Struggle is inevitable…

Your entire life will change when you realize that suffering is negotiable but struggle is mandatory.

You get to pick your hard. The hard of discipline or the hard of regret. The hard of growth or the hard of staying stuck. Choose your suffering wisely.

I can thank my ex-husband for the intro to my favourite therapist. Early on in our dating, I was agonizing over some family drama, and he stopped me cold. He said, “And who do you have to talk to about this stuff?” To which I said, “Well, my friends, and you.” To which he promptly said, “Yeah, that’s not happening. You need to speak to a professional about these issues, which are clearly deep rooted, and very upsetting for you.” Boom! Surprisingly, I wasn’t offended. I was curious. He recommended that I attend a couple of deep healing workshops, run by his favourite therapist. I was game, and the moment the therapist opened his mouth, I was mesmerized. I’ve been working with this therapist ever since and I owe him a lot. I simply would not be where I am in both career and my personal life without his teachings and wise counsel. I chose the hard of growth, and this is hands down the best decision I’ve made in my life. Just sayin’ :) Hugs and good luck. XO
