Avoidance

Avoidance sneaks in quietly. You notice it when something sits unfinished a little too long.
What are you avoiding?

This week, I drifted away from a few things I meant to do - this post, an eye exam, a workout plan for a friend, even folding the laundry.

At the core, I felt fear: not being enough, not being perfect, or getting more of what I want. Avoidance protected me from not knowing where to start.

Each time I paused, I felt that familiar “ah, there it is” moment. My inner critic kept saying, “wait.” My wiser self kept saying, “begin.”

Avoidance isn’t just resistance - it’s information. Sometimes it reveals where we protect ourselves, where perfection shows up, or where starting feels uncertain. It shows us where we feel pressure, uncertainty, or the pull of comfort.

What if you greet that avoidance with curiosity?
What if you listen to what it wants you to notice?
What if awareness—not judgment—guides your next small step?

Create your life.
