What do Madonna & Courageous Self-Care have in common?

Madonna could be the poster child for the 4th Foundation of Courageous Self-Care.

Why? Because it's all about Full Self-Expression. (You know the tune... Express Yourself Hey Hey Hey Hey!)

We've been going through the 12 Foundations of Courageous Self-Care (kind of like the 12 days of Christmas, but all the gifts go to you and there's no pear tree).

If you missed any of the previous Foundations, simply click the links below: 

Foundation 1 (Shifting your Relationship with Time)

Foundation 2 (Gratitude Changes Everything)

Foundation 3 (Freedom through Forgiveness)

Now, about Self-Expression. Our innate nature is to expand. We expand most fully when we are on purpose, feeling fully alive and showing up as exactly who we are.

In my opinion, our most important journey in this lifetime is finding out who we are, discovering our gifts and talents and sharing them unabashedly with others.

Can you imagine what life would be like if that were the case? Oh my gosh... life would be spectacular.

Of course, courage is necessary to be fully you. Full self-expression is about comfort zone expansion, the joy of creating and profound self-discovery.

Along the lines of full self-expression, I would love to share with you that I'm starting a podcast that will begin airing in the new year. 

I feel like I could talk enthusiastically for at least a  year about Courageous Self-Care and so that's what I'm going to do!

I'll keep you posted.

In the meantime, I encourage you to get curious about self-expression and see where you're at with it. Where do you feel fully alive and where do you hold back? Your answers to these questions could be the basis for what you want out of 2018.
