How to Feel Enough and Show Up When You Feel Like A Failure

"I'm not a good provider".

"I'll never feel loved"

"I'm a failure."

"I have no community"

It's difficult when life throws us into things that we are not good at or are new to like parenting, marriage, new jobs, new business...

And it's tempting to try and prove through action that we are enough and that we are lovable. How do we avoid that vicious cycle but also continue showing up in "the hard" of life without giving up?

In this episode we dive into how to practically work through those feelings and beliefs as well as how to show up with big capacity.

Enjoy!
