Ever notice how the people closest to us can sometimes see us through their own lens, rather than who we truly are? Especially during the holidays...

In this episode, we’re diving into the emotional challenges that surface during the holiday season: projections, misunderstandings, and family dynamics. As you continue to elevate and embrace your authentic self, these moments of judgment can feel heavier than ever.

But what if these experiences weren’t setbacks? What if they were opportunities to reaffirm your growth, clarify your boundaries, and honor your Elevated Self?

I’m sharing how I’ve learned to navigate these moments with grace and intentionality, along with the energetic rituals I rely on to stay grounded, protected, and aligned...no matter how full or triggering the season becomes.

This is your invitation to reframe judgment, handle projections with compassion (for yourself and others), and walk through this season feeling more empowered and steady than ever before.

TOPICS COVERED:

• What projections really are and how they reflect others’ insecurities—not truths about you
• My personal story of navigating projections, including being told “you’ve changed” and “your business is just a hobby”
• The difference between projections and constructive feedback (and why this distinction matters)
• Why misunderstandings can be a divine filter for your relationships
• The rituals I use to protect my energy during triggering moments: before, during, and after interactions
• How honoring your authentic self, even in the face of judgment, creates deeper intimacy and alignment over time

Practical Takeaway:

Reflect on one projection or judgment you’ve experienced recently. Ask yourself:

• What does this moment reveal about their story—not yours?
• How can I stand even taller in my authenticity without taking it personally?
• What boundaries might I need to set or strengthen to protect my energy while still showing up with love?

Choose one ritual from what I shared—whether it’s energetic protection, an intentional pause, or a cleansing practice—that will help you stay aligned this season.
