Episode 205: Is it Selfish?

When you think about what you want for your life, one of the things that can get in our way is the fear that what we want might be selfish.  Going after our goals, following our desires, and paying attention to the things we want can feel self-serving and self-focused and sometimes we are suspicious of our own desires. What if we want isn’t good? What if it takes time and energy away from the other priorities in your life? On today’s podcast, I’m talking about how our fear that pursuing our desires might be selfish can hold us back from living the fullest expression of our lives and what to do about it. I’m going to help you question how you think about selfishness, how you think about your desires, and how to reconcile pursuing the things you want with the impact that has on other people.
