009: To Be Or Not To Be YOU - Soulfull Sound Coaching
In today’s Soulfull Sound Coaching episode, I talk about being authentic and it starts with being true to YOU.
The world is full of ideas, influences, information and countless ways to create the life and business of your dreams.
One of the things that I know through my many years of teaching and coaching is that people don’t ‘get you’ unless you ‘get yourself’. In the world of expressing your gifts through a business or cause, it’s hard sometimes to see through the fanfare and the circus of options around us, so we sometimes find ourselves buried beneath the status quo and anything we dare to explore outside of these walls is considered taboo.
Well it’s time to get real!
The hard part of getting real is being courageous enough to be different, to venture outside your comfort zone and to care less about that others think. Why am I telling you this?
Because to express yourself authentically you must first be real with yourself about what you want and be willing to not see things as ‘black and white’, but instead with vibrant colours shining with possibility.
Okay but let’s be honest, this can be a big ask for some right? Let me ask you this, would you be willing to step into greatness if you knew how and had help?
I know, I know, society has made us this way. We were taught that work and play are two separate things. Do any of these sound familiar? “Finish your homework, then you can go out to play. Be serious at work and then play on the weekends.”
This conditioning goes deep!
We had numerous messages from our influencers whether from parents, teachers, religious leaders and so on, about the order in which things were supposed to unfold. Something along the lines of ‘get your education, get a job, get married, buy a house, have kids’ – well boy did I get that ‘wrong’!
The thing is we need to stop blaming society now, because are society!
We need to take responsibility and change the cycle, so that we create a society that is more about expressing our authentic selves.Listen to full episode and learn how you can dare to be YOU!
