Don’t be sorry for who you are

June 27, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

What I want for myself, more than anything, is to stop apologizing for who I am. I didn’t start to figure out who I am until I was in my very late 20s and only really started mining the core of it when I was 31. I learned, very young, how to perform and how…… Continue reading Don’t be sorry for who you are

Being judgy

June 16, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

I’m reading Rachel Hollis’s book Girl, Wash Your Face, and this post is inspired by her chapter on being judgmental and competitive–especially woman on woman. She starts the chapter by telling a story about how in high school she made fun of a girl who admitted to shaving her toes when she herself shaved her toes,…… Continue reading Being judgy

Own your story

June 9, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

In the summer of 2013, when I first started running, I also did Jillian Michaels’ 90-Day Body Revolution video series. Thirty minutes every day of high-intensity circuit training, on an exercise mat, with free weights and a resistance band–just me, alone with Jillian, in my bedroom in our Georgetown basement apartment. Jillian shouted all kinds…… Continue reading Own your story

Who are you to…? and other lies

May 29, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

You don’t deserve that and no one’s going to like you or take you seriously.  These are mantras that kept me small, constrained, contained, and tight. Repeated and believed for long enough led to a boundless, bottomless daily depression that permeated every contour of my consciousness and convinced me I would need to learn to…… Continue reading Who are you to…? and other lies

On doubt

April 17, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

Let’s harken back to a simpler time, March 2017 to be exact, the last three paragraphs of this post to be more exact. I told you that I knew self-doubt spirals were coming but that I also trusted my path. It’s all still true. I still trust my path. But the doubt is very real.…… Continue reading On doubt

Feel-good podcasts

Hidden in plain sight

April 7, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

This concept has come up twice for me today in various podcasts I’ve been listening to as I run errands and do chores around the house, so it feels like I need to write about it. What are the things you know or sense about your life that you wish weren’t true? I’m talking about…… Continue reading Hidden in plain sight

Positive self-talk

March 27, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

For the first time ever, I spoke positively to myself WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT IT after an experience that didn’t go the way I wanted it to go today. My friends, they say self-love and personal development is an everlasting journey. And I believe that because I live it. Every day, I make conscious choices to…… Continue reading Positive self-talk

Rest and take care

March 16, 2018 Mallory @ Conscious and DeliberateLeave a comment

What’s funny, sad, and amazing to me all at the same time is that we live in a time and place where we have to be reminded to take care of ourselves. I don’t know who the first person was to use the term “self-care.” I know in 1988, Audre Lorde wrote, “caring for myself…… Continue reading Rest and take care
