Ep. #77: What if it's just luck?

I want to spend our time together today talking about a pattern that emerges when we start doing the deeper work of creating change within ourselves and our families.It's a pattern that shows up when we are making changes within ourselves in all areas of our life, when we start to change our thinking and how we feel in certain contexts. And generally speaking, this pattern shows up as a form of confusion or denial.We see that things outside of ourselves are beginning to change, and we question the changes we see. We wonder, did I really do this? Maybe it was just luck. Maybe it was a fluke. Maybe my child was in a difficult phase and they've outgrown it. Maybe it has nothing to do with me.Or, we see the impact of the work we've been doing, and instead of embracing a newly cleared path forward, we worry about whether we will be able to maintain the change. What if we fall back into old habits?The key lies in integrating the changes you're making, so they're not just something you're trying on - they actually become a part of who you are in the future.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/julia-mcgarey/support Get full access to The Blackbird Chronicles at juliamcgarey.substack.com/subscribe This is a public episode.
