Rewriting Your Legacy
After recognizing how her own familial traumas were impacting her every day life, Kathleen made it her mission to empower women to and break the generational & societal curses and rewrite their legacy.
Kathleen McDermott is serving up all the ways for you to design your legacy as a Stress & Lifestyle Coach, a Restorative & Adaptive Yoga guide and speaker & host of the Your Life Your Way Podcast.
Embrace your multi-passionate self. By trying lots of different things you discover a lot about yourself, your likes and dislikes. From this exploration you can start to hone in on the things that bring you happiness and fulfillment.
Practice what you preach. When you're coaching, teaching, or advising clients often become a mirror for things that have challenged us in the past. When things are feeling tough remember your own advice. ,
Ditch all the "shoulds". Are you living for you or are you "living" based on the expectations of others and how they believe you should be? Every time you hear yourself saying the word "should", pause to examine where that's coming from.
Don't force it. As in yoga, as in life - forcing yourself into a pose or position that is painful is not bringing any value. It's not going to help you physically, mentally, or spiritually. Move toward what feels good to you.
Consider your legacy. Break the cycle of unwanted patterns being passed down as part of your legacy. It's hard work but without it, the same shit gets passed on to your children and grandchildren.
Dig deep. Unearth the things from your past that are causing you to behave in unwanted ways today. When you do this and start the curious inquiry you can begin to separate yourself from what are your reactions vs what you've inherited.
Put your oxygen mask on first. t's not selfish to care for yourself before you care for others. Remember you can show up more fully when your own needs are met.
