ep25 - Feel Like Shit? Listen to This
Jul 14, 2019
I open up in hope that you practice self compassion to yourself should you have a loved one sick, or struggling with the way you feel, or stuck in a rut it’s a natural human reaction to not be your happiest despite everyone telling you - that you must feel happy 24/7 - 7 days a week let’s face it no matter how hard we try we might suffer a loved one getting sick and that can affect the way we feel when we go to visit them at the age care or hospital so even though on social media we only post the good times the happy times that’s only a moment in time when we are sharing what we love and then there is a whole other side to our lives as influencers, bloggers, Author, speakers that you don’t get to see.
I share how I am happy and present and in the moment when I am visiting Spa Resorts in the Maldives.
But I also have times when I am not creating the @spaitgirl_travel #igtvtravelshow that I am not as upbeat and happy and this is when I am visiting my Mum at the age care home and seeing her sadly in Chronic Pain and laying in bed and unwell does not make me feel happy and I thought with so much now on social media portraying that everyone is happy 24/7 7 days a week that if we have something going on in our own personal life that we recognise it’s ok to let the feelings, emotions arise and to say it how it is.
If I told you seeing my Mum unwell and sadly dying makes me happy I would be full of shit as it does make me very upset of course as she is my best friend and my rock and of course my biggest Spa it Girl Travel Show Fan.
My Mum never wants anyone to have pitty on her and I have learnt this too. So whilst I have shared at times like on my Mothers Day post about my Mum and in my live feeds or one on one with my audience I generally keep my page to the actual topic which is spa travel, travel, Self Care.
But one of the things I like about the audio space as it allows me to open up a lot more, and to share stories from my childhood, or in my life which is why each day I wake up to practice on becoming my best own best self or to work towards my dream which is a work in progress and at the moment like many blog creatives I am juggling a number of things, like creating, blog, work, learning, and discovering what makes me feel good and what doesn’t and what I love doing and what I don’t love doing and I am still figuring it out also as each year social Media things and trends change the market and what my audience want and don’t want so it’s like you never get to a point and that’s it you have made it. Even though people tell me all the time you are living the life.
In this talk / I speak from the heart with no notes. So if I jump around on topics go with it as whatever comes through me is like a Message from the Universe and there might just be something in this #spaitgirl talk Show Podcast that can help you.
I am the most optimistic person I can be but at the same time I have to accept sadly when my Mum passes that is not going to be a Happy Time and I think it’s important that I share that with you otherwise if I was happy I would be heartless and full of shit as my Mum is my best friend, my rock, my No.1 Fan, but her work and legacy will always live on through the work I produce always for generations to come.
