t of my week was slow and un eventful! I spent afternoons going on walks with the pup, and most of my fay doing work, research, and making dinners. I am in my healthy girl era as well as my entrepreneur journey. I like being able to have free roam on my days. Although I am in major need of some more clients!!! I sadly am coming up on my last week with one of my first ever clients. She expressed needing a pause in my services due to personal reasons, but it so sad. It is part of the job- the constant revolving door of consumers, but I always build such fond connections with my collaborators that seeing them go does take a toll on me. Especially since I was just getting into the flow of more clients.
The Middle of My Week came to brutal pause.
I got my first ever Nexplanon injection and I don’t know if it was the fact that I woke up at 6:30am that day, or some unknown fatigue due to the shot… but it was a slow day for me. I took my “hot girl nap” by 11am and did my work from bed. Yes, it is not productive of me to do. Ya girl needed it though. So, I got my much needed rest.
Just because I am short, does not make me less capable.
A funny thing about my doc trip- every once in awhile i’ll get the lovely comment about my height. In an attempt to be nice; I get the “Oh I have *insert friend of relative here* like you” LIKE ME. What they mean is- someone under the height of 5ft. Yes, I am 4’9 and there is not a freaking thing I can do about that. On that same note, people will try to “comfort me” with the, “it’s okay, guys like short girls” *throw up here* I understand people are trying to be nice, but it does not change the fact that I am short, nor should it be seen as a problem or deficiency. The problem at hand is related to the idea of making me out to be “un normal” or like… just an issue. I have spent a majority of my life feeling bad about something I can have any control over. The comments I have heard my whole life had only made me feel inferior. This stigma of not being equal or able pisses me off. Just because I am short does not mean I am less capable.
Yes, my life can be worse. I know. Yet when you are presumed as lesser than; it is only a matter of time that you believe it. Like everyone else, I have my insecurities. This one I just happen to start embracing. I do tend to correlate a lot of my feelings back to the topic at hand.
I can tell this little rant will come off as anger or ranting. That is the passion. In reality; I am sitting on my couch with the pup next me asleep and I write this in a neutral silence.
Let’s wrap her up.
So, your question this week: How do you overcome your insecurities?
