Finding Inner Strength in Everyday Challenges

This morning, I was reminded of something powerful: strength and resilience aren’t just found in the big, life-changing moments. They’re built in the everyday challenges... even the messy, uncomfortable ones.

I was faced with a task I had never done before, something that honestly grossed me out and made me want to avoid it completely. But it was something that needed to be done, for me, my children, and my home.

At first, I felt resistance rise up. Fear, discomfort, even dread. My mind immediately tried to talk me out of it: “You can’t do this. It’s too much. Someone else should handle it.” But deep down, I knew this was mine to face.

So instead of spiraling, I slowed down. I gave myself space to think, and then I reached out to trusted friends for support and advice. I strategized, created a plan, and even practiced my technique in my head. I leaned on the rituals that ground me. My morning routine, mindful breathing, and energy clearing. These simple daily practices get me into a steady, focused headspace.

And then, I became my own cheerleader. I hyped myself up, spoke words of encouragement, and reminded myself that I could do hard things.

When it came time to act, I followed through. I did what I needed to do to make the task easier on myself. I faced the discomfort head-on. And I did it.

The best part? The moment I was finished, I felt an overwhelming sense of pride. I had conquered a fear, pushed past resistance, and proven to myself that I am capable, strong, and resilient. That feeling of empowerment stayed with me long after the task was done.

This experience reminded me of an important truth: resilience and perseverance are built one decision at a time. Every time we choose to face discomfort with courage, we grow. Every time we hold ourselves accountable and show up, even when it’s hard, we get stronger!

And here’s the beautiful thing: you have that same strength within you! Sometimes it just takes the right support, tools, and encouragement to uncover it. That’s exactly what I love about nurse coaching! I have the privilege to walk alongside women as they discover their own inner resilience, confidence, and power.

Strength looks good on you.

💜 If you’re ready to step into your strength, I’d be honored to support you on that journey.
