Follow your joy

This funny old time is teaching me so much. I say teaching, but it’s more like reminding me. Highlighting stuff that I knew in my head, but now I know it in my bones.

I know deep down it’s possible for me to live life on my own terms, build a business by being myself, have fun and get paid. It’s still an ongoing process to allow myself to experience that and enjoy it. To allow myself to let go of those sneaky old beliefs that life and work has to be hard to be meaningful.

The more I let go of those fixed ideas about how things should be, the lighter I become, the more myself I become, the more creative I become, the more playful I become, the more joy I experience. When I’m being this way, it all flows and I get shit done.

This week I’m focusing my energy right here.

Following my joy.

Noticing when I’m getting pulled away from myself by the outside world, and my old boring stories.

So if you’re looking for me this week, you’ll find me dancing with my dog to a Glitterbox playlist, stomping in the mud and swooning at the trees, on my yoga mat, or watching Strictly! Because this one precious beautiful life I’ve been given is a bloody miracle and I’m going to do my best to not hand it over to my small talk stories that tell me that to be a grown up, responsible person I must sacrifice my joy.

I invite you to do the same. Are you with me?
