overcomingfear

This is the year of me Leaning In.

Leaning into that which scares me, leaning into my fears and accepting them at face value, and having the courage to step outside of my comfort zones and into the unknown. Being scared, and doing it anyway. This year, so far has felt like a 3 years wrapped up into one: I am undergoing multiple major dental surgeries because of horrible teeth - it is extremely exhausting and painful. I had a major Ulcerative Colitis flare-up recently where I had to be hospitalized and put on some heavy duty steroids, while battling excruciating stomach pain.

I have had to quit smoking cigarettes - I have been a smoker for 16 years…

I have three more major dental surgeries to go through this year, coming up soon. I am anxious and tired and running on fumes.

But this is the time for me to face it and Lean In - to not let fear belittle me and strike me down. No matter how exhausted or depressed I am - I must Lean In. #MentalHealth #Depression #UlcerativeColitis #Anxiety #overcomingfear

Fear is an unpleasant yet helpful feeling. Fear lets us know what's important to us and what we need to face in order to grow.
