@Regranned from @ankhjii_pro_yeo - Is there anything left for you to be afraid of. This is the moment it all comes together. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. I believe in incredible moments.. I believe it is possible. Thought is the root of all creation. #47days 💎🕉️ #AbsolutelyNoFilter #NoFilter #ProYeo #Driven #ArnoldPrep @arnoldsports #ArnoldClassic #ASF18 #FlexFetish #FlexyChicks #FlexingLadies #GirlsWithMuscle #GirlsWhoLift #ChicksThatLift #Muscle #Chest #Pecs #QuadsOfInstagram #Quads #Delts #SallyVein #Striated #Vascular #Biceps #Bodybuilding #Physique #IronLotus #BreatheFire #FocusedAF #focus

I try really hard to be brilliant sometimes, but the harder I try, the less I feel free to be here unless I’ve achieved that goal. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m figuring out that there’s more chance of brilliance if I am showing up than if I’m hiding myself away waiting for it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Just thought I’d share, because I only want to be brilliant because I think you are. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thanks for showing up, for being HERE. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _____ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bykellēsauer #breathefire #howtobealover #brandingisalovestory #livemoremagic #morningslikethese #womenwhorunwithwolves #liveyourpassion #createeveryday #fempreneur #creativebusiness #creativepartnerships #simplethingsmadebeautiful #wildsssouls #lifeunscripted #whatifyoudidit #entrepreneur #dowhatyoulovelovewhatyoudo #brandmanager #strategy #playeveryday #womeninbusiness #sustainablebusiness #womensupportingwomen #inspiration #tgif #originalitycoach #friday __⁣ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp4pEmHOHQv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Spring is coming. It always comes. And it always comes in its own time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There’s a beautiful inevitability to this (that I tend to forget somewhere around January 3 every year 😅). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am realizing how much of the last few months I’ve spent wishing time away, wishing to be somewhere else. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Winters are hard. Waiting is hard. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Wishing is hard too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m beginning to notice that the life that makes me happiest isn’t a life full of dreams coming true. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s just a life where I’m in it, connected with every bit of it—the weather, the seasons, the sound of it all, the people I care about, even the ache of it… ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I don’t need more goals; life isn’t goals. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Life is what happens when we turn with the seasons, when we set our rhythms with a world that isn’t rushing on and away from us, not really, not if we take the time to think about it, to be in it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Take a breath,” I remind myself a few times a day lately. “There’s no rush, not really.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Life always comes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _____ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bykellēsauer #breathefire #storyofbeing #mentalhealth #affirmation #howtobealover #brandingisalovestory #livemoremagic #songofseasons #morningslikethese #writersofIG #wildseasonalinspiration #womenwhorunwithwolves #liveyourpassion #createeveryday #fempreneur #creativebusiness #creativepartnerships #simplethingsmadebeautiful #wildsssouls #lifeunscripted #sleepy #whatifyoudidit #entrepreneur #dowhatyoulovelovewhatyoudo #growth #spilledink #monday #quotes __⁣ (at Charleston, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpuhVXwuDAS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

An easy landing for a Monday morning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ______ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ One of my favorite things this year has been intentionally setting my workdays for Tuesday-Thursday so that I have Mondays and Fridays to focus personal projects, home things, appointments, etc., and my weekends to choose what I do. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It took a solid year of coaching—and some new and needed boundaries—to make this a feasible option for me, but it’s been incredibly lifegiving (and surprisingly productive!). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Instead of people-pleasing myself into burnout, I’m beginning to live into a rhythm that I’ve been wishing for since I started my business 15 years ago. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I spent way too long fighting my own expectations of what productivity looked like. I couldn’t rest, even when I didn’t have any work at all. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now I know what my capacity is (well, most of the time 😅), and where I can say yes (or no, sometimes), and I’m leaning into what comes easily. No more competing with my work projects for the life I want to live. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So if “showing up” looks like I need little more rest on a Monday, then that’s what I get to do, knowing that if I get more, my people get more too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _____ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bykellēsauer #breathefire #storyofbeing #mentalhealth #affirmation #howtobealover #brandingisalovestory #livemoremagic #songofseasons #morningslikethese #writersofIG #wildseasonalinspiration #womenwhorunwithwolves #liveyourpassion #createeveryday #fempreneur #creativebusiness #creativepartnerships #simplethingsmadebeautiful #wildsssouls #lifeunscripted #sleepy #whatifyoudidit #entrepreneur #dowhatyoulovelovewhatyoudo #growth #spilledink #monday #quotes __⁣ (at San Francisco Bay Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpcma_ELFzw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We haven’t seen golden hour for a few days, so I’m indulging myself with a sunset. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _____ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I feel like I’m 90, the way my bones ache in the rain anymore. It’s just my body being dramatic about the fallout from the old Lyme disease scarring (and probably still recovering after yet another fever that took me out last week). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m slowly making room for this in my business model lately—after a few years of feeling unaffected by my limitations, I had made a habit of taking on more than my body could handle, and a crash into long Covid in October last year revealed some uncomfortable truths that I had been ignoring. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I have done this before—I started this way, in fact—but it’s become more important than ever to be able to slow down and really live in my days, and not just focus on function. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I feel like I’m setting patterns now for the way I’ll grow old loving my people. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s a good challenge, though it *is* a challenge. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Grace is both the easiest thing and the hardest thing to receive. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _____ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bykellēsauer #breathefire #storyofbeing #mentalhealth #affirmation #howtobealover #brandingisalovestory #livemoremagic #songofseasons #morningslikethese #writersofIG #wildseasonalinspiration #womenwhorunwithwolves #liveyourpassion #createeveryday #fempreneur #creativebusiness #creativepartnerships #simplethingsmadebeautiful #wildsssouls #lifeunscripted #sunset #whatifyoudidit #entrepreneur #dowhatyoulovelovewhatyoudo #growth #spilledink #monday #quotes __⁣ (at San Francisco Bay Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpK5gDArq1C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
