Are you owning it?
Do you know what your it is?
It is the question you want to ask your spouse but always hold back on.
It is the lifestyle you want to create for yourself but always override with your conservative parental inside voice.
It is the business idea or career you want but don’t know how to start.
We continue to put it off, thinking we need to be ready. What we really need is to own it, or at least to begin to do so. Being ready to go for it is directly proportional to my willingness to own it.

Own it.
So here I am, owning it. Here’s me, back at the CBC, fourteen years later, but now I lead mindfulness classes for CBC staff - many of whom are former colleagues.
I’ve found my it: helping you find, own and create yours.
