Listen "Focus: When Reality Snaps Into View"
Episode Synopsis
This is day two of my series on the six stages of acceptance. Stage two is when reality snaps into focus, like a gut punch. Whether it's a medical diagnosis, a red flag you’re ignoring, or someone saying what you’ve been too afraid to admit to yourself, there's usually moment in time when denial evaporates and truth is staring your square in the face. You can’t unknow the truth once you’ve learned it. Choosing curiosity over catastrophe can get interrupted by our wicked feelings that never seem to give us a break. And this is why we invite someone into our truth. Tell one trusted person what is actually happening. You don’t need a plan. You need someone to witness your reality. I need someone else to ground me before the emotional storm that follows. Because when the truth finally lands, what you do next determines whether it breaks you or builds you.Stay tuned tomorrow for stage 3: Friction.Fine > Focus > Friction > Framework > Flex > FlowListen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and YouTube.
