37. What It Means To Be Free with Tara Morris
Photographer and yoga teacher Tara Morris sits down for one of the most honest conversations about what it actually means to be free; not when you're "perfect," but right now, exactly as you are.
Fresh from losing her mother after 25 years of Parkinson's & navigating her own profound grief, Tara speaks with raw honesty about being "face down in the arena" while still somehow radiating the kind of energy that makes you want to lean into life harder.
As an Enneagram 7, she's learned that you can't just run from the hard feelings, sometimes you have to turn toward them.
We explore the difference between the stories we tell ourselves, particularly about our bodies and the actual experience of living in them.
Tara talks shares why she practices 'granular gratitude' for every single thing her body can do.
This is about more than body acceptance, it's about the courage to stop waiting for permission to live fully in the skin you're in.
Key Themes:
What "being free in your body" actually means (and it's not what you think)Why we numb instead of feel and what's on the other side of that choiceThe different understandings of powerHow grief and gratitude can exist in the same momentWhy your body stories are not the truthIf this conversation reminded you that you're already worthy of love exactly as you are, we'd love if you'd share it with someone who needs that reminder too.
