Ep 59: We Have To Show Up

Ep 59: We Have To Show Up

By Kelly Roberts

There's no such thing as the right time to get started. Showing up when you're intimidated, unprepared, or getting started is terrifying. I'll be honest, I was really intimidated to show up to a Strava "My Mile" event last week. For the first time in months, I hesitated when I went to take my shirt off. It never ceases to blow my mind how quickly that little voice that says, "You shouldn't be here", "You're not fast enough to be here", or "look around, your best isn't good enough" can go from a whisper to a roar.

I can sit here all day and tell you that all you have to do is show up but I'd be doing all of us a disservice if I didn't acknowledge how scary it can be to show up. That being said, we have to push ourselves to show up. The only way we can control that inner critic is if we show up. Never let anyone tell you that you're not good enough. Not friends, not family, not strangers, not trolls online, and especially not your own voice that cuts the deepest. 

Let's talk about how important it is to show up.
