Big Girl Pants - Owning Your Strengths & Successes

Create Yourself - Practical Activities for Self-discovery, Transformation and change.

This week, I felt uncomfortable because I started asking people I know to listen to and review my podcast. My podcast has been running for a couple of years now, but up until now, I have done diddly squat to get it out into the world, other than the odd share and mention in my emails to you. It's ridiculous to take the time to create podcast episodes if I don't share them. What’s the point of bothering in the first place if no one knows about it? I’m not joking, some of my close friends didn’t even know I had a podcast until this week! Insane. Over the past few months, I’ve realized that I need to pull on my big girl pants and be more visible. If I want to create a business that makes money, and not just have a very expensive hobby, I need to start talking about and sharing what I do. Where in your life do you need to show up more and shine your light? Maybe, like me, it’s time you were more visible. Could it be time to have that difficult conversation and speak your truth? Take a moment to really ask yourself where in your life you need to find the courage to show up more as your true self. Why not take 5 minutes out of your day and journal, using one of the below prompts. JOURNAL PROMPTS Visibility When was the last time you felt truly seen and heard? What was I doing at that moment? What are three areas of my life where I feel invisible? How can I start to show up more in these areas? What are some small steps I can take this week to make myself more visible in my personal or work life? Comfort Zone What are some activities or situations that make me feel uncomfortable or nervous? Why do they make me feel this way? Think of a time when you stepped out of your comfort zone and it paid off. What happened and how did it feel? What are three new things I can try this month that will push me out of my comfort zone? Speaking Your Truth What truths about myself am I afraid to share with others? Why am I afraid? Reflect on a time when I held back from speaking my truth. What was the outcome? How could it have been different if I had spoken up? Write a letter to someone important in your life expressing something you’ve been holding back. You don’t have to send it, just write it out.
