Obstacle Overload: Slow Down, Reflect, and Pivot to Power Up Your Self-Care

Many of us face similar obstacles, but why is it that some people overcome these obstacles while others continue to sit and focus on what’s stopping them from doing what they want and need in their life? I started reading the book “The Obstacle Is The Way” by Ryan Holiday. From what I’ve read so far, he writes about perceived obstacles and how the events that take place in our lives are neither good nor bad; we assign meaning to the event based on the stories we tell ourselves.

When asked to talk about ourselves, the first thing we usually start with is… “I’m a mom.” We tend to identify ourselves through the lens of others, often forgetting the person we were before we had kids.

Growing up, I often observed women saying "yes" more frequently than "no," even when their expressions hinted otherwise. It seemed like they felt obligated to comply, regardless of their existing commitments or personal plans.

As an adult, I question whether we're perpetuating this cycle ourselves or if it's an enduring societal norm. To that, I emphatically say, "NO!" I refuse not only to subject myself to such situations but also to serve as a role model suggesting that this is an unavoidable aspect of womanhood.
