110-Believing Mirrors

Who is in your believing mirror?  In today’s episode, inspired by my friend Julie’s new book, I share what a believing mirror is and why this is so important.

Welcome to Everyday Happiness where we create lasting happiness, in 2 minutes a day,  through my signature method of Intentional Margins® (creating harmony between your to-dos and your priorities), happiness science, and musings about life. 

 

I'm your host Katie Jefcoat and I was reading a chapter in my friend Julie’s book about believing mirrors.  I will link the book in the show notes - it’s really good. 

 

So, in this chapter, Naked in Alaska, she talks about this incredible wisdom from her friend Valerie.  As women supporting one another, this makes my heart sing.  

 

The concept is pretty simple.  It’s having someone in your life that not only believes in you and tells you, but that reflects back to you all of your strengths.   

 

I created an entire online community to remind other women that you are doing a great job, that you belong and that we believe in you.  We have a woman in our community creating a bread baking company, starting out in a church and getting retail orders from coffee shops in the town she lives in.  That’s incredible!  We are encouraging her and cheering her on like it’s out J-O-B. 

 

Of course, I just read Julie’s book, I didn’t have this language of the believing mirror, but this is so deep in my core, that it made my heart sing when I read this chapter. 

 

We all DESERVE to have people in our corner.  Not in the cheap seats, but in the ring with us, reminding us that we’re amazing in our own individual authentic way.  

 

I believe the great tragedy of the times we live in is that we’re too busy to recognize what is most important in the moments we are in them.  We are pulled in so many directions, including having a mini computer in our pocket to distract us from what’s right in front of our eyes.  I’m guilty of this - which is why this is on my mind so much.   

 

So, I encourage you to make a list of 3 people that are YOUR believing mirror AND, create an #IntentionalMargin to spend time with those amazing brilliant thoughtful individuals.
