What do you think about when you hear the word “enough?”

In this episode, I’m going to tackle what I see as two different (and often competing!) realms of being and doing enough and then offer ways to help you redefine the word according to your own standards. (Amen and hallelujah to that, right?!)

First: Am I enough? This is all about YOU and how it feels to be you in your life and showing up to yourself. 

Second: Am I doing enough? AKA why having a strong value of service does not mean you have to sacrifice your humanity in order to show up for the world. 

I also cover the power of your values, self-alignment, the importance of not measuring your worth based on somebody else’s standards, and why those tiny little steps are the way to start. Oh! And then I wrap it all up with talk of seeds, harvest, and how to make an orchard with your life. 

Things I said: 

“Live your life and prove to yourself what you are capable of.”

“If an idea won’t leave you alone, that is the sign that you are the person being gifted with that dream and vision.”

“Service does not mean that you have to sacrifice your humanity.”

“If you’re measuring your worth based on somebody else’s standards it will be impossible to live up to that.” 

“The only starts that we can make are small starts…one step at time.”

“Don’t let that voice that tells you ‘You are not enough’ keep you from doing anything at all.”
