We are approaching a year since the majority of people have landed in the remote world. As the days pass and I stare at myself through the lens of the Zoom camera I often have a narrative going on in my head. I realized I am spending more time looking at myself than I ever have before.
Yesterday I shared on Instagram the following words:
Before each one of my classes I just stare at myself. Sometimes its just a couple mins sometimes it's 15-20 mins. I don't wear makeup for classes, none of my fancy jewelry and my hair is tied back in a bun. So, it's just purely me.
At times I can go to all the things "wrong" with me. I need a chemical peel, it's definitely time to consider Botox, why has my eye become wonky, this and that part of my body has changed, blah blah blah... But on great (more and more) days I can say damn I have come a long way, I can actually look myself in the eyes and say "you have come a long fucking way, you look perfect and it sure is not bad for 40"
An interesting thing followed. I joined a conference call and the conversation lead to how we look on camera. This is when I learned you could add a filter on Zoom. I woke this morning still thinking about this so I recorded this video diving a bit deeper into this topic.
My offer to you is, what are you saying to yourself when you are looking at yourself? What parts of that narrative may need to change a bit?
