EP295: You Are Allowed to Want Something Different
Have you ever changed your mind about something you once cared about deeply — a career path, a relationship, a life plan — and felt guilty about it? Tonight, we explore the quiet permission to want something different. Changing direction is not betrayal. It is growth. You are allowed to outgrow old dreams without mourning the dreamer you used to be.
In this episode:
- Why attaching our identity to our desires makes change feel like failure
- The story of a woman who left medicine for environmental science — and learned the most important lesson of her life
- A man who discovered pottery at fifty-three and found the most honest thing he had ever done
- The Japanese concept of "ma" — the space between who you were and who you are becoming
Affirmations:
1. I am allowed to change my mind without apology
2. My past dreams do not define my future choices
3. I release the guilt of outgrowing who I used to be
4. Wanting something new does not erase what I learned from wanting something old
5. I am not inconsistent. I am evolving
6. I trust the person I am becoming, even if I cannot name them yet
7. My worth is not tied to a single path or a single dream
8. I give myself permission to begin again, as many times as I need
9. The life I want now is just as valid as the life I wanted then
10. I am allowed to want something different, and I am allowed to go get it
