Here’s a really powerful coaching question to ask yourself today: How would you move through your day if it was all taken care of?
And secondly: Are you choosing obligation anyway? Are you making this about how hard you can make it to *prove* you deserve rest?
Really think about those two. Are you choosing obligation anyway. When no one but yourself is making you. Forcing you.
And what would change about your day-to-day rhythms – even so small as how long you’d linger over coffee – if it was all taken care of?
I want you to give yourself permission to choose ease.
Yes, you. Right now. Exactly where you are.
In the middle of your kids’ messes.
In the middle of that new baby, or launch for your business, or family drama that’s swallowing up all your emotions.
Choose. Ease. What does that mean, on a practical level, for you?
Does it mean super simplifying the menu plan, and just going with a bunch of Insta pot meals?
Does it mean giving yourself tons of extra movement and workout and journaling time and cutting way back on the non-essentials of your day?
Does it mean ignoring the bathroom floors and just playing with your kids so you feel like you’re being a good mom (because you’ve been so busy checking off that to-do list)?
What does “choosing ease” mean to you?
Go do that – because life’s not waiting.
Your kids aren’t waiting.
And your emotional well-being certainly isn’t, either.
Do what you need to do. Do what you’re *allowed* to do. Do what’s healing for you.
Don’t make it harder on purpose.
