Who would you be if you loved all of yourself? 😍

Last week I had a client thank me for holding space for them to let out their “shitty side”.

They were feeling some jealousy and anger and grief.

They’d reacted to a tough situation in a way that felt old.

They were feeling shame and self judgment.

At the end of our call I thanked them for sharing so honestly and honored their feelings and experience. It was beautiful to witness the rawness of it, to see them letting it out.

Then she thanked me for holding the space so she could let her “shitty side” out.

Her shitty side!

I reminded her that we don’t have bright, sparkly sides to us without the darker, less desirable sides.

But that doesn’t make them shitty.

And it certainly doesn’t make us shitty.

We’re freaking human!

We hold polarities!

Dark and light!

Joy and grief!

Gratitude and rage!

Friends, this is your permission slip to love the “dark side” of yourself.

To love the parts of you that you judge or feel are “wrong”

You are a full ass human being.

You weren’t designed to be bright and shiny all of the time!

I love your rage.

Your grief.

Your jealousy.

Your envy.

Your sorrow.

Your despair.

I love the part of you that feels small and scared and vulnerable and broken.

The messy side of you.

I love those parts just as much, if not more, than the bright sparkly parts.

And today I invite you to do the same!

Who would you be if you loved these parts of yourself, too?

with love + solidarity,
Victoria

PS— this is just a taste of what happens inside of my coaching containers! We unpack questions like this together to disrupt limiting beliefs and brain drama, and I also offer similar prompts to support you between our calls.

Coaching isn’t advice giving or me telling you what you need or what to do. It’s about skill building, or capacity building as I call it. It’s about cultivating confidence from deep within, so that you can feel empowered and capable in your own decision making.
