It's terrifying at first to start doing your own thing, to start walking your own unique path. Your body will often be yelling at you to stop because your wiring isn't familiar with what's about to happen next - it doesn't know how to protect you!

My body does this every time I start something big and new - I get sleepy a lot, I procrastinate, sometimes I freeze up, and it's a pain until I've gone through the new motions a few times.

That doesn't mean it isn't worth doing, though.

It actually makes it MORE worth doing. Because when we learn to walk beyond the walls of our perceived limits, the world can open in new ways we couldn't have predicted or imagined.

And the people who criticize you or walk away when you start showing up more fully...well, they're on their own journey. Let them go figure it out on their timeline.

I know that's easier said than done. But it's true.

And you're going to trigger a bunch of people who aren't ready to look beyond what's in front of them. I mean, if they don't allow themselves to bend or break the 'rules,' how dare you think you can do it?

There's often a deep, underlying resentment that they likely don't even understand. But if one day they allow themselves to wander beyond the limits of their own restrictions, they'll come back.

And if they don't, that's okay. You'll connect with others. That I promise.

If you're working through this process, the Cycle Breakers program begins in September. This is a year long program for those committed and dedicated to changing old patterns. To bringing their patterns to light and slowly and intentionally meeting themselves with more safety, generosity, compassion, and accountability as they begin to break old cycles and patterns of relating to themselves, others and the world. And it's done in small, supportive, heart-centered community (and no, it's not free :)

Let go of the story that says you should have known better. You knew what you knew. You did what you could. Now you can do things differently.
