Episode 130
I wonder if you can relate to growing up and watching
your mother and grandmother (father, grandfather, aunt, uncle) making
everything perfect. Bedrooms were perfect, sheets ironed, dinner table
gorgeous, clean up immediately, always being sure everything was in order?
For my guest Lauren Best, the stress of working so hard for these moments of
perfection were exhausting, and so she grew up around this questioning, “ this
is really not cool, but am I supposed to be that way?”
She felt so strongly that
her body needed rest. She didn't know how to say, “I want to help you, but I
don't have the energy,” because everyone else was still going. Lauren learned
to not give herself that permission to acknowledge that perhaps she functioned differently,
or her energy level is different.
As an adult Lauren struggled with uncertainty and feeling like she had to
have all of the answers before she started something. Locked in the fear of not
being perfect, Lauren was exhausted, missed opportunities, and developed physical
and emotional issues.
She finally sought guidance and discovered it was OK not to be a type “A”
personality and how to listen to what her body was telling her she needed. Lauren
now embraces her flaws and finds more comfort in what she doesn’t know. She now
makes decisions based on self-trust and following her energetic flow and
intuition instead of making fear-based decisions.
