Host explores the practice of enoughness, affirming that one is already enough and inviting listeners to keep their voice and presence instead of shrinking. The episode also previews Kristen’s later segment on sustenance and nutrition.
Lukewarm Saturday. Be proud of who you are. What if rather than getting to work on stuff and feel good and have a voice only when you feel good, you had one all the time? Later on this morning, you'll see our friend Kristen here talk about all things. Sustenance, nutrition, the things we put into our body.
Enoughness is the practice of affirming that you are already indeed enough. The world wants to convince you that you need to change something in order to get to the starting line of personal development. Every single one of you are always enough.
Today, I'm going to spend one minute talking about the first, ten first calibrating art. I want you to consider how often you bubble wrap your truth, your magic, your gift to the world. Your words are enough. Your honesty.
The world needs you to affirm your enoughness. Think about the times when you diluted your clarity or your gift. I suggest you open up your Spotify or your Apple music and type in Betty who. Listen to it, y'all. It'll set you up for a beautiful day.
Hey there, Cadre. Happy Saturday. Let the music play as we always do. Settle on in the back. Too tough, too big. Stay small, Stay quiet. Ain't that the story sometimes, y'all saying sorry for being yourself. You gotta be big. Morning, Luke. How are you, my friend? Kristen, Jules, Amy. Oh, the crew is coming into the house today, y'all. Your invitation. Be proud of who you are. Kimmy Lou. Aw, and Kimmy Lou, that puppy dog. Jiminy crickets. My three are sitting right out that door. Born to be big.
Okay, so that's Betty, who singing big. It starts off with the story of a young human in choir class. And because this young human is tall and big, the teacher says, hey, you need to be in the back. And don't try not to stand out, because you already stand out, so don't try to stand out. And then Betty, who says, Nah, 10ft tall. And I'm proud of it. I'm going to be big, y'all. I hope you're having a great start to your Saturdays. All of them, but especially this one. And if you're not having a great start to your Saturday, that's okay, too.
And that sounded like I was, like, tapping you out of your head. No, that is life. That is great, too. It is. What if rather than getting to work on stuff and feel good and have a voice only when you feel good, you had one all the time. They sell you on it. You interested? Guess what? You deserve that. The world needs that from you for you to always exist in a state of enoughness. That's what we talk about on Saturdays. Well, we talk about personal development on Saturdays, but I kick it off with enoughness.
Later on this morning, you'll see our friend Kristen here talk about all things. Sustenance, nutrition, the things we put into our body, and the glasses we have to wear in a world that tries to tell us a lot of stuff. So here's your morsel of enoughness today. A reminder. Enoughness is the practice of affirming that you are already indeed enough. What does that mean? Does that mean it's like, oh, so I'm just supposed to accept who I am and never change? No, actually, it's the opposite. It's because you are enough right now.
You can do something. I will go tooth and nail against the world with. With this. With this conversation. The world wants to convince you that you need to change something in order to get to the starting line of personal development. Well, I'm sick today. Well, I'm sad today. Well, I'm too fat. Too tall, too weird, too crazy, too loud, too quiet, too masculine, too feminine, too whatever. That's what the world wants you to believe. And I'm not a person who talks about the world often. And it gets an easy way out to be like, oh, well, the world says, I go, do better, work harder.
Who are you talking about? When I say the world in this moment, I mean kind of everybody. We have been doused in this idea that if we actually are enough, that we are big headed, that we're setting ourselves up to fall, that we are pandering to ourselves, that we don't push ourselves enough, that we don't work hard enough, then if we say I am enough, then all of a sudden we're saying, okay, now they can put me on the. On the. You know, they can, they can send me to trial and prove that I am not enough.
You know what? Every single one of you are always enough. And I'm not saying that with a tap on the head. I'm saying that with a. So what are you going to do? Enoughness is made up of four kind of calibrating arms. As you look at your enoughness, there's four things you can always tweak. Number one, your words are enough. That's your honesty. Number two, your feelings are enough. That's your intuition. Three, your thoughts are enough. That is your curiosity. And fourth, you are enough. At your presence, at your awareness of the world that you currently exist.
Today, I'm going to spend one minute talking about the first, ten first calibrating art. Your words are enough. Your honesty. I want you to consider how often you bubble wrap your truth, your magic, your gift to the world. Bubble wrap? Yeah, straight up. You take the precious thing and you separate it from the people who want it and need it. For you either want it or they need it. Those are two very different things. Someone says, hey, jc, what do you think about X? Oh, I'm gonna. I'm gonna get into it.
JC, what do you think about the election? Here's what 99% of people are gonna do. Well, this is just me, but. Well, I'm only. Well, I'm just. Before we actually give them what they asked for, and that is. Hey, jc, what do you think? What do you feel now? Especially in the example that I just shared. 99%. So like the rest of that 1%, what do we do the other time? We attack. We fight. We still don't give them the truth. We still don't Speak honestly and clearly. But we get into the nah because we think that they're setting us up in a trap.
I invite you today because it's the weekend and maybe you don't have as many conversations or contact points in the next two days. Maybe, maybe you do. But think about if you have some free time this past week. Think about the times when you diluted your clarity, you diluted your gift, you diluted the thing that people are asking and needing from you because you're bubble wrapping yourself, you're protecting yourself or lowering your worth for the sake of not being big as Betty who would say. Or not being enough as JC would say.
Think about it. You know, I'll give an example. I reposted kind of a square story on Instagram yesterday and it's all about the idea of who is worthy of teaching fitness. So I love to say that having someone who appears to be fit be your fitness instructor without having any other like things that you check into is just like giving a scalpel to someone who has a healthy heart and letting them cut you open. We live in a society that says, hey, if someone appears to be fit, if someone is skinny, has six pack abs, works out all the time, that they are now qualified to teach fitness.
And I make the correlation that that is exactly like giving the scalpel to someone who has a healthy heart to perform heart surgery on you. I don't care if my heart surgeon has a healthy heart. I care if they know how to do heart surgery. Really good. Because guess what? I guarantee you there is a large segment of heart surgeons who are really great at their job who don't have perfect heart health. Why? Because all the things, genetics, social determinants of health, stress, age, life, all of those things.
Guess what? I am going to speak my truth quickly on this point. All of the time. Why? Because that's what the world needs from me. And even more selfishly, that's what I need from me. Speak, wonder, Jules, Kristen, everybody else. Those are the only ones I can see on my screen right now. The world needs you to be enough. Let me say that more clear. The world needs you to affirm your nuffness because you are enough. And a lot of people would prefer you didn't exist that way. And he drops the mic on Betty who I want to feel, I want to let it all in.
I suggest you open up your Spotify or your Apple music or however you listen to music and type in Betty who. So Betty like the name Betty who like the question and then the name of this song. Song Big. Listen to it, y'all. It'll set you up for a beautiful day. The world needs you to affirm your enoughness. Speak, Wonder. Peace.
