weekend - because you simply cannot take one more bit of stimulation?

✔️Is it almost impossible for you to stop helping, even when you KNOW you are on the way to burn out (or are already there)?

👂 If this sounds familiar, listen up (I speak from real life experience here):

Empaths are more prone to burnout and compassion fatigue than any other group, but they deal with it completely differently.

How so?

A caring non-empath might get to burnout and go numb, get worn out, realize they are going to get sick, and then they will stop helping or shut down (or both). They will detach from the situation and stop caring. A survival instinct kicks in and they stop.

They will, basically, save themselves.

An empath will have all the same issues of sleeplessness, stress, exhaustion, irritability, and increased illness - maybe even serious illnesses - but he or she will NOT stop giving, taking care of whoever or whatever, or basically saving the world.

This is how so many empaths end up seriously ill; they go to the place of total burnout and, despite every sign that they are going to break, they keep pushing forward.

Their need to help overrides their need for self-care.

A sick empath helps no one. Honor your need to recharge. It's okay to shut down. If you don't protect your energy, no one else will do it for you.
