I still have a lot to learn about mindfulness.

At yesterday's Woo Woo Walk, I was telling another person about how I quit corporate America to start a self-love coaching business, and his response was:

"That's very courageous!"

Ever since the moment I submitted my resignation, I've been spending a lot of time being frantic about the future and hustling for my new business or angry at the past and how traumatizing corporate America was that I haven't taken the time to be proud of myself for the courage that it took to walk away from financial stability in the name of self-respect and self-trust.

And because my heart was wide-open and ready to receive, my response to him was:

"Thank you."

In the past, I would have deflected because I wouldn't have felt deserving of a compliment, but damn it, I earned it, so I was happy to accept.

These pictures may not be as exciting as bungee jumping, skydiving, or jumping out of a helicopter, but they represent the exact same courageous energy of feeling the fear and doing it anyway.

In what ways can you be more mindful and proud of yourself today? ☀️
