You know?

I'm like, was I anxious, motherfuckers?

How you like me now?

Everyone's why I do think about my therapist and think, huh.

I think I'm most amazed by people who leave situations that aren't for them without something else that is for them ready.

I think that's the most badass thing you can do.

The people who just like honor their own desire for freedom or for something better or just their hunch that it's supposed to be more beautiful without an actual eviction notice.

You know, because I got an eviction notice, truly.

And God, what would have happened?

I don't know.

I mean, I hope that my discontent, I think discontent is like this.

biggest gift in the world I think that's why we have to practice sitting with ourselves that's why we have to practice not numbing because I really think that the little numbing things we do each day like the ways that we take the edge off that the edge is exactly what is pushing us to make decisions that are freer and truer and more beautiful for us so I get so scared about those little daily numbings

Like if you're a person who numbs each evening, even just a little bit, what if you're numbing the very energy that is in you to propel you to the next thing?

And what if that little teeny daily numbing is like a big freaking deal?

I have many people in my life who have left relationships, jobs, scenarios, friendships without knowing, like who've just stepped off the cliff without knowing where they're going to land.

And I've seen...

magic happen with that so I think that's like a new frontier I mean all the excuses we need to leave are really bullshit I mean I used to every time I would I don't ever I've never listened to myself in an interview I've never read my one of my own books and I've never listened to my own podcast ever not one time one of my dear friends told me that when I was doing the tour for untamed

that every time an interviewer or reporter would bring up me leaving Craig, I would immediately, within the next two minutes, bring up the fact that he had been unfaithful to me.

And another thing I used to do all the time, if anyone in any interview mentioned my success, anything revolved around success, whatever the hell that means, but like a list or a book sales or whatever, within the next three minutes, you would have heard me mention my activism, charity work.

And I wasn't doing that consciously.
