Imagine going into a room full of 50 strangers with the task of making “small-talk” for several hours 🤢. For introverts, empaths, and highly sensitive people like us, small-talk can feel like torture. But let’s rewind a bit…
Several weeks ago, my husband and I attended his 20-year high school reunion. Let’s just say there were a LOT of mixed emotions (for both of us).
On the drive there, we’re utilizing the tools we’ve learned to work through anxiety and psych ourselves/each other up. We walk in and guess what? We showed up confident AF! And honestly, everyone loved us (except for a couple of homophobic a**holes, but those are bound to crop up in a small country town–but that’s a rant for a different day). We were both doing our own thang and didn’t even get a picture together! (like, who even are we?! 🤯😁)
You see, there was a time in my life when I would have opted to stay home, letting my husband attend alone. The noise, talking to strangers, and the responsibility of managing other people’s perceptions of me used to fry my nervous system before I was even put in the situation 🤮
But here’s the thing—I’ve discovered and developed some incredible tools 🛠, and I’ve been teaching them to my students. They’re truly life-changing! In fact, a past client recently reached out to me after a major emotional situation, and here’s what they had to say:
“[The tools I learned from you] turned into an instinct. When a big emotion is coming or it hits, before it’s in full force, there’s now a gatekeeper. And the gatekeeper helps sift through the emotion and where it’s coming from. Working with you created a muscle memory for me. I was always able to analyze [my emotions] but in a MUCH LONGER process. Now it’s right there at the forefront helping guide me through and finding the core. Now I can redeem myself and grow/move on MUCH FASTER.”
These tools are POWERFUL! No, they aren’t a magic pill that poof instantly make your life all lollipops 🍭 rainbows 🌈 and unicorns 🦄. Instead, they’re like a set of finely crafted tools that, when used with dedication, guidance, and consistent practice, can transform your life. But remember, a hammer left unused in a toolbox isn’t going to help you build anything.
When you have a multitude of tools at your disposal, learn how to wield them effectively, and confidently apply them in the real world, you become a master builder, crafting a masterpiece of a life you love and not something like this:
Not sure where to start? No worries—I’ve got your back. Here are 3 questions to help you start taking stock:
- What tools do I have and know how to use effectively?
- How consistently do I use my tools?
- In what situations do I find myself either needing tools OR knowing I have the tools but struggling to use them in the moment?
If you need tools and guidance, and feel ready to start your journey or take it to the next level, let’s work together for 12 weeks. You and me. Let’s go!
