There are a few themes that I find myself returning to in the course of my work, and in the midst of my own everyday life. One such theme is the importance of letting old stories go. Stories that might have served us at one time but no longer do. Stories that at one time kept us safe in dangerous emotional circumstances in the past, but are no longer relevant to our present day. Stories that we’ve continued to believe because creating new ones will require that we muster the courage to practice new ways of showing up in the world.
The thing with our stories is that we believe them.
They are ours, and we’re sticking to them.
But what if we didn’t?
What if we quit believing them?
Quit sticking to them?
There’s only one way to find out, and no better time than now.
