How to Know When A Forgiveness is in Order
This post will explain why you owe yourself an apology, not to someone who wronged you, but to yourself for all of the times you gave your power away to those you felt would know better than you.
“A forgiveness is in order…for all of the times that you gave your power away to those that you felt would know better than you.”
A forgiveness is in order.
Not for someone that wronged you, per se, but for yourself for all of the times that you gave your power away to those that you felt would know better than you.
For the times when:
When you blindly took their advice, and it didn’t feel right, but you still did it anyway.
When you were told that your dream was silly, and you believed them.
When you took their vision for your life, over your own.
But, “When you know better, you do better.”
What if this ‘knowing’ is a better understanding of yourself.
Once you know that no one knows better than you what YOU need, or what your deepest dreams and desires about YOUR life truly are…you gain your power back to do better.
Plain and simple.
Aligning your life back with your truth is a process of trial and error.
And, not internalizing the errors and making them about you as a person.
It’s continual awareness.
Followed by a lot of awkwardness (as you find your own voice).
As you align your ambition with YOU back into authority over your life.
When you’re aware of these patterns, you can quickly get back into alignment when things go awry.
Coaching provides accountability, support, & TLC as you take new risks and someone else to troubleshoot when obstacles arise and you want to retreat back to old patterns out of habit.
Then, we’ll simply realign your ambition as you get back in the driver seat, with a toolkit of resources to get back, faster until you reach your destination. Let’s connect.
Healing self sabotaging behaviors
ABOUT THE AUTHOR I’m Meg Smithson and I remember vividly the heartache, distress, and agony that self sabotaging behaviors caused me. Between eating disorders, anxiety, major self doubt, and constant imbalance, I couldn’t seem to live the fulfilling life I imagined.
If you are currently dealing with this, I get it & know exactly how you feel.
I spent a decade of heartache striving to fit the elusive mold of what mainstream considered “perfect” all while trying to figure out why I was put on this earth.
I learned to listen to what I needed…
…not what others expected of me. Gradually, I felt freedom like I had never imagined I could.
What does a relationship coach do?
Now, I teach women to find that freedom, too, by helping them create the relationship that they really want, faster by first healing their attachment to shame, people pleasing, & perfectionism.
