Things feel REALLY HEAVY right now! Can I get an "AMEN!"?
Seriously.
I tried balancing all the things -
- Work
- School for the boys
- Mental health
- Physical health
- Cleaning the bathroom
Let's just say - no one will ever hire me as a juggler or a housekeeper. The expectations I've been putting on myself are ridiculous. It was time to adjust my outlook in a big way. So, I'm taking COVID-19 as an opportunity to get real. A painful but necessary realization that I'm only human. Taking a hard look at my humanness (an actual word) showed me that I need to be WILLING to feel it ALL.
- All the anxiety
- All the joy
- All the discomfort and peace that comes from letting go of those unreasonable expectations.
I've recorded this 6-minute video episode for you! We got this!
