Freedom

Painting "Freedom" by Alice Laverty

Hello, 2022!  Albeit the end of January, I would like to welcome you with open arms and declare 2022 my year of total freedom!

Freedom is defined as “the right to act, speak, or think without hindrance or restraint.”  In the United States, we frequently take these rights for granted. In comparison, other parts of the world are oppressive in their tolerance of freedom and persecute those who oppose totalitarian governments and leaders.  

Strangely, as Americans, we have the right to be free according to the definition of the word. Many of us will not give ourselves permission to execute this right.  Why?  Internal blocks are preventing us from acting, speaking, or thinking freely.  We have been conditioned from our childhood to conform.  We are taught that failure to conform in the best-case scenario could result in public embarrassment, and in the worst-case scenario, the results could be some sort of punishment.    

Over many years we write our confining script and develop fears of speaking our mind or acting as our authentic selves.  We develop debilitating gremlins, commonly known as our inner critic, and self-sabotage by continuing to listen to that voice.  It might be telling you that you are not good enough, not smart enough, not skinny enough, etc.  The list goes on and on.  

If we are fortunate, we come to a point when we recognize that the only thing holding us back from living our best lives is our gremlins. If we are bold enough, we start exploring what they have been whispering in our ears and questioning if what they are “saying” is indeed true.  

With the help of a professional coach, you can embark on a journey of achieving total freedom.  How do I know?  I have been on this journey for quite some time, and I credit my coaching training through iPEC in helping me face my own gremlins and re-write my script.  I am free!  I am free of fear, judgment, and past, and free to live my life as my authentic self!
