Feeling Lost In Other People's Lives, Feelings, Desires? Here's What To Do

De-centering others and centering yourself in your life is *necessary*, not selfish.

It is about understanding what matters personally to you while setting aside other people's opinions and perspectives of what you should be centering in your life.

They are not the authority, and they do not live with the outcome like you do.

You are the authority.  You inherent the outcome and consequence of your actions.  Thus, you must center yourself if your life is to yield well-being, peace, satisfaction, or whatever else you desire to experience and feel.

Centering yourself means asking, "does this option take me where I want to go?"

It means saying no deliberately to things that don't take you towards the purpose you have chosen for yourself, even when it means ending commitments, disappointing people, or doing things others may not understand.

It means saying yes deliberately to things that do take you towards that purpose, even if it is scary, new, unknown, or you may initially fail.  

Centering yourself in your life is how you start experiencing what you want as something you have.

FOUNDATION: To exit the survival phase of codependency and enter real healing and creation, you must develop emotional safety, social belonging, and independent self worth. I call these the Three Necessities, and they are what causes your body to start advocating instead of functioning from codependency.  You cannot have peace, freedom, healthy relationships with these solidly in place.

Foundation guides you step-by-step in creating real emotional safety, belonging, and self-worth over 15 weeks.  If you're ready to be done with the pain, shame, and chaos codependency brings to your life, start here.
