Hi! Just hopping on to do my homework. I have been listening to some of the

2
00:00:10.360 --> 00:00:15.380
replays from the previous sessions, the previous intensives. I watched the one

3
00:00:15.380 --> 00:00:23.640
today that Ashley reposted from 2020 and I recall her saying that the sooner we

4
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:27.800
become authentic and vulnerable about where we're at, the sooner we can find

5
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:36.400
healing and freedom. So, here we go. Things have felt super overwhelming

6
00:00:36.400 --> 00:00:44.920
within the last week. Specifically, I think I've mentioned briefly, I have a

7
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:55.680
pretty full schedule with my job that requires a lot of travel and

8
00:00:55.680 --> 00:01:02.400
simultaneously I've been battling some pretty intense health problems for

9
00:01:02.400 --> 00:01:05.280
quite some time, but it seems that they've just progressively gotten worse

10
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:13.600
and I've worked in health care for over 15 years, so I have a very strong

11
00:01:13.600 --> 00:01:18.520
opinion about medical interventions and all those things and I know that the

12
00:01:18.520 --> 00:01:23.880
stress and the unrest and the fear and anxiety is at the root of all of it, I'm

13
00:01:23.880 --> 00:01:30.880
convinced, but when I'm experiencing anxiety it's, you know, sometimes you go

14
00:01:30.880 --> 00:01:35.000
through all the motions but yet it still stays and I'm like, how do I make

15
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:41.280
this stop and go away? So, I think my greatest challenge or question that I've

16
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:48.600
been asking within the last month even is, is it possible for me to walk this

17
00:01:48.600 --> 00:01:55.840
out? I know that rest is not stagnance or like not, that doesn't mean that I'm

18
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:00.440
not moving forward and, you know, that I'm just laying on the couch, but I've been

19
00:02:00.440 --> 00:02:04.360
questioning for a while, like, is it possible for me to walk this out and get

20
00:02:04.360 --> 00:02:11.280
breakthrough in this area while working this job or is it going to require me to

21
00:02:11.320 --> 00:02:19.400
find another position in the interim while I'm walking this out? So often I

22
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:24.960
feel like I'm trying to, you know, just apply all of the things and, but just due

23
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:29.240
to the pace and the demands, I just can't seem to get on top of it, I can't seem to

24
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:32.840
get a handle on it and I don't know what it's going to take, but I know that it's

25
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:38.200
a priority of mine, so whatever, whatever we need to do to get there, I'm willing

26
00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:46.360
to do. I guess it feels overwhelming to make big decisions right now. I think I

27
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:50.720
started just today, I'm like, okay, what can I do today? I can ask my boss if I

28
00:02:50.720 --> 00:02:59.600
can work from home while I'm not traveling and so, yeah, I guess I've just

29
00:02:59.600 --> 00:03:04.360
been taking one day at a time, but I'm looking forward to my one-on-one and for

30
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:11.680
Ashley to kind of speak into that, but yeah, I don't really have much else to

31
00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:16.360
say. It's been, it's been a challenging week for sure, but super grateful to be

32
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:22.840
walking this out with you gals and to be learning together. So I'm excited for

33
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:28.120
tonight's class and I'll see you soon. Okay, bye!
