What if your goal wasn’t only about the money in the bank or the weight on the scale? What if it was about who you BECOME in the process?
How much more confident, caring and skilled do I need to become to be a fully booked mental health professional?
When I first started online dating, I was not good. My pictures were selfies with bad lighting. I was scared to message people, so I just waited for people to message me.
And, news flash, the majority of people who messaged me were not people who I wanted to date.
On March 16th, I was halfway through reading Cave in the Snow about Tenzin Palmo, one of the first Western women to become a Bhuddist monk. She lived and meditated in a cave for 12 years, 10 feet wide and 6 feet deep. She didn’t have a bed, only a meditation box that she sat in and meditated all night. No electricity or running water.
As a young girl watching Disney princesses, I learned they always needed to be completed by a man. And so I got the idea that in order to be complete I needed a husband.

I was going to write about healthy boundaries today but I was so inspired by the events of this past weekend, I had to write about this. [Stay tuned, I’ll be sharing even more about healthy boundaries next week!]
