Self work matters because you can’t escape you.

This post will explore why it’s important to do the self work to fall in love with YOU, because you can run but you can’t hide.

You don’t have to keep sacrificing your sanity.
You don’t have to keep putting your needs on the backburner.
You don’t have to keep saying “yes” when you want to say “no.”

It’s one thing to have someone else on your nerves, but a whole other frustration level to be on your own nerves. 


Because you can’t escape you. 


The quote “you can run but you can’t hide,” is your biggest hurdle right now, and also your biggest frustration. 


Your typical ways to outrun this unsettling feeling aren’t quite doing the trick the way they used to. 


You reached a point of chronic burnout (so over working isn’t a sustainable option like it was before).. 

 
 
 

You’re walking on eggshells due to extreme resentment boiling up inside, so overextending yourself by extreme people pleasing, parent pleasing, and perfectionist tendencies can’t continue or else you’re going to boil over. 



Buffering through social media is simply adding on another layer of guilt and shame, around your own relationships (or lack thereof) by comparing your mess against these faux pristine picture perfect lives and your inability to keep up with these societal pressures. 


It doesn’t have to be this way. 


You don’t have to keep sacrificing your sanity.

You don’t have to keep putting your needs on the backburner. 

You don’t have to keep saying “yes” when you want to say “no.” 


In fact, these are actually increasing the things you don’t want: resentment, burnout, and chronic comparison. 


Which are negatively impacting your performance, parenting, and partnership. 


When we work together, we examine HOW and WHY you’re operating in the ways you are. We uproot areas that aren’t serving you, and plug into new operating thought systems to try on, that will get you to the results you’re really after, faster. 

Results like:

  • increased presence with your partner

  • peaceful parenting

  • performing at a higher level that includes intentional time off



It simply takes PERMISSION to go after this. 


PERMISSION to live a phenomenal life, without constantly getting in your own way. 

PERMISSION to start & prioritize the relationship with YOU (so that everything around you gets that much sweeter). 


This is your permission, now it’s your time to claim it. 


This is what I do with my clients, daily. We Build Bulletproof Relationships…and that STARTS with the relationship with yourself. 


Together, we BATTLE non-serving patterns of people & parent pleasing, perfectionism, and shame. 


We BUILD safety & self trust, boundaries, and a backbone. 


And, we BECOME Bulletproof by becoming bff’s with ourselves. As a result we naturally become RELATIONALLY fit. 


When you know and love YOU, all other relationships get stronger. 


You no longer seek external validation to fill up your self worth tank, you know you’re worthy no matter what. 


Together, we get you there while healing & having fun, making it simple, and fulfilling. 


We make space, so the highest YOU can finally emerge. 


If you’re ready to get out of your own way, faster, let’s set up a time for a consult call to discuss 1-on-1 high level coaching.


When you start to tap into possibility, doors open that you never believed were possible. Let’s connect.


Healing self sabotaging behaviors

ABOUT THE AUTHOR I’m Meg Smithson and I remember vividly the heartache, distress, and agony that self sabotaging behaviors caused me. Between eating disorders, anxiety, major self doubt, and constant imbalance, I couldn’t seem to live the fulfilling life I imagined. 

If you are currently dealing with this, I get it & know exactly how you feel.

I spent a decade of heartache striving to fit the elusive mold of what mainstream considered “perfect” all while trying to figure out why I was put on this earth.

I learned to listen to what I needed…

…not what others expected of me. Gradually, I felt freedom like I had never imagined I could.

What does a relationship coach do?

Now, I teach women to find that freedom, too, by helping them create the relationship that they really want, faster by first healing their attachment to shame, people pleasing, & perfectionism.
