But here\\u2019s my trick to getting through them all \\u2013 I\\u2019m letting go of any expectations I have around the outcomes.\\n \\u201cIn order for me to work through fear, I have to fully accept anything and everything can happen.\\u201d\\n There is no ONE thing that is going to make or break my life. And as I navigate each any every new thing, I gain more and more clarity around being truly me. Full honesty, I feel the most alive and \\u201cmyself\\u201d that I\\u2019ve ever felt. You see, there is zero room for being something that you\\u2019re not, because eventually you\\u2019re going to get caught being yourself. For me, that\\u2019s showing the side of me that loves to perform spoken word, sing (future podcast performance?), and swear. Parents, this may mean putting \\u201cearmuffs\\u201d on the kiddos now and again. Keep in mind, I\\u2019m not trying to purposely offend anyone \\u2013 it\\u2019s just how I express myself on occasion.\\n For example, in this episode I\\u2019m sharing a 30-second excerpt of a new spoken word piece I\\u2019m working on\\u2026I drop the F-bomb once, but it\\u2019s because that was the word that moved me in the moment. It\\u2019s about being yourself with a bit of discernment for your audience, right?\\xa0\\n So here\\u2019s to stepping into a new version of yourself! Who\\u2019s with me and how soon do you want to do it? Whenever that moment takes place, please let me know so I can cheer you on!\\n \\xa0\\n Follow me on social media @LoriHarder on Instagram and Lori Harder on Facebook'
