I planned for this.
I meditated on it. I visualized it. I worked for it. I spoke it into existence. I showed up for it. Daily. Weekly. Monthly. Today looks the same as the rest of the days that I have been producing the Hearts Unleashed Podcast. *CHECK OUT MY IG STORY @_instagail_ for the most normal shit ever* No parade. No trophy. No awards ceremony. I write in my book, Giving Up Giving Up: The Memoir of a Quitter, that I realized how empty all the achievements were after divorce. The titles. The accolades. The notoriety. 𝐍𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐢𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞. Being the lead role or first string doesn't mean shit if you make people around you feel like shit...or if you feel like shit. Making all the money doesn't buy you happiness (not really). 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝. 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐮𝐧𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝. 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐲. AND NONE OF IT actually makes you feel complete, whole, or good enough upon attaining these superficial benchmarks. Today we hit 10k downloads in over 60 countries across the globe and no one's talking about it. It's not #trending. There's no headlines. No celeb status. Just a 30 year old woman talking life, love, and living her heart unleashed... ....𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘳. The acknowledgment is my own. Feeling more expressed and free than ever before. Feeling more powerful than more 'successful' versions of my past self. Feeling proud, satisfied, grateful, optimistic, and eager. The real win is not the 10k downloads. 𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐧𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘸𝘪𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘸𝘢𝘺. The win is doing work that I love where I want, when I want, how I want, and with whom I want. And I am glad that 𝐘𝐎𝐔 are one of these people.
