Self-Awareness Is Your Superpower

08/02/2021


    Self awareness is having a clear understanding of the entirety of oneself; understanding one’s strengths and weaknesses, one’s motivations and desires, beliefs and dreams. Self awareness gives us insight into ourselves, as well as how others see us, and how we see others. It reveals our biases and attitudes, helping us to craft our actions in ways that we would like to go and grow.
    The self-aware person is able to move forward in life purposefully. Once we see ourselves clearly, we can build on our identified strengths. We will become aware of conflicts between our thinking/believing and our living. We can understand our emotions and how they arise and influence our interactions and decision making. 
    I worked with a client once who, as an introvert, preferred to work alone. He was unsuccessful at starting a new venture. Through coaching, he came to see that his past successes had always come while working with a partner who had a different skillset that complemented his own. After realizing this, he was able to move forward. He found a partner with the appropriate skillset and together (but often working separately) they were able to build upon their accomplishments.
    Self awareness provides a springboard to success in our work and in our relationships. The self aware person will have many more strategies for understanding their loved ones, resolving conflicts, and building meaningful and lasting relationships.
    There are many tools that can help you on your journey to self awareness. Working with a coach is a powerfully effective tool. Set up a consultation with me to begin your journey and reap the benefits of seeing yourself clearly.

Hello Friends!

Hi, my name is Melissa Ebken, and I'm so glad you found your way here. 

I am at home in the difficult spaces of peoples’ lives, willing to listen and to support those who work to grow themselves. I am a trained coach and have consulted with churches in conflict. Not your stereotypical minister, I embrace the Gospel with joy and laughter as I seek to help those around me grow in faith and understanding, always striving to leave people better than they came. An agent of wholeness, I create a safe space for people, especially those who have been marginalized, where they can understand how ridiculously loved and valued they are by God/Higher Power/Spirit, and to experience the difference that makes in life. 

I started the Pursuing Uncomfortable Podcast to share the stories of people who have faced life's most difficult challenges, to inspire you to lean into and overcome your own. It's helpful to know that you're not alone in your struggles and to see how others have navigated similar circumstances. You can listen to it here.
