I’ve been sitting with a lot of uncertainty lately about a major obligation coming up later this week, and it got me thinking about how much invisible energy goes into just preparing ourselves to face what’s ahead.

When you are already feeling depleted, just getting to the starting line can feel like a massive hurdle. It takes a lot of quiet courage to look at a daunting situation and decide to show up anyway.

If you are stressing over a heavy task or a tough week ahead, please give yourself some credit. Just choosing to step up to the plate and try is a massive win all on its own.
