Turning inside out
Something big is happening. I can feel it. Something fundamental has changed this year. It’s like a chrysalis of my life is cracking and a butterfly is about to come out. That’s how big it feels.
I have learned so much in the last six months or so. First there was the realisation that I had been identifying exclusively with the hurt and scared child part of myself, which made it impossible to acknowledge and own everything that I have achieved as an adult. When I realised that, I stopped feeling like a fraud and started to feel like a competent person who can, and does, make a difference in the world. That was one of the biggest light bulb moments of my life.
