EP86: What Will You 86?

Published: May 19, 2022, 7 a.m.

After a while, you realize something is simply not working in life. The beautiful part about that is the opportunity to remove, throw out, release, or refuse service to whatever is no longer serving you. This episode talks about choosing what to 86 in your life.

The phrase \u201c86 it\u201d has so many origin stories. No matter which origin story you hear, the common theme relates to something no longer being served or no longer being considered. Using the term \u201c86\u201d is like acknowledging what\u2019s not right for us and our intention to let it go. What do we want to 86 in our lives?

I\u2019m here to spend quality solo time with you for EP86\u2019s Wise Walk as we discover our True Stride. I share what I\u2019m currently 86\u2019ing out of my life. I\u2019m releasing things such as feelings of failure, thoughts of being hard on myself, and unrealistic expectations. We all deserve to release unrealistic expectations, and give ourselves grace, space, and time to shift.

On our Wise Walk, I discuss how to be fully present in your main priorities when you 86 what no longer belongs in your life. You can 86 a thing, a habit, a thought, a relationship, a job, an activity, or an event. Come with me as we reflect on these Wise Walk questions:

  • What jumps out at you, in terms of looking at your life and what you need to 86?
  • What do you need to throw out, or get rid of, or \u201cshow the door\u201d? Is it a thought, person, or activity?

We can nurture ourselves to thrive. After you choose what to 86 in your life, you have more room to call something into your life to replace those things. You can call in love, acceptance, hope, or joy.

Take small steps to regain traction toward your True Stride. Play with this idea of 86\u2019ing what no longer belongs in your life so you can have more of what you really want. Choose what you want with this Wise Walk question:

  • Once you 86 that thing out of your life, what are you going to replace it with?

Memorable Quotes:

  • \u201cI have to release, or 86, these expectations that I have that are unrealistic; that I can \u2018do it all\u2019 or that I can \u2018be everything to everyone\u2019, including myself.\u201d - Mary Tess
