Do you feel willing?
Can you allow feeling like crap?
Can you accept even feeling a twinge of discomfort?
My coach asked me those questions. My honest assessment was a decided reluctance. Iβve studied this work long enough to know that allowing life to be 50% awesome and 50% terrible is the perfect balance of being a human; allowing the full human experience. Yet, practically, my primitive brain is getting way too much airtime about this. She is so gifted at convincing me that feeling even the slightest bit negative is wholly unnecessary.
If something doesnβt feel quite right, there are so many easy fixesβ¦.

And then?? That empty space that follows.
Is this the life I really want? No.
But, I am so damn excited about that life just beyond that unpleasant ache. Fasten your seatbelts.
