PhD in Being Me

Hi! My name is Bradlee and I welcome you to PhD in Being Me!

I am a gentle, sensitive and deeply caring person. I’ve spent a lot of time trying to change myself instead of loving and accepting myself, and I’ve done myself a big disservice as a result. I decided a few years ago to become an expert on everything about me, including my needs, fears and dreams. I thought it would be cool to work on getting a PhD in being myself instead of putting so much energy in trying to be different than I am.

This blog is all about my journey in earning a PhD in Being Me. You can join me as I write about learning to treat myself with more care, compassion, patience and acceptance, and how to be with my most uncomfortable emotions.

My intention with this site is to be vulnerable and open about what I’ve learned to help you in the most uplifting, heartfelt, honest and loving ways. I honor you and your journey through life. With every word you read on this site, may you be blessed with so much inspiration, clarity, ease, peace and love.

I invite you to subscribe to PhD In Being Me so you can get emails about each new post I write. May they inspire and uplift you.

Your email address will never be shared and you can unsubscribe at any time.

At first, I tried to be perfect and to erase all non-perfect parts of me. Now I see that I am perfect, with all of my ups and downs, every negative thought, every pound gained or lost, every moment of extreme fatigue and with every kindness I give to myself and others. May we all be liberated to see the perfection that we are no matter where we are in life or how much we struggle.
