[292] Building Confidence While Letting Go Of Old Selves

A cup of tea, a quiet house, and one piercing thought: new people only know the version of us they meet today. From there, we follow a warm, honest path through identity shifts, seasonal energy changes, and the subtle grief of putting old selves on pedestals. I share why December feels lighter than the fog of October and November, how a nine year invites endings, and why shedding—like the snake—can be the kindest move you make for your future.

We dig into practical confidence you can feel in your body. Tiny movements become powerful rituals: calf raises at the cutting board, hand shakes on the sidewalk, hip openers by the playpen. The goal isn’t to chase an image; it’s to move energy and rekindle self-respect. Alongside movement, I walk through simple self-knowledge prompts to meet your current season with clarity: What does a yes day look like now? Which foods, friends, and rhythms feel like celebration? With a nod to human design, I show how tuning into your inner signals—gut, emotions, or intuition—helps you make decisions that align with who you are today.
