Releasing Comparison and Competition

<p class="" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Raise your hand if you’ve ever personally been victimized by Regina George? Just kidding but not really.</p> <p class="">How many times have you compared yourSelf to another woman. . . too many to count? Me too.</p> <p class="">How many times have you competed with another woman. . . same answer? Me too.</p> <p class="">It’s time to step out of our old ways and decide to rise together.</p> <p class="">It’s time to allow ourSelves freedom through sisterhood and true authentic connection + friendships.</p> <p class="">From the time we are little we are put against each other. We see it in the movies when womxn compete against a man. We see it in sporting events to compete against a spot, school for the grade and this is just a few of MANY. </p> <p class="">Think about it, we go on Instagram or Facebook and right away feel less than because we feel like the woman in front of us is more than. Where did that come from? Who gets to change this thought pattern? US!!</p> <p class="">I have memories from the time I was 8 years old of other womxn feeling intimidated because I could run fast. Can you believe it? We are intimidated by each other because our gifts don’t look the same . . . so silly?</p> <p class="">In today’s episode, I share stories from childhood, teens, and young adulthood about times where I was in situations where womxn did not stand together, me included, and how we COULD HAVE to make life just so much easier for them all. </p> <p class="">What if from a young age we start to celebrate each other's differences instead of being scared by them?</p> <p class="">What if we began to teach each other to share our differences with respect?</p> <p class="">What if we practiced communicating openly + honestly to encourage clarity between us?</p> <p class="">And one of the BIGGEST things we can do especially as womxn is to start to go on social media with an intention. I will absolutely not go on to social media unless I have one of the following on my mind.</p> <ol data-rte-lis
