Two Natural Ladies discuss their upcoming book and the tricky road to being yourself and acceptable.

\\n

It sounds so easy when you hear the words \\u2018Just be yourself. Don\\u2019t worry what other people think. Just be you. Acknowledge your wonderfulness.\\u2019

\\n

But it\\u2019s not easy at all.

\\n

We all struggle to feel ok and not get caught up with the internal monologues that plague us, whispering \\u2018I should be thinner / smarter / talk less / talk more..\\u2019 We automatically compare ourselves to the other people around us and, more often than not, find ourselves lacking.

\\n

But I\\u2019m the only me I have, so it\\u2019s important to accept who I am. And, what\\u2019s so ironic is that while I\\u2019m busy thinking I should be more like \\u2018Jane\\u2019, because she exercises, always eats well, cooks homemade delights, sews, knits and loves gardening, someone else is looking at me thinking \\u2018Why can\\u2019t I be more like Jo?\\u2019

\\n

Jo & Vicki discuss finding your tribe- those that will have your back.

\\n

We are humans walking around with voices in our head and we have to navigate the internal and external worlds

\\n

Then conversing with others who also have their internal conversations. When there is conflict it usually isn\\u2019t what we think it is. If we can get out of the way and listen, we often find what we thought was the issue isn\\u2019t actually the issue

\\n

We will go to war over \\u2018the truth\\u2019 \\u2013 and when we look back at decision made 25 years ago do we think they are still \\u2018right\\u2019?

\\n

Two Natural Ladies talk about Sally Wilson\\u2019s discussion on her website, I am Sally

\\n

\\u201cFrom early childhood, we start taking on beliefs about ourselves and the world around us. These unconscious core beliefs form our identity, drive our decisions and shape who we are.

\\n

Have you ever thought...

\\n

\\n
• I\\u2019m not good enough.
  \\n
\\n
• I don\\u2019t deserve love or respect.
  \\n
\\n
• If I try, I\\u2019m going to fail.
  \\n
\\n
• Life\\u2019s just too damn hard.
  \\n
\\n

\\n

Those are unconscious beliefs. And those sneaky little suckers manifest in self-sabotaging behaviours that compromise your wellbeing and success. Over time, these negative thoughts will accumulate in your body and weigh you down.

\\n

The result? Feeling heavy, stressed out, and well and truly over it.\\u201d
