Enough of your TIME has been spent OBSESSING over your FLAWS - don't you think?💁🏼♀️
STOP🙅🏼♀️what you’re doing. Let’s chat real quick.
You go to take a selfie...because let’s be honest, we all do it, once if not multiple times a day.⠀
✨You fix your makeup. Flip your head upside down to give your hair some sexy volume. Clench your jaw down, maybe tilt your head up, get the right lighting, perhaps show only one side of your face - your "good side"? Pucker your lips, widen your eyes, fix your posture, ensure your brows are still on fleek, stick one leg out so you look skinnier, etc etc etc...The list goes on.✨⠀
Here's what I'm really asking: how much do you have to change about yourself, before you decide to like yourself?
⠀
I get it, I really do. There is nothing wrong with wanting to look like a “snack”, and knowing that you look "better" in certain poses (always the same ones).
Of course, that's not the real problem.❌⠀
The real problem is a developed habit: to immediately SEARCH for your FLAWS before searching for your advantages.⠀
Where else does this habit show up in your life?⠀
I notice that many clients have a constant voice in their head, saying, “you’re not enough”...⠀
You don’t have the right hair color or length..
You aren’t pretty enough..
You’re not ready to make a change..
This is who you are and nothing can change that..
Nobody cares about you..
You aren’t interesting enough..
You aren’t enough..⠀
So you WAIT.
You hide. Until you’re “perfect” enough.⠀
You settle for the AVERAGE life you have, because you DON’T LOVE YOURSELF enough to SHOW THE F**K UP.⠀
We need a lot of hands 👐 to count the times we didn’t feel like showing up to the gym — due to acne breakouts, not feeling lean enough, fearing that we don’t belong or look the part enough...⠀
But we SHOWED UP ANYWAYS, because SHOWING UP=LOVING YOURSElF.⠀
❤️We are not attached to the outcome of whether people will “like” our bodies or not. We don’t really care. We are posting this because at the end of our lives, we will be glad that we SHOWED UP, instead of hiding.❤️⠀
Time to obsess over your gifts. Share your message. Show up.⠀
The world needs you NOW, not whe
