Discover Your Authentic Self: Embrace the Journey to True Identity

It starts with realizing that you don't actually know who you are 0_0.....

Do you ever wonder why people in their 30's, 40's, and 50's wake up one day and go through a mid-life crisis? It's becoming more common in the younger generation as time goes on.

It's that itchy feeling in the back of your brain that you can't scratch. It's that moment of taking a break from alcohol, drugs, and social media because you forgot what it was like just to breathe, slow down, be present, and manually do anything. Something's wrong; you just have no clue as to where to even begin.

It's suddenly becoming too much, the people you hang out with, the job you're working, the spare time being wasted on escapism ...behaving as if you were living life as a zombie.

Welp, congratulations because you are at the starting line, my friends. The great thing about being here and the scary thing about being here is that no matter what you do, you can't go back. You can try, of course, but now that your subconscious has become conscious, your awareness of this annoying and unshaken feeling will not go quietly ... you must keep going.

It's truly a gift, something that will give you the freedom you always wanted. But please know, you do have to work for it.

Now that we are here, the start of this journey begins with authenticity.

I can hear you sucking your teeth on the other side of this screen already! Oh goodness, really, is that it? No, that's not it, but it's where you begin. I can imagine you believe you fully and genuinely know yourself, and some of you might. But knowing yourself is much more than the experiences you had leading up to where you are now.

It's much deeper, what you will spend the most time doing is fighting your way into your subconscious and bringing the unseen, unheard, and ignored up to the surface. Truly allowing presence in your life. No longer allowing yourself to be asleep at the wheel.

This is why people start with therapy, which is something I can relate to and recommend, but don't become discouraged if you think you have to start with a purchase, although it is recommended because it gives you something to be committed to and held accountable for. You can always start with a self-help book, journaling, or meditation. Leading up to working with a wellness coach or mentor.

You have to become aware of yourself, your habits, thoughts, and feelings, and you need to be able to put it down in writing. That way, you can reflect on it later and start to notice the patterns in your life. Isolation is also key for getting to know yourself. You, surrounded by nothing but your own energy. No outside influences to distract or manipulate you.

Believe me, it takes time to get to know this part of you, and even then, as you learn, change, and grow, you will need to remain patient and resilient. Messing up is also part of the process as we are not perfect and adjusting to this change takes time. Remember, it took you all your life, until now, to realize that there was something wrong, and so the years of undoing and conditioning have to be peeled back. Do not berate yourself in the process, I'm sure you've done that enough for most of your life.

You got this!

Again, I know it sounds like a lot of work and it does get tough, but remember, there is NO going back. Trying to do so will be much tougher than actually doing the work.

These tools are the beginning of your journey...and if you need help, my blog will help provide you with the tools for self-liberation. So stick around because, at this point, life is just getting started.
