GM nostr 💜

just a few years ago, i wouldve needed an hour to recover just from someone putting this plate in front of me.

since a fishing-trip-gone-wrong when i was young, i’ve dealt with a sort of ptsd around Anything from the ocean. sweating profusely, shaking in fear, vomiting because of the nerves. it seriously cut off half of what was possible for my tastebuds.

when i formed my business, i recognized the weight of the word “limitless” in a whole new way.

sure, the research says we can change our programming, but what does it really mean to do that?

i challenged myself to find out. again and again and again.

for this irrational fear, it started with a pet fish. then friend-filled-dinners where i had support in sitting at a table with fish on it. then going to seafood restaurants- even if all i could handle that day was a nice dessert for dinner.

embarrassing as it has been over the years of breaking thru, i persevered. i sweat in the restaurants, i cried in the kitchen, i vomited in the garbage can (thankfully 😅)

i recognized that we are all afraid of some things. i recognized the way people ridiculed your weaknesses comes from a reflection of their own. and i decided to be someone deeply unafraid in this world.

unafraid of making a fool of myself.

because in this case, making a fool of myself was on the path to this little freedom. to this new world of cuisine.

i encourage you to recognize your fears and reorganize your priorities.

sure, suffering is part of the human condition- but do you recognize all of the fears causing you more suffering? do you continue to choose those fears over those paths to freedom?

have you asked yourself, why? or, whether it’s worth it?

i hope you take this silly little story of mine and find more freedom in your own life. truly, i pray we all find the trust in ourselves, god, universal flow, to make evolution happen.

it’s not pretty, it’s not easy. it’s worth it. 🧚🏼‍♀️
