Inner Work 160: Feeling and tending to your emotions Jul 29, 2023

Show notes

Do you allow yourself to feel the full range of human emotions - including anger, sadness, grief, loneliness, resentment and also love, excitement, joy, freedom?

This episode of INNER WORK is all about taking an honest look at how you're relating to your own emotions. I'll guide you towards a deeper understanding of which emotions you might be suppressing, maybe because they feel uncomfortable or inconvenient, or because someone growing up told you they were unacceptable and you should not feel them.

I'll walk you through a series of 5 key questions for self-reflection, so you can heal your relationship to your own emotions and increase your capacity to accept, be with, and feel those emotions - whatever they may be.

AWAKENING: Get clear on your Divine Standards (and let go of guilt) Jul 19, 2023

Show notes

Guilt can often show up when you begin setting firmer boundaries, taking care of yourself, and honoring your needs. Especially if you've spent years as a people-pleaser, saying YES to everything and everyone and putting yourself last.

In this episode of AWAKENING, I answer a listener email about how to deal with feelings of guilt that might come up when you set boundaries and follow your truth. Thank you to Sofia for writing in!

This then dovetails into a discussion of getting clear on your Divine Standards - these are your highest intentions for how you want to live and how you want to BE in the world from this day forward. I'll explain how you can create your own Divine Standards and share some examples to get you started.

Inner Work 159: Impostor Syndrome and the Fear of Being Seen Jul 15, 2023

Show notes

Impostor syndrome is a spiritual and psychological phenomenon where you believe that you are a fraud or not good enough. You live in fear that other people are eventually going to discover this about you.

Impostor syndrome can be really heavy to carry, as it lowers your self-esteem and interferes with your ability to follow your Soul's higher calling - because you don't believe you're worthy or good enough.

Here are some other ways in which impostor syndrome can affect you:

makes you feel like a fraud; like others are going to discover this and you'll be exposed as unworthy
makes you second-guess and doubt yourself
makes you undervalue, minimize, and diminish your natural gifts and life experience
keeps you on edge and hypervigilant around other people, especially when you feel you're being watched or have to "perform" in some way
creates self-sabotage, inner conflict, and stuckness when you try to expand or go beyond your comfort zone
stifles your creativity

In this episode of INNER WORK, we'll explore what impostor syndrome really is and how you can begin to soften it.

Thank you for being here! Even though you might not believe me, I'll say it again - you ARE the real deal, you are worthy, and you deserve goodness. Please allow your brilliance to shine through.

AWAKENING: Clearing the interference Jul 13, 2023

Show notes

What's getting in the way of your connection to Divine Source, and to the Divine within yourself? In this impromptu episode of AWAKENING, I talk about identifying and releasing any sources of interference that are blocking your connection to Source, inner divinity, and intuition.

These sources might include:

the voices of your parents/authority figures from your upbringing
the voices of religious rules or admonitions
the voices of former teachers
the general chatter of your culture/society
the voices of the media
the voice of your own inner critic

AWAKENING: You are not broken (and don't need to be fixed) Jul 01, 2023

Show notes

Many of us have been conditioned and taught to believe that we're broken and need to be fixed. You may now be perpetuating this belief through your choices, actions, and your treatment of yourself.

In this episode of AWAKENING, we'll explore where this belief really comes from and how to start believing something else, something much more truthful - that you are NOT broken and don't need to be fixed in any way.

Thank you for being here! And remember: you are NOT broken. You are already whole and lovable, right now, just as you are.
