I used to avoid my body.
It always felt like a friend that lured me into a false sense of security and suddenly—without provocation—stabbed me in the back.
When I thought of her, I was taken back to painful memories.
Spending months in bed.
Missing out on my nephew’s baby shower.
Feeling crushed by the weight of anticipating the next setback.
I didn’t want to know her, and I certainly didn’t trust her.
How could I?
She always stopped me from doing what I wanted, when I wanted. And I resented her for that.
It took over a decade for that to change.
Instead of taking the word of medical professionals as the Bible on my body, I decided to get to know her personally.
Whatever I felt she (my body) needed, I provided.
For me, this was
extra supplements,
scheduling naps regularly, and
strategizing with my husband on splitting housework more equitably.
It allowed me to achieve consistency in my business.
Not because I felt 100% all of the time.
Because I now KNOW how to
work with my body—no matter where she’s at,
listen to her signals, and
adapt, as necessary to reach my short-term and long-term goals.
THIS is why I teach my clients how to build consistency in their business in a sustainable way that works for THEM.
