Quotes:

“You were conditioned when you're growing up to shame yourself into being better or more lovable. And that just keeps you in a loop of never enoughness.”

“What's really important in this work is not shaming yourself, and not trying to use that as some kind of twisted motivation to get yourself to be better because it doesn't actually allow you to grow and progress and move forward…”

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate.”  - Carl Jung

95% of your brain's functioning is unconscious…

While you feel like your conscious mind is in the driver's seat, your subconscious is actually leading the way.

That’s where Shadow Work comes in. Shadow Work is about lifting the veil and seeing all the ways your past and inner world create the life around you. It's about understanding unconscious motivations within your mind to behave the way you do.

Tune into today's episode to break patterns, uncover your shadow, and feel empowered.

If you tend to over-extend yourself, say yes when you want to say no, or avoid speaking up for your needs… You likely need more boundaries in place.

Easier said than done, as setting boundaries can be extremely confronting. It brings up all the fears of being left behind, misunderstood and judged.

That’s why I made an entire juicy podcast episode to explore the intricacies of boundary setting.

In this week's episode, Boundary Identification & Setting (Without Guilt), I go into the following and more…

• Why you may struggle to set boundaries in the first place
• How to identify which boundaries you need in your life
• Working through guilt when it comes to setting boundaries
• Walls VS boundaries - where does flexibility come into play regarding boundary setting?
• How to set boundaries and drop the guilt

Tune into this episode to feel more spacious, energized and confident through the practice of setting boundaries comfortably. 

Highlights:

(07:24)  Why boundaries may feel hard to set in the first place

(10:24) What happens when you don't set boundaries

(12:30) How to begin setting boundaries when you weren’t modelled healthy boundaries growing up

(14:23) Moving through guilt, feeling safe, and setting boundaries

(15:14) Releasing Guilt: A Journey and Progression

Being single is a gift, yet many people fear it or try to get into relationships as quickly as possible. 

This episode is for you if...

• You’ve ever felt like being single makes you less than.
• You constantly wonder when you will meet your man or partner.
• You fear being alone or feel envious of those in a relationship. 
• You either jump from relationship to relationship, never really pre-qualifying your people, OR you avoid relationships and are hyper-independent (while still longing for a relationship, but don’t try).
• Part of you feels like a relationship would make you happy, or perhaps you even have a hidden fantasy that someone will ‘save’ you in some respect.

If you can’t embrace being single, you likely aren’t ready for a healthy, conscious relationship. To overcome co-dependency, we must learn how to be sovereign. 

In this episode, we are talking about how to embrace being single and make the most out of this time. You’ll learn how this season of your life can help you create your dream life and prepare for a potential future relationship.

 Listen to step into your empowerment and reclaim your right to be happy and fulfilled, no matter what.

Many people have the experience of getting wrapped up in a new relationship. It’s fun and exciting. For a while, you feel like everything is right in the world. 

After some time, you may wake up to the realization that part of you has been lost. You may struggle to identify your dreams, desires and needs and wonder how you came to this place. 

Codependency is why this is happening. While it’s healthy to lean on your partner from time to time, abandoning yourself in the process is not ideal. If you struggle with playing the role of the caregiver, you know this dance all too well. Most of us have lost pieces of ourselves in a relationship; it can happen to anybody.

This episode uncovers why we tend to lose ourselves, where codependency originates from, why it's essential to maintain individuation in relationships, and how a conscious relationship works.

Tune in to this episode and discover how to return to yourself whether you're in a relationship.

Highlights:

(002:02) All About the ‘Alchemy’ Program

(06:42) The root of codependency

(10:25) The desire to be saved
