What your resistance can teach you
October 13, 2024
I had been struggling with a decision for months. I had hired an expert to guide me toward the results I wanted, but things weren’t unfolding as I expected.
I kept hearing that reliable inner voice telling me, “make a change” and “do this instead,” but I resisted, trusting the expert more than my own intuition.
After some reflection, I realized I was afraid of making the wrong decision. Instead of moving forward, I remained stuck, frustrated, and far from where I wanted to be.
But….
Eventually, I bit the bullet and followed my inner voice.
Another trust fall.
Within days, my life began to shift in the ways I had hoped for—ways I had been waiting for not just months, but maybe even years. The results came, and I was amazed!
Once again, I learned that trusting my inner voice is the key. It’s funny how I sometimes still wrestle with that divine guidance, even though it has NEVER steered me wrong. That ego can be so damn persuasive!
But here’s the truth: my body is a better guide than my mind every single time.
I am always better off when I lean into the fear, take a risk, and trust myself—even when an “expert” is involved.
So, what about you?
Do you ever find yourself making decisions from a place of fear?
Is there a decision you’re wrestling with that’s got you stuck? Do the facts, stats, and expert advice conflict with what your gut is telling you?
I get it. Taking a risk feels daunting when the stakes are high.
But here’s the good news: when you re-learn to trust yourself, no matter what the expert outside voices say, you can take those risks and lean into the fear.
I’ve got a simple guide to help you learn to trust yourself. The Out of Your Mind, Into Your Body Check-In Process will support you in being fully present and available to the truth, wisdom, and intelligence within you.
Because, at the end of the day, you are the best expert on all things YOU.
Remember, you’re not alone. You are divinely supported and guided. You just need to learn to listen in, and you’ll receive all the clarity you need. Stay connected to source, trust the wisdom within, and allow yourself to stay in the flow of life.
Life is always working for your highest good.
Trust that!
