But What Do I Actually Want?

Last week, we talked about asking for what you want. But what happens when you're not actually clear on what you want?

Sometimes the problem isn't that we're afraid to ask. Sometimes we've gotten so disconnected from our own knowing that we don't even know what we'd ask for.

We think we should want certain things. We keep wanting what we've always wanted because we've put so much time into it. We want something because we think it will serve us down the line. Or we know what we want, but it seems impossible and we don't understand how we would ever get there.

So in this episode, we're slowing all of that down and asking:

But what do I actually want?

I talk about the ways we can override our deeper knowing with what looks good on the surface, what other people want, or what we think we should want.

Ultimately, you are allowed to want what you want.

You can want little things and big things. You can want something practical or completely unexpected. You can make a plan while leaving room for life to surprise you.

And sometimes what you want doesn't have to be deep at all.

Maybe it's just fun. Maybe it's the experience. Maybe it's a side plot. Maybe it's leading you toward knowing what you want next.

You're allowed to do things you enjoy. You're meant to feel good. And you're allowed to want things simply because you want them.
