This week we dive into something extra personal for me - snapshots of struggles in my own life story. We’ll explore the power of the choices we all make and why we often struggle to believe that we’re just as capable as anyone else to create the life we want. And I’ll give you some encouragement so you can go out and find your own freedom! In this episode, you’ll learn: Why assumptions about someone else having it “easier than me” dismiss the reality of our power How comparison (harder/easier) can keep us stuck and distracted from what we need to do next The role of resilience and scrappy choices in creating freedom Why your accomplishments matter — whether or not you had help along the way Resources: // Episode 21: Define Your Freedom // Episode 93: Wake the F*ck Up! // Episode 174: Decolonize Your Mind – A Story of My Mother and Me // Episode 235: What’s Possible When We Let Go of Our Story // If you’re new to the squad, grab the Rebel Buddhist Toolkit I created at RebelBuddhist.com.
