My first time. * * * * This is a picture of the first time I did something for me. A life changing, mind and body altering moment that was all for me. I wanted this tattoo for years. I was always too scared. Not of the pain. Physical pain is something I can do. I was consumed with fear of Judgement and Self Doubt. Judgement: I was being held prisoner by the fear of judgement. What others would think of me, what my mom and brothers would say/think, how other people would categorize me. Self-doubt: What if this isn’t what I really want? What if I don’t like it in five years? What if people think differently of me? What if.... Bullshit. All of that 👆🏻is a culmination of self-limitations and bullshit beliefs that I chose, in the end, to ignore. It was a six hour sitting of me being present, sharing my story with my artist and healing from so much insecurity. How did all of that happen in a tattoo shop?! 1️⃣ I financially invested in myself. 2️⃣ I did it just for me. It was the moment I realized it was okay to do things for me and living in fear of what others thought was a fucking waste of time. 😬 At the last minute, I almost bailed. My thought was, “My Mom is going to kill me and I’m never going to hear the end of it.” My next thought was, “If she was dead would I do it?” (Sorry Mom) When the answer was, “fuck yes!” in that very moment I became free from the dogma of other people’s expectations for my life. It became exponentially clear that what other people wanted for me, wasn’t what I wanted for me. Two coaches and an amazing journey through my old bullshit later and I couldn’t be happier with not just my life but with myself. When you’re ready for your first time to say yes to your natural confidence and your true purpose, message me. 2️⃣ spots left for the month of December!
