When you hit your limit (and walk away)
|
I’m going to be honest... I hit my limit yesterday. I’m in this Enlifted coaching certification. Small cohort. Nine of us. Weekly live calls. Exercises. Reading out loud. Speaking. Participating. Every week I push through the social anxiety. The chest tightening. Gerald telling me to retreat. And I show up. But this week? After my one-on-one session, the friendship situation, not sleeping well, and the emotional pile-up… I was already maxed out before the call even started. By the end, we had to read something out loud. And I couldn’t. I just left. No explanation. Just clicked off. And I spent the next 24 hours beating myself up for it. Childish, weak, and embarrassing. That was the script. But when I slowed down and actually looked at it? I didn’t leave because I’m incapable. I left because my nervous system was at capacity. There’s a difference. Old me would’ve forced it, performed through it, and collapsed later. New me is learning this: Knowing your limit is not failure. It’s regulation. After I stepped away, I reached out to my coach. I reached out for support. I processed. I took space. And today, before writing this email, I opened The LIST Method™ Tool. Because the loud sentence wasn’t “You can’t do this.” It was: “You should’ve handled that better.” Fact: I was emotionally overloaded. Story: That means I’m weak. Those are not the same thing. That moment where the loud sentence was running the show and I almost believed it... That’s exactly why I built The LIST Method™ Tool. It’s the same process I used sitting on my couch after that call. Separate the fact from the story. See what’s actually true. Respond from regulation instead of shame. If you’re at your limit right now and the loud sentence is telling you you’re failing, this tool will help you get it out of your head in about 5 minutes. → Grab The LIST Method™ Tool here You don’t have to white-knuckle your way through everything. Sometimes the strongest move is stepping back, getting clear, and then choosing your next step on purpose. PROUD OF YOU 💙 Walking with you, Leasha |

Something hit me while I was out doing deliveries today. Just random thoughts while driving. But they stopped me. I started thinking about the life I have now. And the truth is, I never thought I would have this. The friends I have now? I never dreamed people like this existed for someone like me. People who show up, who support me and who care without keeping score. It makes me emotional thinking about it. Because for decades, I was the other girl. Overextending. People pleasing. Always the...
Whew. What a weekend. It's Sunday. Time changed last night. I'm running on fumes and I have zero regrets. If you didn't get an email from me yesterday, that's why. Birthday weekend. My wife had the entire thing planned and we were basically gone from Friday until right now. Friday night we did a little staycation. Saturday... paintball (I am still feeling that today 😅), dinner, then games at a friend's house until way too late. This morning, pickleball with another couple. Tonight, a couple...
Today is my 37th birthday. I didn't sleep much last night. Not because anything was wrong. I think I was just… excited. I woke up feeling good. My wife took a half day and apparently has the entire weekend planned out to celebrate. Around here we celebrate everything and I am not complaining about that one bit. But before I go do that, I want to share something with you. When I signed up for the Enlifted coaching certification, I had hope that it could help me. I did not realize how powerful...
