126 | Part 2: Self-Experimenting: Embracing Duality and Fluidity in Personal Growth with Sarah Welch
Our part 1 conversation with Sarah Welch was INCREDIBLE, so we’re back with part 2 today!
If you haven't had the chance to check out part 1, pause now, and go give it a listen HERE.
In today’s part 2 episode, we talk more about self-experimenting, and the beauty of embracing duality and fluidity in personal growth. Sarah takes us even deeper into perfectionism, unpacking self-sabotage, and navigating the highs and lows of evolving into your most aligned self.
Sarah and I have both experienced the difficulties that come with letting go of identities that have long been ingrained into us. We’ve had to give ourselves the space (and permission) to expand and discover new parts of ourselves. Sooo much of this comes from putting ourselves into community and conversation with others who not only show us what’s possible, but allow us to finally feel safe, and like we’re ‘enough’. We are special ‘enough’, and we are important ‘enough’ - YOU are too, friend!
In this episode, we cover:
- Where our cycles of perfectionism stem from + realizing how complex the human experience really is
- The connection between self-sabotage & harm reduction + finding a ‘healthy’ hobby for yourself
- Realizing that more than 1 thing can be true at once + not everything is always ‘black or white’
- Letting go of identities that have been ingrained into us for so long + embracing more of the ‘child-like’ view of the world we used to have
- The beauty that comes when we give ourselves space to truly expand and discover new parts of ourselves
- Stepping out of your comfort zone and into conversations & community with others you’ve never been a part of, but know you need to be
- Taking yourself ‘seriously’ when it comes to taking action and following through with your goals
- Why it’s beautiful, safe, and productive to embrace ‘seasonality’ and cycles in life
