I Remember You, but I Don’t Miss You

“When pleasant memories from our past resurface, we often forget what it was about the connection that caused the disconnection.” — Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

Press play to listen to today’s podcast. FYI I cuss so wait ’til the kids and elders aren’t around. Blessings!

Sometimes we find ourselves in cycles with people. We connect, it’s awesome, something happens, we disconnect, time passes, we miss them or they reach out, we reconnect, and the cycle repeats.

I’ve done it too many times. I’ve even initiated the cycle…. plenty of times. I missed them. I reached out. And it was good… until it wasn’t. I’m so done with that cycle. If it’s over, I’m letting it stay that way.

I had to teach myself that there’s a difference between missing someone, and remembering them. To me, “I miss you,” means I want you back in my life. So, now, when I catch myself reminiscing, and that affirmation, “I miss him/her/them,” comes up, I correct myself. No, “I remember them.”

I might wish that the good aspects of who they are, or what we shared, could be back in my life, but the reality is that they don’t show up with just the good. All of it’s part of them. They’re not cutting off a part of themselves, or their personality, or their tendencies. We’re getting all of it. And if I don’t want all of it, I don’t want none of it. Stay over there.

Today’s podcast episode is one that’s been in the works for a while…. The message has been in my mind for some time, but recent events gave me the missing piece to really drive this concept home.

It’s a good one. If you’ve never listened, or even if you have before, this is a good time to check out my podcast. Summer is coming, the weather is changing, and the chance of running into people from the past is increasing.

If you have a tendency to rerun relationships, this one’s for you. And if you have a friend/family/co-worker who tends to do this, share it with them. I think it can help.

Blessings!

The Peace of Imperfection

As someone who could never get it right enough to garner praise in childhood, it’s no wonder that I became a bit of a perfectionist. I did all I could, including lived a double life, so that I could gain all that good girl praise.

Press play to listen to today’s podcast. FYI I cuss so wait ’til the kids and elders aren’t around. Blessings!

Welp. I had a good run. It’s way too exhausting and I’m over it. Attempting to be perfect when the whole world knows that no one is perfect, including you, is such a losing game.

Today, I gave myself permission to just be. I had things to do and I gave myself permission to not do them. I share a story on the podcast of the mortifying day that I accidentally posted myself being less than perfect. And I’m so grateful for releasing that ridiculous standard.

Perfectionism is one of the most draining and unfulfilling experience of life. I did it for so long. And now I am entering the season of IDGAF. And I couldn’t be more grateful.

It is a HUGE RELIEF to let that go and I’m excited about the freedom my life is becoming as I release B.A.E.’s (beliefs, affirmations, and expectations) that don’t serve me.

This has been such a wonderful month of growth! And in a few days, I’ll be celebrating my 1 year anniversary of daily podcasting here on Share & Let’s Live!!!!

Children’s Stories: Healing Your Inner Child

So I don’t know what possessed me to do this…. I decided to do some inner child work on the podcast!

Press play to listen to today’s podcast. FYI I cuss so wait ’til the kids and elders aren’t around. Blessings!

I figured the best way to explain it was to show you by using my own stuff…. so…..

On today’s podcast, I share how the stories that we told ourselves as children turn into our adult B.A.E.’s (Beliefs, Affirmations, and Expectations). I use my own personal experience… a current B.A.E. that I need to shift to bring new experiences into my life.

I show you why inner child work is valuable and then I break it down and walk through the part of the process to give you a really great intro to how do your own inner child work. Honestly, with what I shared, you can start your own inner healing. So check it out. (And don’t tell the person I talked about on the podcast. lmao)

Blessings!

I Could Care Less

Day 24 “I Could Care Less” #ONYOURMIND Share and Let’s Live! #Podcast Series w/ Marlene Dillon Empowerment Specialist

I don’t know if it’s my age or just the season I’m in, but I am really beginning to give less f*cks by the day.

Press play to listen to today’s podcast. FYI I cuss so wait ’til the kids and elders aren’t around. Blessings!

Of course, some things are really important to me. If it concerns my child, it matters to me. If it impacts those I love, what I’m passionate about, my wellbeing, my business, etc… yeah, that stuff is important.

You know what’s not important anymore? What people think about me. It’s like it left me overnight. I swear just months ago… even weeks ago…. I cared, and I cared a lot. But something shifted and I stopped caring.

I know the grammar rodeo probably will want me to change my title, assuming I made a mistake with the phrase. But the truth is, I want to care even less. There are still dregs of caring in me, and I want them fully dissolved.

I’ve spent most of my life caring too much about what others think, what others want, what others feel, and not at all about what I think, want, and feel. And I’m over that.

On today’s episode, I talk about this. I talk about my view of shadow work and the value I see in it….

If you’re in the space between people pleasing and being over it, this podcast episode is for you. Let’s care less.

Check it out and if it blesses you, please share. 🥰
