Letting go of expectations

Stepping Up for the Working Mom
Letting go of expectations
Show Notes

After finding myself feeling as though I should have done more, or been more "productive", I started questioning why I was feeling guilty for taking time for me.

It came down to the expectations I was placing on myself. Things I was supposed to be doing because if I did them that meant I was a good business owner, a good mom, etc. By not doing those things I was then a bad business owner and a bad mom. Neither of these is true.

I eventually surrendered and listened to my body. I slowed down in order to speed up. I found my inspiration, but only after surrendering. So often we move against the tide, and we push ourselves because we have placed unrealistic expectations on ourselves.

Let's stop doing that and start listening to our own needs!!
