I recently posted a quote on Instagram saying “I have decided that I no longer want to be all that I can be. And I for sure do not want to live up to my potential.” And y’all, I got some responses from people that just did not agree, telling me that I should retract the post and highlighting all the reasons why I was wrong.
There is so much socialization and patriarchal conditioning that impacts what the world thinks we, as women, are supposed to do. Other people decide what our potential is and that we should live up to those expectations, and that we aren’t inherently worthy unless we are doing so. But as humans, we are capable of a lot, so do we really, truly want to be living up to everything we are capable of?
In this episode, I’m talking more about reaching our potential and what that means for us as women. I’m encouraging you to consider what it means to reach your potential and whether there is anything you want to change for yourself, and why I truly believe that you get to be whoever you want to be, on your terms, in a way that is healthy and sustainable for you.
