☕Okay grab a cuppa coffee, pull up a comfy chair and let's have a chat.
This has been running around in my head for days now. You know those things that keep showing up in your conversations, news feeds, movies, shows, radio commercials...you get the idea. The synchronicities of the theme. The theme nudging me is around being yourself. I know the whole (say it with me with sarcasm) authenticity. This is a topic that doesn't seem to have a definitive term. The whole argument of am I being me...but if you hide pieces of you then it's not authentically you showing up. (You know this argument) The argument continues with you hide bits of yourself for different reasons..fear of judgment, shame, we fear rejection.etc. Now insert a big sigh.... I get it, I have those fears too. We ALL have those fear of rejection, shame, fear, judgment and they are ongoing for many different things. One thing I have come to learn is people will always judge you . #Truthbomb dropping. I mean it ...seriously ....there is always someone out there ready to judge any moment of time. Now, wait before you snark at me a "what a pep talk Maggs"... The facts are just stated, the part I want you to look at and dig into is what you hold back. How does that make you feel? Does it make you feel small, sad, confused? Do you spend time worrying and anxious do you panic when you think that hidden part might have shown up? Maybe you just find things difficult to push forward, conversations are harder and you drag around dread. Although when you finally get to bring out the hidden piece you feel relief, comfort and free. You seem to be busting full of creativity and joy. You just seem to be riding a wave of happiness and an abundance of good vibes. Yeah, you know exactly what I am talking about. Okay, this isn't magic and mind-reading I am doing. It is called, I experienced it too. I struggled and feared and listened to the wrong people. I would hide pieces, I even hid my talents and beliefs out of fear of judgment and rejection. What happened was I was still judged and ultimately rejected because I was not still never good enough for them. Let me say it actually was a huge gift they gave me. It of course hurt at first, but I realized these people never cared for me. They never truly valued me for ME. Only the things they thought were how I could benefit them, how could they use me. When I was finally freed and released and I pushed passed the hurt HOLY SHIT it felt so good. I realized I am no longer going to be afraid, I am not going to worry if you feel I don't fit your vibe. COOL...no hard feeling but now move along and stop blocking the way for my real peeps. (You have this amazing power too😉) Real peeps are the ones who love you for you. The ones who love you for being wrong in all the right ways. They don't follow the crowd, they don't fear the dragons, and they stir up amazing stuff in the cauldron of life. I encourage you to take that leap, look at those bits you are hiding or (big parts of yourself) and realize keeping them secret... they hold you back. They bring your fear into the forefront. They have you dragging dread along with you. They stifle your creativity. Are you ready to take the leap? Are you ready to open up your creativity? Wanting to kick anxiety in the cauldron? Then let's do this. Make a promise...not to me but to yourself that you will from here on out show up in all ways that feel right for you.(Okay maybe careful with wardrobe choice for work😉) Show up and feel good about what you say and do and skills you chose to now share. You are an amazing beautiful human who deserves to be seen for the amazingness you possess. Let the world celebrate you and honor you. Because believe it or not that is what you will receive way more than those who judge you or shame you. Rise my dear...the world is waiting for you. ❤
