the power of giving yourself permission to change your mind

the power of giving yourself permission to change your mind

Thais Sky

What I have come to understand is that giving myself permission to change my mind is not about being non-committed or not following through, it's about knowing when to let go. It's about trusting that a better paragraph will form only when you totally delete what you wrote and sit with a blank slate. It's about believing that only when surrender how you think it should be will you be able to open up to what is.

And yet, I know so many people, myself included, who clasp onto relationships, to a vision of their life, to an expectation, way past their expiry date. Why?

I’ve been talking a lot about the worthiness wound lately and while I have received so much positive feedback from women resonating with this information, I have also heard some quiet whisperings from women who feel a tremendous amount of guilt and shame for both having the worthiness wound and for recognizing the damage the unchecked worthiness wound has done in their lives. In some cases there is also an additional hint of embarrassment, a fear of what their friends and family will think of them if they find out they’ve been reading about the worthiness wound.

One of the biggest desires my clients come to me with is the desire to change their relationship with money. They feel like they don’t trust themselves around money. They feel unable to save money or bring more money in. They feel unworthy to spend money on themselves or on something they really wa

The worthiness wound, a belief at the core of our being that we do not belong and that we are inadequate and broken, often leaves an intense scar of unresolved pain in our psyche and in our bodies. This pain can be debilitating, and if gone unaddressed can affect various areas of our lives and cause harm to ourselves and those around us.

And being overwhelmed with emotions, particularly around beliefs that we sense are outdated, is to put plainly, exhausting. While the appearance of such beliefs are of no surprise {as you pursue the path of growth, all sorts of internalized beliefs that teach you to play safe get activated}, it’s the emotions that accompany the beliefs can seem the most debilitating, especially as empaths... often leading us to emotionally shut down, become extremely reactive and erratic, hurt others, and hurt ourselves. Here's what we can do about it.

I used to think that worthiness was something people just “got” at some point in their lives. You know, once one makes the million billion dollars and crosses off the important things from one’s bucket list. Then, almost miraculously, one will feel worthy and live happily ever after. Turns out, that wasn't the case.

The energy around this time of year is almost palpable; it screams of exciting new goals, renewed hope, and big visions.

But this energy also comes with a darker side.

Few of us are immune to the pressures of the “new year new you” promise, a tantalizing offer from our culture that this year could be the year that you FINALLY become who you’ve always wanted to be. And when you do, you will be able to breathe and feel happy and fulfilled.

But beneath the flash and glitter is the real message.

I remember like it was just yesterday, being 12 years old, walking home from the bus stop, trying to nonchalantly power walk my way down the street while my three neighbors meandered behind me loudly making fun of what I was wearing and who I was.

I would burst through the door to my house with tears streaming down my face, heart wrenched with shame.

In all those years though, I never spoke up. I never stood up for myself. I just let them bully me, slap me, tease me, and embarrass me in front of friends, adults, strangers.

It is undeniable - vulnerability goes hand in hand with being seen.

The vulnerability of telling someone you care deeply for them, opening your big feelings to a stranger, asking for a raise, writing a book, launching a program… it often comes with an overwhelming desire to stop, to close your mouth, to wait a month, or two or three, to never do it again, to go numb, to shut down.

The weight that being vulnerable has can be crushing.

Lately I have been playing with navigating the spaces of non-doing. Not hustling. Not goal-setting or goal-doing. Not pushing or forcing, just… flowing.

It's unfamiliar territory. Here's what I am discovering.

The other week I shared a post on Facebook about showing up consistently. Today, I want to dive more into this concept of what it means to really show up and own your spotlight.

So here is the post that I shared: “I see a lot of self-judgment from women for not being able to "show up consistently" every single day.

A little while ago, I stumbled upon an old journal from high school, and as I flipped through the pages, I found a list I had created titled “5 things I need to change in order for people to like me.” The list included: put more effort into my appearance, appear less passionate and emotional, care less about people’s opinions {oh the irony}, no lunches in the library {said by a true introvert} and item #1: be more reserved.

Greetings! I shared this uncomfortable truth on Facebook last week and felt called to share it again, here, in case it may support you on your journey:

Two years ago almost today, I quit my job, drove across the country, moved in with my partner, and went full-time into my business after four years of dancing with the idea.

In those moments when the judging thoughts feel the loudest, judging others for their behavior but also judging ourselves for ours, it's easy to collapse into a heap of shame and the sense that we are deeply broken.

In the following video, I want to share a critical tool we can begin to incorporate during those tricky, triggered moments to give us a bit of a lifeline. A little ease and space to center ourselves and recalibrate.

I have been sitting lately with the concept of sovereignty and what it means to feel free and autonomous in our lives, our decisions, and thoughts. 

In the video here I share some key concepts on worthiness as it ties to the lower self, the higher self, and the three masks we tend to wear.

Two weeks I shared a new concept with you all that I am calling The Worthiness Wound. 

And then I disappeared into a hole of research, analysis and model creation.

I want to share the updates with you, including my conclusions around why women feel unworthy, why other forms of healing won't work around the worthiness wound and why worthiness will never be fully "healed."
