What does it mean to be untethered?
Manage episode 392340903 series 2928023
What exactly does it mean to be "untethered" and why is it something you might consider doing?
I was called to title this podcast using this word after a conversation with a mentor, who had helped me to see that it was invisible tethers that had kept (and were keeping) me from fully living my most authentic life. I was holding myself back from fully stepping into all the magic of life, because of these little worries and fears about not meeting the expectations of my family, not meeting the expectations of society, of my gender.
In short, I was worried as hell about what others thought of me. And I'm not alone. After conversation after conversation on this podcast, I hear a similar theme. It's my goal to help myself and others to intentionally untether ourselves from societal, relational, and cultural expectations and rediscover our true authenticity.
In this episode, I share one such incident - a story about how I my Christmas this year, and all the ways my tethers tried to get in the way of having the most magical experience.
Through personal tales of growth and community support, I invite you to embrace your unique brilliance. We'll explore how breathwork and affirmations can be transformative, and I'll remind you that your natural gifts are exactly what the world needs. So join me in celebrating the magic within us all, and find solace in the understanding that we're surrounded by those who believe in our potential, even when we're learning to believe in it ourselves.
Ready to untether? It's time to unleash the brilliant unicorn you were both to be! See how you can work with me at JenLiss.com.
