Welcome!! This episode is all about my journey to finding peace in the pause instead of the anxiety in the push. Releasing social norms and societal pressure to keep trying to barrel my way through things when they're just not working because "I'm not trying hard enough" or "I'm not doing it right" or "I'm a failure if I don't get this right, or do this right, or master this etc!"

Not true, so so not true. I'm challenging myself to ironically push back in this and instead of trying to push and bulldog my way through every roadblock, I'm going to sit with it, find a gentler approach and maybe even come to terms with the thought that things just have to happen in their own time.

Hear about my recent struggle with applying to grad school and a book that I'm currently "reading" on Audible that is confirming my beliefs in this topic. The book is The Way of Integrity by Martha Beck and I highly recommend checking it out!

Please listen, review and share! Thank you so much! EnJOY!
