Stepping Out of my Comfort Zone

Stepping Out Of My Comfort Zone - Chasing Cinderella


I'm all about the phrase New Year New Me, but not just when it comes to keeping my resolutions. I think you should always try to improve yourself, in all areas of your life. For me, this year I am improving myself by stepping out of my comfort zone more often! 

Stepping out of my comfort zone isn't easy for me (or I'm sure for anyone, it's called a comfort zone for a reason)! Being the introvert that I am, I'm super content with the way things are in my life. But honestly, who wants to live life just being content?! Not me! So, I've decided to step out of my comfort zone, in more ways than one!

My Wardrobe
If you know me, or have been following me for a while, you know I mostly only wear jeans. They are what I'm most comfortable in (hello, they help hold in the belly). But I want to branch out with my wardrobe and try different things. This skirt is definitely more on the wild side for me, but I styled it in a way that still made me feel comfortable, and I actually ended up loving it!

Instagram Stories
I have been trying more to actually talk and interact with y'all on Instagram Stories. To be completely transparent, I am not the best talker. I don't articulate very well, I stumble over my words, my mind blanks, and I just feel super awkward. But practice makes perfect, right? My goal is to eventually be able to come face-to-screen with y'all, and just chat!

Leave the House More
I am a huge homebody, and would be super content staying home all day, every day, and just sit on the couch watching Netflix with Cab and the pups! I am going to try and make it a point to get out of the house more often! Whether it be to walk the dogs, to go on date night, or even to a workout class, I want to leave my safe bubble (our home), and interact with other people!

Cook Dinner More Often
Confession: I am not comfortable in the kitchen! I do enjoy baking every once in a while (and I'm pretty good at it, not gonna lie), but when it comes to cooking actual meals, I leave that to Cab. But, sticking with the theme, I am going to start cooking dinner more (maybe start at once a week lol)! I actually made this low carb dip stuff for dinner last night and it was BOMB!
