It's about choice. Knowing who you BE, understanding your habits in who you are, how they get in your way, and how to develop a way to choose.
We all have habits of being that were grooved into us long ago. In how we were raised, in who we are when we're born, and in what we go through in our lives. These are unconscious, and help us navigate our world. Just as we outgrow our jeans, we can also outgrow our habits, but we don't often realize that this has happened.
So how do you gain awareness of this, so that you can stop getting in your own way and choose a life of intention? How do we manage to feel steady enough to see who we really are, so that we can ask these questions of ourselves? Well, I think, joy is key. It supports us in our humanity, in seeing ourselves without judgement, and in seeing the humanity of others as well. It enables both hope, and grace. Hope in something better, and grace for lapses in ourselves and others.
All this is why, in my fifth year, I'm doing these podcasts. These topics matter. More than ever.
