One thing one person says can sometimes stick with you forever. A one-on-one training client at #retrofitness a decade ago was telling me about her weekend trip with her husband…
“We did a lot of walking but we did get donuts…” I reassured her that a donut on vacay isn’t something to feel guilty about.
“Well… we bought a dozen and couldn’t really just bring them home so we split them between the two of us…” I offered zero shame or judgment and only possible solutions for next time, such as getting 3 different ones to share and cutting them in half if you want a few diff flavors.
“What would you even know about things like this?” she asked, suddenly abrasive. “You don’t even have a family or a real job.”
OUCH.
So here I am, however many years later, a wildly successful full time fake job person with an amazing husband and family of cats and bunnies.
And she just popped up on my feed as a suggested FB friend, looking miserable.
This isn’t me giving her a karma-filled poke from afar. It’s the mindset for me. Feel stuck = be stuck. Feel like you have so much to offer and so far to go in life = go places and make shit happen.
