How to Stop Living the Life Everyone Expected of You

So let's talk about, because obviously you have

lived a...

A difficult life and being able to help women because there are a lot of people, even for the women whose lives look so perfect, there's baggage.

We all have baggage that we come with.

And how do you unpack that baggage? Baggage.

I remember I had a girlfriend who said to me once, you know, we all go through issues and problems.

And she said, Christina, there's no greener grass.

There's only a different color green.

So you have to decide, do you want the baggage that you know and you understand? Or do you want to go find a different color green and new baggage? Because there's going to be baggage there.

Yeah.

Yeah,

exactly.

I think everyone has something to... to look at.

Otherwise, we wouldn't even be here.

We have to get through it and work with it, basically.

But what I'm finding out is that there are a lot of women who continue on the same path, but they feel empty inside.

They don't connect to their true passion and self and their wanting to be something for themselves and society and their kids.

And it's sad because we have so much to give, you know?

So how do you help women break that out, break it down and change the pattern?

Well, it's a conversation around small steps.

I don't recommend what I did, which is to, I'm always packing up and leaving.

You know, it's like, no, no, no, no. That's a big one.

Small steps, trying to understand in which parts of your life are you now respecting yourself? Because we feel it, the body tells you.

It's either a lump in the throat or something in your stomach.

You wake up and say, oh my God, I have to do that, but do I really want to? And you drag yourself through the day and you really don't feel good.
