The Full Expression of BEing Human

"What have you been denying in yourself that it’s time to put out in the world?" - Dr. Melissa Bird

In this week's episode, I have the privilege of speaking with Clairvoyant Life Coach, Public Speaker and Founder of Natural Born Rebel, Dr. Melissa Bird.

We get into a lot of different things but the overarching theme is that most of us could improve at BEing human - admitting who we truly are in ALL of our big-ness and/or processing authentic emotions. And, how that's not a "bad" thing.

- We talk about how to show up in life (and business), right at the level you’re at. Being human, and being who YOU are, without having to fix it, plump it or shrink it.

- We talk about toxic gratitude. (You've got to listen to hear more about this one - it's important!)

- We talk about investing in our businesses - how and why we don't have to do all the things on our own. And, why the growth often comes when we're not.

- We talk about how we misunderstand the face of poverty, particularly in the US. And, why it's important to support small and local businesses. (I told you, we get into ALL the things!)

Do yourself a favor, listen to this episode and give yourself some space to process whatever comes up for you. It'll be worth it. And, if you need another human to bounce some things off of or to just affirm your human BEing, reach out to me on Instagram (@caryngillen). I'm always here for that!

Some questions to ask yourself...

- "What 'too’s' have I been called? And, how have I believed them?"
- "I'm here now. Clearly, this is for me. So, what’s here?"
- "Where am I clenching? How can I unclench?"
- "Do I allow myself to wail?"
- "What’s my reaction to poverty? Where can I let some oxygen and some humanity in - and just look at that, to see what’s there?"
