#24 What keeps us stuck?

The Mothering Myself Podcast - A podcast by Susan Kinahan

This week we are tackling our 'stuckness' and the energy that holds us back from feeling like we are moving forward. What is it that holds us back? What is it that prevents us from taking the next necessary step? Why is it that we seem to be backsliding when we just experienced a breakthrough? Often, we overthink the above questions and we make excuses, cast blame, and refuse responsibility. In this episode we go a little deeper and consider what purpose feeling 'stuck' is serving us. As we dig into our experiences, and acknowledge the delight in clinging to an ideal self rather than accepting the self as we are right now, we begin to see our experience in its fullness. We touch on why regression is a natural and healthy component of our growth and we contemplate our stuckness as a protective experience. We trust there is guidance and wisdom in the moments that we feel held back, and we begin to move from our head into our hearts as we listen more deeply to our feelings guiding our experience of ourselves and our lives. If we are the creators of our lives, how do we create the life we want?
