Chapter 1
The Edit Audit is a short, guided experience to help you notice the places where you may have been quietly editing yourself.
Not because anything is wrong with you.
And not because every compromise, change or adjustment means you've somehow lost yourself.
We all change.
We grow out of things. We adapt. We make decisions that make sense for the life we're living.
But sometimes something else happens.
We stop saying what we think.
We say we don’t mind when actually we do.
We become easier. Quieter. More reasonable.
We think about everybody else’s reaction before we’ve even worked out our own.
And after a while, some of those adjustments can become so normal that we stop noticing we're making them.
That's what we're looking at here.
Not to blame anyone.
Not to blow your life up.
And not to come away with a perfect answer about who you're supposed to be.
Where have I been editing myself — and what happens when I give myself enough space to hear my own answer?
Just to start noticing.That’s where we’ll begin.
