KITTEN TALK 30: Liberation
Greetings Kittens!
I hope you all have been well since the last time I posted here.
I know I know it's been a while since I posted, but I have a valid excuse: I been growing LOL.
In all seriousness, I have been growing emotionally, spiritually, mentally, etc these past few months, but I feel I recently met the crossroads, where I had to make a choice: continue living as I am or pivot into the path I am meant to go through.
Sometimes the best decisions for us can feel like the scariest ones. Sometimes we are so afraid to go after what makes us happy because we're so used to comfort and not taking the risks. We may have lived in false comforts, being uncomfortable and just dealing with it rather than being honest with ourselves and doing something about it.
There were things making me unhappy, things that took up too much of a time in a negative way, things that I had lingering and putting off to " the next day" because I didn't want to deal with it head on.
So, it seems especially in the past 2 months, I was at this point of " You continue to do this or we're now going to pivot."
And I chose to pivot.
See I know when I am uncomfortable, when I am unhappy, when I am not satisfied.
It was a matter of I continue to be unhappy, or I choose to live authentically.
I chose to live authentically. Because living in my truth will make me happy. I will be free. See as a Gemini- we love our freedom. We love our liberation.
Recently, I have put in my two weeks at my job. I have quit a 3-year law job in order to focus and grow in my Sex/ Intimacy Coach path.
To some people reading this, this may sound crazy, it may seem insane to leave the comfort of job to be a full-time entrepreneur.
I got to a point in my path recently where it was the crossroads.
"You either stick to what you have been doing up to this point or you pivot."
I chose to pivot.
I think in life, if we are not used to standing up for what we believe in and want, change can seem so scary. Speaking your truth can be daunting if you are not used to doing so.
But I emphasize with you Kittens, that if you have the choice right now, would you rather live as you have been the past weeks, month, years etc. (if you are happy and satisfied maybe this question isn't for you) or you are going to go after what will make you happy and fulfilled if you have not? Would you continue being a comfortable miserable or take the path of authentic happiness?
I never said on here you should pay safe. You should be willing to take risks and do what you feel is best for you. Irrespective to other's opinions, they should never dictate your life or how you view yourself. At the end of the day, this is your shit, and no one else is going to live it. So, you might as well do what makes you happy.
I chose to pivot and go on the path with least resistance, because that will make me happy. Believing that I am successful, and this will work out, is a choice that feels good to me and feels more aligned, rather than being in places where I am miserable, but society has taught us is the " safer " route.
Again, would you rather play things safe because you feel living x way is the only way to live, that your dreams can't come true, that it's impossible to be genuinely happy in life?
I find even if something seems scary because it's something new, it doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. It doesn't mean to cower behind excuses on why something won't work if you haven't even tried it yet. And we can have people argue and go back and forth about this- but I am sure if you're reading this, then you understand what I am saying. That sometimes you really have to make that choice between a comfortable lie or an uncomfortable truth (what you have been avoiding) that can set you free. We have to be real with ourselves about what we desire and if we believe it's ours or not.
What you desire in life was put in you for a reason. By God, Oludamare, The Universe, etc etc it can be whatever you call it, but it's all the same concept. You are not given the desire of something just to feel like you'll spend your whole life yearning for it. God isn't edging your sanity like " Whoops haha nevermind you can't have it !" (I will make a post about this soon) That's silly to think you are loved by a higher power just to be told you can't have what you want!
I say all this just to drive the point that I want you to truly evaluate where you are in life at this moment. We're already in July, we're actually a bit past the midpoint of the year. Are you waking up every morning knowing that you are living your best life? Your most pleasurable life?
Ask yourself these questions : How do I feel about my life now? Is there something that I have been avoiding regarding a choice, partner, friend, job, health , etc etc? And what is one thing I can do today to align with the version of me who is living their most pleasurable life?
I would love to see your answers in the comments down below or you can dm me @prettysub_llc on Instagram!
I know when I speak and live in my truth, that's a reminder that I am free to live the life I want, and it can be the same for you.
I hope this was a lovely read for you all, can't wait to meet again!
