#57: "Your Story Matters"
#57: "Your Story Matters"
In this Monday Mindset Episode we talk about how all of our stories matter. When we are going through difficult times we tend to retreat from the world and hide. It is our way of avoiding being hurt, judged, criticized or even being seen. The problem is that living this way provides no solutions and definitely no changes!
Today I share the tops reasons why our stories all matter. When we acknowledge that our stories, experiences and lessons are the make-up of who we are and who we are becoming, we truly can find and create freedom in our lives.
In this episode we talk about:
1. Our stories all matter because we all matter. Everyone has something to contribute, share and give in this world and our stories create who we are. They make a massive impact in our lives and the sooner we acknowledge that, the sooner we can be on the path to being “free” from the weight of our stories.
2. Learn to stand ON your story instead of IN it. The reason why it feels like your story doesn’t matter is because you are continuing to live in it. When we live in it, we are on a repeat cycle of frustration, comparison, resentment, anger and victimhood. No change comes from this cycle.
3. Our stories connect us, remind us that we are human and not alone. We all crave human connection, and we are connected by our stories, our pain and our emotions. We are more alike that different and when we stop giving our stories so much power we actually take back that power to help ourselves feel stronger.
4. What is the purpose or reason for your story? How is it nudging you to become the person you were meant to become? Finding a purpose in our stories, realizing that it is not all about us anymore can truly create a massive shift in our healing and in our energy!
5. Recall a time when you were searching for a solution to a problem and you came across a Facebook group or an online group and realized that there were so many other people struggling with the same thing. When we realize that we are not alone is when we stop judging ourselves for how we have handled our story. This small shift, realizing we are not alone can truly change everything.
