01.10.26 The importance of getting out of our comfort zone.

Before you think about skipping this one, just hear me out… The words “get out of your comfort zone”. You’ve heard it everywhere and yet it seems like the phrase just gets thrown out there loosely. I mean, when is the last time you really dug down deep in your soul and asked yourself, “WHY am I scared of getting out of my comfort zone?”.

I promise you, I’m not judging because for the LONGEST time, I did not want to get out of my comfort zone. I’ve been there. I was scared of what the consequences would be. Whether that be getting embarrassed, feeling left out, or having that fear of failure. I let the fear hold me back from so many things.

Let the new year 2026 be your year you step outside of your comfort zone. Maybe for you that looks like going to a restaurant by yourself. It could be going to that new yoga class you’ve been wanting to try but you might be intimidated (and that’s normal btw!). Or maybe you have been wanting to try a new hobby but afraid of what other people might think? News flash, who gives a fuck?! And I say that from the bottom of my heart.

My hope is that you’ll find the courage to just start somewhere to get out of your comfort zone. Yes, it may take time. Yes, you need to be kind to yourself during this process of growth. And no, it won’t be black and white or linear but that is ok! You are your own person. This is your life path; nobody else’s so don’t let someone else dictate what you’re capable of. I believe in you so believe in yourself!
