So many good questions! I don’t do a check in but I like the idea and have thought about it.
I think our ancestors won’t even be able to comprehend the deep work that is possible now, what we’ve learned on top of ancient rituals!
My word for the last week was rest. And the coming week I think I’d chose determination!
Letting go of, I think I’ve let go of financial fear! It’s been an ongoing process but the universe really has got my back if I focus hard on what it is I want. 💗
Love all this! 😍 Amazing 🤩 never thought about the ancestors seeing us having had learnt on top of what they already knew. I think rest needs to by my word for the next few weeks. Not well today🙃
Love to journey with you through the insights in your week.
Last May (2022), I went out on my second disability leave and I never returned. I officially separated from my employer on December 31, 2022. What I’ve let go of in 2023 is this career as a huge part of my identity. For many months this year, I kept my officially work name tag (with my name, my title, and the name of my agency) attached to the pen holder next to my laptop. I had it there out of pride for what I once was, but also if I’m being honest, because I wasn’t ready to let it go. A few weeks ago, I finally removed it and put it in a box of memories. It’s no longer who I am.
Oooofff, I really felt the power of letting this one go - it gave me goosebumps down my arms and legs. I also feel the weight of how difficult a time this must have been for you. I really struggled with this on a personal level back in 2018. I had little to no support so It took me another 2-3 years to start to sit with who i really was, I just felt so cast aside by society and redundant. If your work identify is no longer who you truly are, where do you sit with the question of who you are now?
Good question! I guess I haven’t thought to be much about that affirmatively. I am starting to identify as a writer because of my Substack. But also, I’m so focused on my recovery that this feels like who I mostly am right now. And I’m working on staying a joyful and well-rounded person intellectually. It helps my recovery and also, it’s good for the people around me. I never want my identity to be that sick girl you see coming from a mile away and dread interacting with because she’s just going to talk about her sickness.
