It got me thinking about my younger self. My scared, timid, not confident, shy self. The people pleaser, yes ma'am, desperately seeking approval- self. I realized how much I've shed that skin. How I'm not the same woman I was in my teens or my twenties, and how I got there. To being confident, achieving my dreams, and writing my own destiny. It was a mindset and focus shift.
So friends, before you go calling me an A-hole because I kindly decline your phone call or coffee date. Or before you go asking another service based provider for free advice, think about it. I'd rather just go for a coffee or phone catch up because we're friends.
Underestimate me, That'll be fun. I never identified with that quote, but this past week, the "gentlemen's club" put me in an interesting position.

I know comparison is the thief of joy, but I can't help but see everyone on FB and Instagram, zenning out, with their perfect poses, and I'm just not feeling it. I am feeling more calm.. and I'm beginning to understand what "leave it on the mat" means. I look forward to that "mat time".. "me time" every day, but physically, I'm challenged.

Before I became a business strategist, I was an ICU Nurse and End of Life Care Nurse. I've saved many people from death and I've helped people die with dignity. When our time comes, we truly are stripped down into the shell of body. I've seen that first hand. All of our worries, fear, anger, regret, material possessions, degrees, it doesn't really matter. What matter is how we've lived and how we've loved.
