In today's podcast, we're talking all about embracing discomfort.
Learning how to embrace discomfort has been something I've been working on for most of my life.
But especially since I started doing this work and solo traveling back in 2012, I had to learn how to step outside of my comfort zone and do things that did not feel comfortable at the time.
I'm such an advocate for doing things that don't feel comfortable because I know the power behind it. I know that when you start stepping into discomfort, you're going to grow as a person, you are going to evolve, and you're going to come out stronger on the other side.
Humans are wired not to go towards uncomfortable feelings and discomfort. We want what's comfortable. We want what we know feels good and what will keep us safe. But what happens when you stay in safety? You stay there, and nothing happens. But when you step into the feelings of uncertainty, discomfort, and unknowingness, that's when you grow.
Get Comfortable, Being Uncomfortable
One of my favorite phrases that my mentor has told me numerous times is to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. That phrase has helped me through so many challenges in my life. And it's a mantra that I repeat to myself daily. And I want you to have that mantra and use it when you need it. Get comfortable being uncomfortable. It's so powerful because, you know, going into it, you're going to be uncomfortable. But you need to get used to that feeling. That's something that we don't normally do. We don't want to feel it. So we avoid it. But when you embrace discomfort and surround yourself with it and dive into it, you know that you're going to start feeling comfortable with that feeling. And it's going to be less scary.
