However lately I've adopted a slight "I don't care anymore" attitude. That doesn't mean I don't do my best and try with work and relationships and my personal life. It more means that I won't let it affect me the way it used to. Work and things I cannot control shouldn't have the power to hurt my health. Ever since this, I've felt so much lighter and it's been really freeing. I've also been reading the book "May Cause Miracles" by Gabby Bernstein and it's been really revealing about how the ego is constantly trying to sabotage us with fear and gives ways to combat it.

Having been one of those people that worked a crazy ass job (that I loved) but ultimately had to give up to be able to reduce the level of stress in my life so I was able to get pregnant, I completely know where you're coming from. Now I stop and remind myself regularly that I live my life on my own terms and I will make it, and enjoy it how I like!
