My inner critic roars loudly. It tells me... If you stay small you won’t feel the judgey eyes as much.
⠀⠀
I carry a strong shield of perfectionism. If I do it all perfectly then I can avoid shame, blame, judgment and criticism. It stops the real me from being seen. Plus it’s a HUGE time suck trying to swing it all. Thanks to listening to lots of Brené Brown lately I’m coming to terms with why I stay small and safe with my shield around me.
⠀⠀
I’m working hard to put my guard down and share more. Social media is hard since I like to be private yet love connecting with friends and meeting new people that share similar interests. But if I want to speak on the big stage I need to work through this crap.
⠀⠀
I know I have so much helpful info to share and I get great pleasure from knowing it is helping others. But it makes me wanna puke to be vulnerable!! So, I’m making a goal to try to share more. Help me by interacting or asking questions or mentioning health topics you want to dig into. When I know it’s useful info it fuels me to keep going.
