Ep 17 | What I learned about myself by lightening my mental load
In today's episode, I'm excited to share my personal journey of transforming my beliefs around communication and learning to trust myself to express my thoughts and feelings openly.
You know how sometimes we see communication as a battlefield and try to avoid it at all costs, fearing confrontations?
Well, that used to be me, not too long ago! This mindset can lead to feelings of detachment and eventually crumbling under pressure.
But guess what? Avoiding communication only leads to misunderstandings, missed opportunities, and tense relationships.
So, join me in this episode as I spill the beans on how I tackled this challenge through my journaling practice and by staying curious about myself.
In this episode, you will learn:
- How to become the person who confidently communicates your feelings and see how this can help ease overwhelm, frustration, and uncertainty.
- How to give yourself permission to feel all the feelings - even the uncomfortable ones.
- What strategies you can use to lighten your mental load, paving the way for a more balanced and satisfying life for you and your loved ones.
- Powerful questions to guide you in recognising and easing the weight of your thoughts.
And remember, you don't have to put all the weight on one conversation to fix everything.
Just keep the lines of communication open, and I promise you'll see improvements in your relationships, confidence, and self-image.
Have a listen and take these new thoughts and apply them to your own life. My hope is that sharing my story will help you rewrite a belief or narrative that you've held onto for far too long.
