Finding Vulnerability and Self-Compassion in 2023

I end all of my sessions by asking my clients what their biggest takeaway is, so I will begin sharing some of mine monthly. Reflecting on the past year…

2022 was a hard year for me because I finally realized it was time to face my fears. Everything I’m not and want to be is connected to my deep fear of vulnerability.

I’ve struggled with vulnerability most of my life - I struggled with it my entire professional career.

In my head, I told myself I wasn’t good enough and if people found out who I really was they would reject me so I’ve always tried to appear perfect, or just stay small and not be seen.

I didn’t know what else to do. The pain and shame were too much to feel.

This past year though, I stopped hiding. I stopped trying to be small.

Now it’s time to share my story. My story is what makes me passionate about what I do and allows me to hold space for individuals as a life coach with newfound courage.

I’m ready to embrace the truth about who I am and how I’m feeling.

Thanks for reading,
