👣 WALK YOUR TALK with Amy
A Weekly Dose of Truth, Freedom and Love
Hi Reader,
🩵 Today is a blahh day.
The kind of day I wish I could avoid writing from, but here we are. This is the truth of where I’m at. And I promised myself I would stop hiding the parts of me that feel gray and tired.
I had a deep session with my coach this morning and it did not go how I wanted. My intention was to look ahead. Map out year five in my business. Five is my lucky number. I told myself this year would be a big one. New levels. New behaviors. A version of me I haven’t met before.
But my subconscious had other plans.
Instead of opening the door to the future, it showed me a feeling that was starving for attention. A quiet resentment. Not the fiery kind. Not the angry kind I know so well. This one was subtle. Irritable. Bored. Vulnerable. Almost sad.
It invited me to sit beside it and listen.
So I did. I gave it space. I did a release ceremony. I felt a little lighter. And now here I am again. Sitting with the fog of it all as I write to you. Tired. Flat. A little gray like the sky outside.
Here is the truth that landed hard today.
My resentment is sick and tired of working so hard.
I am a doer.
I am an action taker.
I can move mountains when I’m in motion.
I can do things other people freeze on.
But when you take massive action and never pause long enough to see what is actually working. When you keep pushing and pushing and the results you’re praying for still haven’t shown up. When you feel like you’re sprinting toward a finish line that keeps moving.
Resentment builds.
It hides under the surface. Quiet. Patient. Waiting for the right moment to be seen. And today it made an appearance.
I’m not mad at it. I’m not happy about it either. I’m just meeting it honestly. Without pretending I’m somewhere I’m not.
💙 The Shared Emotional Experience
Recently I taught a workshop called How To Stop Being So Hard On Yourself. The women who attended were carrying the same weight. Entrepreneurs holding hope in one hand and exhaustion in the other. Doing the work. Not seeing the progress. Feeling stuck. Feeling like they should be further along. Feeling like something must be wrong with them.
There were tears.
There was truth.
There was relief in being witnessed.
And as I sat with them that day, I realized I had been in that exact emotional space just days before. And here I am again now.
😞 Resentment Toward Your Own Life and Growth
We usually think resentment is something we hold toward people. But we can also hold resentment toward our own life. Our own healing. Our own growth. Our own business. Especially when we pour time and heart and effort into a dream and watch things fall flat over and over.
Or watch things that once worked stop working.
Or feel like nothing has worked at all.
🗣️ Nothing to Fix. Just Truth to be told.
I wish I had a quick fix for this.
A perfect step by step.
I don’t.
What I do know is this.
Resentment is a feeling.
It is valid.
It makes sense.
It needs care.
It needs to be witnessed.
It needs expression.
& just like every other emotion we carry it will pass.
So this week’s message is simple.
If any part of this resonates.
If you are tired. Or bored. Or discouraged. Or worn from the inside out.
❤️🩹 You are not alone.
Loneliness is not about how many people surround us.
It is about how much truth inside of us is kept hidden.
So today I’m letting my truth show here. With you.
Because one message came through clearly in my session.
Speak the truth.
Tell the truth.
Live the truth.
So here I am. Truth on the table.
Resentment in the room.
Fog in the air.
Heart open to a shift whenever its ready to come in.
And oddly enough.
Letting it be seen does feel like progress.
It makes me smile a little.
It reminds me I am human.
It reminds me you are too.
And we get to walk this journey together.
Thanks for being here.
With Truth, Freedom & Love,
Amy xo
