Today I speak to Jackie of Queenrise.com  She is an Empowerment Self Defense for Women and Teens coach.  I apologize for the dead air at the beginning before Jackie came on, some editing software did not work at the time... Enjoy its all part of being organic podcast and going with the flow my friends!

Jackie reminds us that we are in charge of our bodies and we know we already know this, but have you embodied that yet?  I love how she incorporates not only physical defense strategies but also teaches you that your body is yours and you are the QUEEN of it you are in charge and you get to decide what you want to do.

I talk to her about what she gives her clients and she reminds us that self defense is a focus on paying attention to what is scary, trusting our intuition or "that voice" that tells us we may be in danger.  Lets strip away all the judgements we give ourselves based on outside expectations.  

One of the things that stood our when talking to Jackie is when she mentioned that "Safe" is a low bar to set for women, she doesnt just want us to feel safe, she wants us to thrive to feel worthy of being pampered, spoiled of everything that gives us joy!  Self defense is just a piece of that puzzle.

We are all Queens and anything less than that does not fit into the picture!

Love this all so much!  When you think about it, we all try to be something for someone, we go where they want to go, we shave our legs for a date, we do our hair...because its a little expected, but are you doing this for the date or for YOU?  Think about it.
