What lens do you use for the stories you tell about yourself? Is it a hopeful one? Ambitious? Deficit-laden? My thinking on our stories got a reboot this past weekend thanks to a call from a dear friend, Marielle. I am not talking about the stories we use when we introduce ourselves for the first time nor the ones we rely on when a loved one calls for a full update on a recent drama. I am talking about the stories we tell ourselves. The quiet ones that we may never say out loud. Have you ever stopped to listen to the through line of that story? Let alone questioned its validity?
