e13: ON YOUR OWN BUT NOT ALONE featuring Abbie Shaw | Life Explorer

Jason Lebowitz with Abbie Shaw Season 1 Episode 13

The restricted mind becomes a limiting mind. Possibilities are always a reach away. Fear is the only variable. Limitless is how I would describe Abbie Shaw. This conversation was planned for upcoming July, but her six-month excursion out of the country was cut short. 

 

“Life really can be what you want it to be. I’ve struggled a lot with anxiety and depression. I often feel lost and without purpose. To the point it tears apart my soul from the inside, out. I lose myself. Traveling is my antidepressant. It is my purpose.” 

 

These words posted before leaving for her trip got me emotional. At the end of our podcast I got emotional. She is living her best life, free of restraint. She didn’t hold back, traveling deep below the surface into vulnerability. Ironically, she just became a Divemaster. 

 

We all want to find that someone special. But then realize being alone is all we know. So, we compromise the possibility of a true relationship advancing with that someone special because we fear the unknown. We fear losing our independence. We fear true connection. We fear ourselves. So we continue the cycle and run from ourselves. Until we don’t. On your own but not alone.
