Your Capacity for Self-Love Grow
I often want to believe that this is not true because it feels cliche and mushy to talk about self-love.
But ...
I have coached, trained, and led, countless people and groups of all different identities and one of the root fears that we end up getting underneath is a fear of not being loved and accepted.
And that fear permeates the way we communicate, the way we are in relationships, the decisions we make and don't make, our choices, how we use power, our businesses and how we lead.
If you are not doing the work to love who you've been, who you are, and who you are becoming, you are likely only getting to experience a fraction of what you are capable of in living, leading, and loving.
For most of us, this is a life long journey.
Which means even when you are doing the work to genuinely and consistently trust who you are - there will be moments, days, and even weeks where you are hard on yourself, have self-doubt, and perhaps wish something was different.
That's ok. That is to be human.
I like to think the goal is to know ourselves enough that we can tell when our need to be loved and accepted is having us behave or make choices that don't align with what we really want.
