In a soul-honouring life, we look back to witness and celebrate our progress and to mine for wisdom.

We look forward to cast a vision, set goals, and reimagine who we are becoming.

But then, we must pull our hearts and minds back so we can live fully willing and present in each moment and each day. Even the super messy, deeply challenging, or pretty wonderful yet not perfect days.

In this episode, I share a recent example from my life when I did not get everything checked off my to-do list and fear and urgency crept in. Nothing was truly wrong in the moment, but if I believed the story that fear was spinning, my future was doomed;)

Thankfully, my Wise Self spoke up and gently offered the anxious part of me a different thought.

“This too is what it means to trust yourself and your seasonal rhythms. The rhythms and practices you build into your life are there to serve YOU. You are not subservient to them. And when consistency turns into rigidity, it is no longer serving you."

Life is messy. It has always been messy. But each messy day is a gift - and each imperfect day IS our real life.

And the quality of my life is not determined by perfect accounting. Or perfection of any kind. Never has been.
