I'm the type of girl that's always got a little dilemma swirling around in her head.
Whether I need to have a dilemma swirling around in my head
because there's genuinely a dilemma in front of me,
or I create a dilemma because I'm bored,
I'm the type of girl that's always got a little dilemma swirling around in her head.
And a dilemma that I've found myself facing a lot recently is the choice to either strive or settle.
I have two conflicting mantras when I'm faced with this dilemma.
On one hand, I believe we should strive to get the best in life.
We should strive for as close to perfection as we can possibly find.
We should never give up.
We should always keep striving.
And then on the other hand,
I hold the belief that nothing is truly perfect and sometimes it's okay to settle.
Sometimes settling is actually how to find fulfillment and peace in life.
It can be such a beautiful thing to bloom where you're planted, you know?
So I thought today I'd sit down with you all and together we could discuss this dilemma and hopefully I can come out the other side feeling a bit more confident about how to handle this dilemma
as it does seem to come up for me a lot.
I briefly interrupt this episode to let you know that this episode is presented by The Ordinary.
Self-care is important.
But it can be super expensive, right?
