Here’s lots of feet picture for you! I spend over 10 hours a week barefoot on the mats training #MMA. I keep my #feet neat and pedicured… not everyone does the same.
One of my peers at the gym often has long toenails and sheds dead skin on the mats. I’ve been scratched by his toenails before, and today I noticed a wave of disgust when a piece of his dead skin stuck to my foot.
Here’s my edge: part of me wants to avoid the discomfort and stay quiet, not risk hurting his feelings. Another part of me wonders if the more loving act is to reveal my experience honestly, so he has the chance to be aware of the impact his hygiene has on others.
For now I’m just practicing being with the conflict inside. Telling the truth with kindness matters to me…
I’ll keep you posted as the story evolves… In the meantime… here’s a picture of my sexy pedicure.
✨ How do you navigate moments when you feel torn between protecting someone’s feelings and revealing your truth?
