Day 13 "I Am Following My Bliss-Part2" #IMAYBE Share & Let's Live! #Podcast Series w Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

Taking the pressure off and posting part 2 now (which is technically a full podcast episode) since Part 1 needs so much editing and my evening is going differently than I desired. 

Great episode about the cool things I did, and saw, today and the great lessons I picked up along the way.

Have an amazing whatever time of day it is for you.

Blessings!

Day 20 "Thank " #IMAYBE Share and Let's Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

On social media the title of this podcast is, "Don't Listen to My Podcast." 

Why on earth would I tell people don't listen to my podcast? Well, I mean, I would love for everybody to listen. But the reality is that everybody isn't my target. Everybody isn't aligned with my topics. Not everybody can handle my free spirit and cussing. Even my Dad was going to check it out, but I told him don't. 😆

I create for the people who are calling in what I create. I am sharing for those meant to find value in the words I share. I am podcasting daily for you, who may hear my podcast the same day, or in a week, a month, or even a year from now on the exact day, at the exact time that it's relevant for you. I do this for you. It's not about me. I enjoy creating so yeah that part's about me. But I created it for you. I'm talking to you, when I grab the mic. I'm trusting my words will reach you.

So, thank you for being here. Thank you for sending out the desire for this work so I get to create it. Thank you for helping me find my voice by giving me a reason to speak.

So....  today's podcast is about realizing that I don't want people to listen because they feel they're doing me a favor. I want people to listen for them and to gain value from what I create and share. A major shift has happened for me where I feel really aligned with knowing the value of what I offer and not needing the numbers to feel valid. 

I want listeners who are here because you feel like being here, not because you feel bad that you haven't checked out my podcast before. So feel free to listen (to this one or any other's you feel called to), or not. 😆 It's all up to you. 

Blessings!

Day 22 "Blame Can Be Useful" #IMAYBE Share & Let's Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

In our society, it's often viewed as irresponsible, petty, and immature to place blame outside of ourselves. Today, I acknowledged that blame is an important step toward inner healing. 

A lot of people feel it's necessary to have a conversation with a person who has wronged them and hear the individual admit to, and apology for, their wrongs. I personally don't feel this is necessary (although it can be helpful and affirming). 

When I say that blame can be an important step, I mean that acknowledging where the problem started is important. Telling the person who did it that they are wrong and blah blah blah is not as important. We don't have to ever tell them AND I believe it's necessary that we tell ourselves. 

Far too often those who have been hurt continue to hurt themselves by placing the blame on their own shoulders. "If I had been smarter...." "If I wasn't at that place at that time...." "If I had just listened more and followed directions, they wouldn't have...." We have an endless flow of what ifs that place the blame on us, when in many situations, those details do not change the fact that someone did something toward us that they shouldn't have. 

People who have been victimized, abused, or otherwise mistreated, tend to be self-critical. On today's episode of Share and Let's Live! I talk about how this practice hinders healing. 

If someone threw me in a pit and is now looking down on me telling me I'm a loser for being in a pit, I shouldn't be joining in with them thinking, "They're right. Look at me in this pit. I'm a loser." That doesn't even make sense. But an adult that struggles with insecurities due to what they don't have, or have yet to become, will wallow in that state feeling bad about themselves without ever thinking, "I wonder where my self-esteem issues started." 

If they took the time to ponder this, they may come to realize that the reason they aren't ahead of the game is because they had an extremely critical and verbally abusive adult in their home environment that tore down their confidence. That same critical adult still criticizes them to this day. So the same person who caused their issues, is looking down on them complaining about their issues. 

It's in acknowledging the absurdity of this—and in naming the real cause—that they are able to truly begin to move forward. It's really hard to pull yourself up when you're weighed down by self-criticism and #blame.

"You can have the hard way. I'm choosing the easy route." — Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

Day 24 "I Am Choosing the Easy Route" #IMAYBE Share & Let's Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

Unpopular belief: hard work is overrated and tapping into guidance is not cheating. Some of us refuse to use the tools, practices, and spiritual "gifts" we have, because we feel like if we didn't work hard for it, we have an unfair advantage.... 

Well, I'm tired of struggling, when I know better. I know that I can sit down for 15 minutes and meditate and have the most beautifully aligned, showed up at 100% in all the roles in my life, not even tired when evening hits... type of day. I've done it so many times! But instead of doing that consistently, I spend every day worried about everything under the sun, rather than just go internal for a minute and get clear on my next steps.

Why do I do that? Because our society teaches us that if you didn't work hard for it, you're cheating the system. If you you get help, that's unfair to those who are on their grind. We're taught that "nothing good comes easy." "No pain, no gain." It's only of value if it comes through "blood, sweat, and tears." 

Dafuq? 

Yeah, no. I'm over that. I've struggled enough. I've fought enough. I've tried the hard way long enough.... 

Maybe sitting still to get clarity is annoying because I am trained to "get up and go." However, I know that sitting still for those 15 minutes, can give me everything I need to have THE MOST productive, successful, fun, amazing day! I can proudly grab my "cheat sheet" at the start of my day and get so much more accomplished than I would "hitting the ground running." 

I'm over being in angst, frustrated, and just getting an eighth of my tasks done.... only being great at one or two of my roles in any given day. 

I want to enjoy my life. I want to have more successes. I want to feel aligned throughout my day. I'm over trying to keep up with what society says, and what this business coach says, and what that influencer says. I'm going to make a commitment to getting MY personalized instructions for my day, and to check back in throughout the day. I'm done going it alone. It's too uphill and exhausting. I'm prioritizing connecting with my inner knowing and so I can move forward with ease. 

I'm done struggling for the good life. That finish line keeps gettin farther away. I'm gonna let it flow in with ease by following higher guidance. 

I'm going to meditate and seek higher guidance. I don't care, if that's "not the way it's done." That sh*t works! Every. Single. Time. 


Blessings!

Day 25 "Hangriness & the Law of Attraction" #IMAYBE Share & Let's Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

Day 27 "Right Now I'm Good" #IMAYBE Share & Let's Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

When I stay in today, I can see how much I have to be grateful for. When I try to figure out how things will work down the road, I'm anxious, because I don't have the answers. 

Today, I realized that the best thing I can do for myself is to try my best to remain focused on what matters right now in this moment. I used to feel that "serving two masters" was about religious choices. However today, I got to see another way of viewing it. 

As I stressed myself out earlier trying to address tomorrow's problems with today's resources, I saw that I was attempting something impossible. Today, I got a new outlook... as I was serving two masters by attempting to be in two places at once. 

I was living in today, with the resources needed for today. And rather than be grateful that I had what I needed for today, I was stressed out trying to figure how to get today's resources to solve next month's problems. When I let that go, and accepted that next month will take care of itself, I realized I had so much to be grateful for. I had more than enough for today's needs. 

Today was an eye-opening episode. To hear the full story and the lessons I gained, check out today's podcast!

Day 28 "Our Thoughts and Moodiness" #IMAYBE Share & Let's Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

So a few days ago, I shared a post about an anti bucket list... to make a list of things we need to stop doing. Well, this morning, I woke up and listened to this Abraham-Hicks recording I felt guided to check out. From that I decided that in order for me to get better at being happy and remaining that way, it will be helpful to develop a list of things I do that make me stop being happy. 

Oddly, I got to see one right out the gate. It's a funny thing that happens when we decide to become aware of our tendencies that don't serve us. We get answers and sometimes quicker than we anticipate.

Day 30 "I Am the ONE" #IMAYBE Share & Let's Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

When you've spent most of your existence trying to fit in... and failing at it... Then you have a moment of awakening in therapy and in conversations with a friend and in your quiet time with yourself and Source... ALL IN THE SAME WEEK.... 

I just went from wanting to be one of y'all to recognizing I AM THE ONE. I don't need to fit. I don't need approval. I don't need to make myself small. I don't need to hide. I don't need to act less qualified. I don't need to worry about your opinion. I don't need to feel you know more than my inner knowing....

I've got a purpose. I've got things to share. I've got work to do. And I'm acknowledging that I'm the one to do it. 

Next month's podcast series is called..... (drumroll please)... #IAMTHE1 (I Am the One!). I'm super excited about. Today's podcast is all about it and the journey to here. 

Special thank you to my friend Flower for the words she spoke into me this week that helped me bridge a gap and find my place. Choosing who you associate with matters. 

Anyway, check out today's podcast. It's empowering and I think you may get something for yourself from my story of my journey. Love ya! Blessings! Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist
