1221: Nothing in nature blooms all year round
Today we’re doubling down on yesterday’s message on not expecting ourself to finish the year strong.
Episode transcript:
Good morning, Daily Peppers, and a very happy Tuesday to you. So one of the quotes that I love to share the most around here is that one where it says, nothing in nature blooms all year round, so don't expect yourself to either. And it's one that I come back to time and time again because, my goodness, we are so good at piling the pressure on and always expecting ourselves to be doing new things and thriving and working hard. And we can easily forget that that isn't our normal default mode. We cannot expect ourselves to be on 100% of the time. So I share that today as a reminder. If you are feeling fresh out of fucks for the rest of the year, you're feeling really tired, or you wish you could just hibernate. Now I know we don't have that option, but we do have the option not to do it all.
It is only natural to get to this part of the year and feel pretty fucking exhausted. I think we'd all agree that it has been a year. And when you take a big picture view of everything that's happened this year, it's no surprise that we're exhausted, yet we can give ourselves such a hard time about it. So my question for you today is this. What if you made peace with the fact that you've done all the big things this year and that the rest of this year is for coasting and doing what you have to do. In yesterday's episode, I shared that fabulous Jane Carrington quote about not having to end the year strong. And I know today, I'm essentially just double downing on what I said yesterday, but it's because we need to hear it. We are so damn hard on ourselves.
We have such high expectations of ourselves. But I just wanna give you a huge permission slip to take your foot off the gas, Know that you've done enough. Know that your self worth is not on the line between here and January, and that you've done a pretty fucking good job this year. I am taking my own advice and doing the bare minimum. I'm meeting myself where I'm at, which can be really hard and try not to judge myself. And I'm taking the pressure off myself to bloom, and it is really helping. So that is my food for thought for you today. And just a friendly reminder that doors are still open for my group coaching program, One Woman Band Club.
It is a fabulous way of seriously getting shit done and doing it in a really compassionate way, making a whole bunch of new friends along the way. Spots are over halfway filled. So if you've been meaning to check it out or if you've been meaning to join, I recommend doing that soon. And you can find out more by going to the rebelrouses.com/1womanband. And if you're intrigued but not quite sure or you're on the fence, I'd love to have a chat. And you can book a free thirty minute discovery call via the link in the show notes or scrolling down to the bottom of the FAQs on the sales page. Here's to intentionally deciding not to bloom. Here's to taking the pressure off, and here's to us exactly as we are.

1201: Eat birthday cake for breakfast
If you need a reminder that you get to do things your own way, this one's for you!
Episode transcript:
Good morning, Daily Peppers, and a very happy Tuesday to you. In case you missed it yesterday, the rebel rousers pop up shop is open, and we've got a calendar, we've got bookmarks, we've got a postcard set, and we've got a desk planner. And if you're a fan of the Daily Peppa, I think you're gonna love them. It's open until the 5th November, so you can check it out by going to the rebel riser.comforward/popup, and maybe I'll be sending you something in the mail very soon. Now on to today's show. So there's something that somebody said to me once that absolutely blew my mind. And it's this idea that we can have birthday cake not on our birthday and we can have it for breakfast. Now I grew up as a good girl.
I wanted all the gold stars, and I think many of us can relate to that. And I think it takes a lot of deprogramming and unconditioning to realize that actually we get to do things our own damn way and we also get to create what gives us the gold stars when it comes to our lives. And I think this birthday cake example just really makes me laugh because it is so simple yet so fucking obvious that if you wanted to buy yourself a birthday cake not on your birthday and seriously enjoy it, you get to do that the same way as you get to make so many different choices and decisions in your own life that you alone get to decide or you get decide what feels right for you. It's so easy to get caught up in the trap of thinking that there's a right way to do things or we have to follow the status quo. But really, we get to make our own damn rules. I don't know about you, but sometimes I find myself in a bit of a bind in terms of the there's part of me that is the good girl who wants all the gold stars. And at the same time, there's this massively rebellious part of me that knows that I get to make up the rules, and it can be really hard being caught up in the 2 worlds. But one way I think we can really challenge that whole good girl thing is to start doing things like having birthday cake for breakfast.
And I mean that literally if that feels good for you. Taking small steps to remind yourself that you have autonomy, you have freedom, and I know this might not sound that liberating, but it really is. That nobody cares as much as you do, and people aren't necessarily studying your actions as closely as you are. So for today, what is your version of eating birthday cake when it's not your birthday? What is a rule or a convention that you can break that is gonna make you feel really good or remind you that you've got more power than you think you do? So put your thinking cap on. That is my challenge for you today. Have a fabulous Tuesday, and I'll see you tomorrow.
