In this episode of The Secrets of a Witch Podcast, I talk about how being misunderstood, misinterpreted, and misrepresented is an unavoidable part of life. We have to get used to it, and be so grounded in our own authenticity that we're unflappable.
It can be very easy to desire and strive to be seen, heard, and understood, and to think we can't be fulfilled in life without trying to persuade and convince everyone to see us a certain way.
In reality, no matter who we are and how we show up in the world, some people will 'get' us, and others won't; this could be due to their own journey and lens (whether good or bad, healthy or unhealthy).
What matters the most is, do we know ourselves? Do we have self awareness? Do we have a good understanding of our own strengths and weaknesses? Do we know what we're terrible at and what we're good at? Do we respond well when trusted others teach us about our blind spots? How can we ground in our own sober self awareness about where we're at, and not get swept up in the highs and the lows of feedback from others?
I get into this topic in depth, including the importance of grounding ourself firmly in our own accurate self-concept - don't miss this episode!
