Burning Brightly

Have you ever felt like you had a devil on one shoulder, constantly making trouble for you while you try to pursue your dreams?

Well, that's not far off from the truth. Dani Fake is a former therapist and depth life coach who teaches about "parts work"; in other words, how and why our personalities are made up of different "parts".

This episode is for anyone who struggles with an inner critic, imposter syndrome, shame spiraling or a cranky inner child. In other words, everyone! Understanding parts work can be the key to unlocking the emotional drama that comes up whenever we try to build businesses.

I promise, this is going to blow your mind!

Do you know what the greatest gift you've ever been given is? It's the power to choose.

You can choose to be kind or cruel, to love or harm, to build or destroy, to consume or create and countless other choices we face every single day.

But because our agency is one of our greatest choices, it's also a huge responsibility to choose wisely.

In this episode we'll explore the power of this choice, better understand how we (sometimes unwittingly) relinquish this power and how to best use it in our businesses.

Human beings are amazing! They are multi-faceted, complex and require a lot of care. In fact, most of us regularly neglect at least one of these aspects of self-care and we don't even realize it.

After talking to lots of moms, and trying to balance my own self care with motherhood and business for many years, I developed this pentagon as a way of diagramming how essential it is that we cover ALL aspects of care that our bodies, minds and souls need. I hope it helps YOU also acknowledge how important each of these facets is in your life!

Sure, we know vegetables are good for us, but sometimes it's a struggle to incorporate them into our lives on a regular basis. Boundaries can be the same way! Today we're discussing what boundaries are, why we need them, how to communicate them and how to enforce them when our boundaries get crossed.

We'll even discuss how Christ himself taught us about boundaries and how boundaries are a Christian, eternal principle. Understanding and implementing boundaries is one of the best paths to healthy, whole relationships with our loved ones, as well as thriving self-respect.

The concept of justification is equal parts fascinating and terrifying. When our brains confront the potential for danger or major upheaval, especially the possibility of loss, it does everything in its power to maintain the status quo, even justifying really terrible behaviors.

We sometimes justify abusive or damaging behavior from our loved ones because we don't want to risk losing the relationship, but where justification is really insidious is with our OWN negative behaviors. We hold ourselves back or justify self-destructive actions because we assume the alternative would be just too difficult (or worse, because we don't think we deserve any better).

Let's learn how to combat this phenomenon and its potentially catastrophic results!

Our first inclination when we begin to manage our brains is to simply get rid of the thoughts that aren't serving us; we call this "thought swapping"! The problem with thought swapping is that it's not actually the thought that's the problem... it's the reason behind the thought.

Our brains send us messages for a purpose and it's usually to help us avoid pain or discomfort. If we can discover what our brain is trying to avoid, then we don't have to swap out the problematic thoughts. We can acknowledge our brain's concern, and still move forward anyway!

We know that believing in our business is essential if we want it to succeed and grow. But if you're at the beginning of your entrepreneurial journey, you might be wondering how to believe in something that doesn't yet exist!

That's what today's episode is all about. I'll teach you how to create your business in the spiritual realm, before we ever take a single step towards creating it. And even if you're already farther along on your business building adventure, this step is critical for ensuring you know the end from the beginning.

When we think about building a business, we usually think of all the tactical or technical skills we'll need to learn, like building a website, or learning sales or marketing.

And while these skills are definitely important, it's the work of managing and feeling our emotions that will ensure whether or not we succeed or fail.

Why are emotions so important? Because our emotions drive EVERYTHING we do.

Yes, everything.

Today we're going to learn how to process what we're feeling and how to learn from the hard or sticky stuff we'll inevitably go through.

None of us want to be guilty of pride; puffing ourselves up and acting better than other people is just yucky.

But could we be guilty of the other side of pride? The one where we think self-criticism is humility but it's still just a focus on ourselves?

Satan wants to trip up God's daughters and distract us from our great purpose, and one of the ways I see him do this over and over again is by confusing humility for self-hatred.

Join me in this week's episode where we get clear on what true humility looks like, how to escape from this self-loathing trap and how to feel more of God's love for ourselves.
