The "new" you has been confronting aspects of the "old" you.
You're challenging yourself to do better, to live better.
You're stepping out of your comfort zone.
This is a leveling up phase that is going to inspire you to allow yourself to flow more freely with trust that the path you've embarked on is not only safe, but in alignment with the vision you've held for so long.
You gave yourself an opportunity to catch up.
You took a few deep breaths, and now it's time to begin experiencing all that you've asked for.You watched yourself struggle.
