Often, women are told that they are too emotional or too sensitive. They’re told that they need to take a step back and calm down. But what if the exact opposite is true? What if those emotions and sensitivities are your greatest gift?

The truth is, many women have been taught to ignore their emotions—but they don’t have to. It’s time to learn how to embrace them and use them to become your best self.

Emotions are more than just feelings—they’re also information. When you feel an emotion, it’s because something in your life needs to change. Maybe it’s something as simple as making sure you’re getting enough sleep or taking care of yourself physically; maybe it’s something more complex like changing your mindset so that you can find your inner peace. Whatever the case may be, when you feel something strongly enough, it means there’s something within you trying to reach out and make itself known.

And once you learn how to listen for these messages from within yourself, everything changes from there on out! You’ll start noticing patterns in your life and making connections between different aspects of yourself that you hadn’t made before. You’ll find yourself feeling calmer

We all have limiting beliefs—they’re what make us human. It’s just the way we humans are wired. We have to believe in something, and sometimes that “something” is a belief that holds us back from our full potential.

Yes, even you. Even me.

The way to let go of these limiting beliefs is not to ignore them or pretend they don’t exist, but rather to face them head-on and embrace them as part of your life story. Take those beliefs and make something beautiful out of them: use them as a springboard for new understandings, or convert them into tools that help you achieve your goals in ways you never knew were possible before now.

This may sound difficult at first glance, but it’s actually quite simple: just take one small action every day toward achieving your goal (whatever it may be), and make sure that action is aligned with one of your limiting beliefs—that way, every time you take this action, it will reinforce both sides of the coin: on one side is your limiting belief; on the other side is progress toward your goal.*
