Day 7!
1. I am choosing to the confident successful version that I no longer fear but rather embrace!! 2. Being scared of the old new me and leaving procrastination behind as a shield because I no longer need it. 3. I WILL catch the thoughts that hold me back and replace them with :" You CAN do this!" and remind myself of this 7 day journey!

@Surina Joubert Gladly will I give feedback! My journey through the last 7 days was immensely powerful even though I had many raw and emotional moments, I would not change a thing!! I learned so much about myself, that prior to this was just outside of my reach. AVA helped me to formulate and analyse something that I was never able to quite do by myself and for that I will be forever grateful! My biggest and best takeaway will be that I CAN fully embrace what I started off with in fear because I now know why I was dreading it and the mindshift the 7 day pattern interupt has gifted me will empower me to move forward in leaps and bounds!!! Thank you a thousand times over!!!!!🩷
Day6
1. I will be working a job that makes me unhappy, dreading the hours. Might have a sticky relationship with my husband and be snappy and irratable all the time. I probably will be hopelessly deep in debt with little to no chance to dig myself free. 2. Relationships, peace of mind and a part of me that is proud to be me. 3. My family and friends - No I am not willing to be this version of me that negatively impacts them!

Yes! I 100% do not want or look forward to being stuck as this 5 year version of myself. I have achieved to much in my life and should see this as my chance to start new and achieve even more!!!!

Today marks a change in Me
I want to share something with you, honestly and simply. Over the coming weeks you're going to notice a slight shift in how AVA is presented. The branding, the look, the way she shows up. I want to be clear about one thing first: who AVA is and what she does stays exactly the same. That doesn't change. The work is the work. What's changing is me... and most definitely SJ! The person who created AVA is slowly going to start showing her true colours in how all of this looks and feels. And here's the honest reason why. I've been on my own journey these last while, and I came to something I couldn't unsee. We're building in an online space where people have to really put themselves out there to be trusted. And you can't do that honestly until you've first been honest with yourself, and made sure that the version you're putting out there is the real one. For a long time, it wasn't fully me. It was a safer, more polished version. The one I thought I was supposed to present. The corporate SJ in her perfect office telling you where to go. Professional...checked. The real me is Grounded. Comfortable and Bold. So today marks the spot where that changes. Slowly, but truly, I'm going to start introducing the real Surina Joubert behind AVA. Not a reinvention. Just the real thing, finally allowed to show. Thank you for being here while I do it. AVA helped me see where I was hiding, and I've realized it was a very visible space...online. So I invite you to go on this discovery process with me in a effort to help you find your true self too! The world is craving for TRUE AUTHENTICITY, and I'm planning to be that first for me, before I try be that for anyone else. Join me! Own the REAL YOU! Just finished my TikTok live.💥🚀 Every Mon, Tue, Thru I'll be live at 7am chatting about all things AVA, Mindset and that week's theme. What BEHAVIOUR are you changing this week to catch up with your new identity?

Congrats! @Surina Joubert , other than launching AVA .2, embrace the real you... the ones who prefer the previously corporate polished "safe" version and who disagree with the new you - are not individuals that you want to share spce with along the journey. I can not wait to see the colourgul changes that you are planning!!💓
Day 5
1. She is someone who has the confendce to be herself and helps others gain that confedence with ease. She no longer tolerates her own procrastination and instead gets things done without even thinking about it. 2. She is able to structure her day and accomplish putting herself out there without any fear of how she will be perceived. 3. I WILL embrace the me that is going to grow in confidence as she is not someone I need to fear but rather someone who will help me reach maturity heights that I can hardly imagine!

@Surina Joubert ... this had me in tears!!!! Thank you!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Digging deeper to unearth the truth about my resistance has been raw but highly empowering!!! From today I will take on any challenge with the confidence that "I've got this!" attitude that my furture self will have naturally.
Day4
1. ...worry about growing into someone stronger and confident. 2. It is costing me so much.... other than the growth I am denying myself, it is also costing me a brighter future!it 3. NO! It is not at all worth it... it never will be and I just took the payoff because it was a safe and familiar situation!

I think the best way to describe it is to compare to ying and yang(or the old native american story of the 2 wolfs)..... we all have a bit of both and I do not like the person I am in my yang zone(dark wolf)... and the fear is there that she will also gain strenght or confident.

Wow.... never thought of the white wolf as the one who would grow in strength! Once you said it, it made so much more sense! I will feed my strong confident version and help starve the dark wolf! Thus I no longer need to fear the dsrk wolf!!! Thanks @Surina Joubert !!!!!
