One of our favorite pioneers of self-exploration and self-understanding is the great Dr.@BreneBrown. As one of the predominant researchers in vulnerability, shame, and empathy she is truly an expert on what it takes for people to take bold courageous steps in their lives.
In each of her books she discusses the importance of needing to write ourselves “permission slips” before we do something scary. Just like a child needs their parent’s permission to do something outside of their normal activities, it can be really empowering to give ourselves permission to explore something new.
So next time you embark on something new or scary, try explicitly writing what you’re giving yourself permission to do. Some of our favorite permission slips we’ve written ourselves are: permission to think outside the box, permission to learn something new, permission to look silly, or permission to not have the answers. It’s remarkable the freedom that comes when we proactively make ourselves the authorities on how we choose to interact with our lives. #YourSelfYourVoice
