Fitting In My Piece
Dear Awesome Mental Mom Community,
If one were to ask me 20 years ago, what I envision myself to be doing…it wouldn’t be what I am currently in the process of. But, this journey is so much more incredible than what I could have ever imagined my life to be when I was so small minded. Yes, I am calling myself small minded! That little 19 year old me had no idea what life was going to hurl my way. This journey, that I have had the privilege to take, has brought me so much peace of mind, knowledge, and power. It hasn’t always been so pretty and empowering. In fact most of it has been down right painful and exhausting. However, I have learned so much about my health, my relationships, my own personal healing, my strength through painful growth, and most of all I have learned about myself. I have learned how I function in all aspects of the term, which I have come to find most individuals don’t even have a base knowledge as to how they function. (So forget about even getting to the optimal level!) I have come to an understanding with myself. I know my own boundaries; I know when to push; I know when to step back; I know why I feel lousy; I accept responsibility over my own actions, be it input, or lack there of. I understand me!
The most surprising aspect of this journey I am on, is acceptance of who I am to others. I have only recently become accepting of the idea that others turn to me for assistance on their health journey. I never envisioned myself to be a guide to others in similar struggles and battles. I have always been the individual that sat quietly, listened to others achievements, tuned into others advice and guidance, and became part of the background. I listened to lectures, podcasts, took classes, read books, attended webinars and seminars, joined group talks, and attended transformational events. I never wanted the “pressure” to be “exactly what they were hoping for” or to be “that moron that didn’t know what they were talking about”. Those were my thoughts that used to race through my head…how ridiculous! Accepting the fact that every individual contributes an important piece of the puzzle in life was a huge wake up call for me. I WAS A PIECE OF THAT PUZZLE! Duh!! These amazing a brilliant individuals that have helped me along my journey realized where their pieces fit. It’s time that I place my piece.
This blog is not a blog on the science of health or opinions of healthy family life. I wanted to share with you all, that I will be taking a pause on my blogs for the remainder of the year. While I love writing and sharing information with everyone, my heart is pulling me to work at an extreme level on something I am passionate about, and extremely driven to be successful with. I will be sharing this amazing project with everyone once I have achieved the level of potential I know it will surpass. I am so excited to dig into the amount of research, experimentation, and build up that will be required of me in these many months to come. Some of you may have guessed that it has something to do with my newest page on my website, “Mom Vibes”. You would be correct! So as a little teaser…it will be designed with Mom’s in mind.
Take care of yourselves and your families. Always take responsibility over your own health…You and your family are counting on you! You deserve to be a priority…so act like it!
Never hesitate to reach out if you have a question. (You can always message me on my Contact Page.) I will be returning to blogging once my new project is up and running!
Life needs your piece to the puzzle. Be confident in yourself to fit it in!
Your Mental Mom,
Regina Steele
