Manage episode 397095467 series 1273114
Feeling stuck and ready to become who you knew you were always meant to be? When I met my friend Tracy Litt, it was clear this woman knows and fully embraces everything she is and is meant to be. She is inspiring, refreshing, and remarkable.
Tracy Litt is a spiritual leader, CEO, founder of the School of Becoming and the bestselling author of Worthy Human: Because You Are The Problem and The Solution.
In this episode, we are having a much needed conversation about the path smart brilliant women must take to becoming the amazing successful person they are meant to be.
Let’s get started!
Path to Unlocking Potential and Embodying Abundance
Tracy Litt’s journey to becoming an ‘expander’ is like a high-octane movie, full of guts, glory and a whole lot of spirit. She’s our real-life superhero who decided she was done playing small and ready to unlock her potential. She shares the story of creating her kickass school for women bosses and entrepreneurs, which she named the School of Becoming.
After hustling hard and reaching goals, Tracy decided it was time to pop some champagne and have a lavish gala. Because hey, who said hard work can’t be celebrated in style?
As she looked back at the glitzy gala, she realized that it was more than just a party. It was a moment where she allowed her inner guide to take the lead, opening up new paths and possibilities. She went from being someone who, a decade ago, might have let fear slow her down, to a woman who now fully embraces her limitless potential for greatness.
Tracy shared, “Because I am a living example of the becoming process, I’ve learned how to be an expander for myself through the choices I make. You’re surrounded by abundance. And the only time you don’t feel it is when you put limitations on yourself.” Now, isn’t that a powerful nudge to step into our higher selves, unlock our potential, and embrace the fullness of life? I think so.
How Not Being Your Best Self Leads to Growth
Imagine this: Tracy wakes up the day after the gala, coffee in hand, ready to bask in the social media love from her party. But alas, instead of fun party pics and sweet messages, she’s hit with a wave of emails and posts accusing her of stealing the word ‘becoming.’ Talk about a downer!
Tracy’s no newbie. She’s a seasoned CEO who knows her stuff, especially when it comes to intellectual property. She was sure she hadn’t stepped on any toes. Still, this unexpected backlash rattled her a bit.
Tracy said, “We can’t just ignore any emotion on our emotional spectrum. If we do, we clog up our nervous system and mess with our ability to vibrate at our highest frequency.” This is a big YES to emotional honesty and fully feeling our feelings so we can move past challenges and keep growing.
So, instead of brushing off her feelings, Tracy let them all out. She pounded the floor, she shook her body, she cried. She gave herself the green light to feel everything, knowing that suppressing any emotion would only jam up her nervous system and mess with her ability to function at her best.
Shifting Misconceptions: The Role of Emotions in Personal Growth Mindset
Ever feel like the whole “good vibes only” mantra is disingenuous at best, and potentially harmful at worst? Tracy sure thinks it might be. There’s this idea floating around that we can reach our highest frequency without changing our relationship to our emotions. But Tracy calls B.S. on that.
She says if we’re not fully feeling all the emotions our bodies want to express, we’re living in a fake ‘high vibe.’ This leads to what she calls ‘high vibe bypass,’ where folks dodge the hard stuff to keep up the good vibes. But in doing so, they’re squashing their full emotional range, limiting their self-expression, and possibly setting themselves up for depression. Yikes! This shines a light on why we need personal growth ideas that champion emotional honesty.
“If you’re ducking out on the embarrassment, discomfort, or pain, then you’re also going to miss out on the bliss, radiance, and celebration,” Tracy points out.
So, what’s the fast track to reaching a potent frequency, according to Tracy? It’s all about transforming our understanding of emotion, letting go of judgment, and giving ourselves permission to feel all our emotions, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Now, that’s a recipe for a successful personal growth journey if I’ve ever heard one.
Redefining Success: Personal Growth for Business Success Through Emotional Integration
Tracy and I got down to the nitty-gritty of how we’ve been taught to think about “success.” Tracy says we’ve been tricked into thinking that success means never feeling uncomfortable or down. But she’s calling foul on that idea.
She believes that genuine success, especially when it comes to growing personally for business success, means being able to feel and integrate all experiences – even the ones that aren’t exactly fun.
This means we have to embrace our messy, beautiful human selves and keep experiencing things we’d rather dodge. This is super important for leaders on a personal growth journey. Tracy reminds us that growth, expansion, and ‘becoming’ are not final destinations but ongoing journeys. And depending on what you believe, this journey either continues after we leave our physical bodies or it doesn’t.
She also talks about the importance of feeling all our feelings and moving away from the outdated idea of labeling emotions as good or bad, right or wrong. Emotions, according to her, are just energy in motion. And getting that is a game-changer for personal growth.
From Recognition to Transformation: How to Become Your Best Self
According to Tracy, becoming is all about stepping into the next version of ourselves – or as she puts it, aiming to ‘be the person you want to become.’ It’s a constant process, always in the ‘ING,’ as she cleverly says. As we evolve, it’s time to take a hard look at our worldviews, belief structures, and the consciousness level we’re operating on. It’s all about getting to grips with our thoughts and beliefs about energy. Sure, we nod along when someone says we’re beings of energy, but if we really got that, we’d treat ourselves differently. This process goes on forever, marking our personal evolution.
When Tracy talks about balancing unconditional self-love and self-acceptance with becoming, she’s clear that the road to ‘becoming your best self’ is paved with higher awareness and consciousness. She drives home the point that we’re not broken and don’t need fixing. We’re naturally whole and worthy, just like the title of her new book suggests. Accepting ourselves as we are is the foundation for any healing work. When we work on ourselves, it’s not because we’re a problem that needs fixing, but to break free from limiting perspectives.
Overcoming Control, Expectation, and Judgment: A Crucial Step in Personal and Leadership Development
Tracy and I ended up talking about control, expectation, and judgment – or as she calls them, ‘life suckers.’ Tracy believes that these three are all tangled up together and often show a narrow view of life, typical of the third dimension of consciousness. They’re a sign that we’re not tapping into the potential of higher levels of consciousness, which is super important for personal growth in business.
These three often interact in a destructive cycle that can be tough to break free from. ...
