There’s no need to prove yourself…to anyone. Ever. It doesn't make you more or less valuable.

Because you inherently have value, and once you learn how to respect that, you won’t let anyone else devalue what you know is worthy of respect, love, and consideration.

This episode is about just that. In this episode, Romika shares: 

• How to explore our formative beliefs about our worth and inherent value
• Why you need to stop trying to manage other peoples’ responses to you
• Where beliefs come from
• How to clarify your boundaries and communicate them to others and to yourself 
• Communicating your clear boundaries just one time
• and more!

This is the 4th part of our Rebellion series, and it's all about why you may feel unhappy to help others.

If you’ve ever felt unhappy to help someone, it’s probably because you haven’t waited until these 3 things happen first before you offer your assistance.

If you feel like when you try to help others they transfer their failures onto you, or you are met with resistance, or they tend to ask for help for an indefinite amount of time - this episode is for you.

In this episode, Romika shares the three things she waits for before providing her help: 

• ​How to wait for others to ask for help
• ​How to wait until others can clarify the help they need
• ​How to wait until others no longer have the expectation of perfection

Romika believes that if you choose to wait for these three things to happen before offering your assistance, you’ll find yourself way happier to help more people.

This is the 3rd part of our Rebellion Series!

This episode is all about fear. Romika shares that she does not believe it is possible to live without fear, but we can all learn how to coexist with it as an every day part of our lives without giving it the power to make our decisions.

Fear informs you, it doesn't have the power to decide your next step. You do.

In this episode, you will hear:

• what fear is, and why it is important
• why we have allowed fear to inform our decisions in the past and present
• how to align your decisions to your values, not your fears

• Learn a practice that will help you catastrophize the worst case scenario well
• when to zoom out vs. zoom in

and more!

This episode is heavy. This is part 2 of the Rebellion Series, and Romika goes into detail about her struggles with processing through her own survivor’s guilt in hopes to help you process through your own. 

This is an important conversation because if guilt is left unresolved and unprocessed in a healthy way, guilt is the fastest track to shame, and you are bound to repeat the cycles you were desperate to heal (or rebel) from when you choose to operate out of shame. 

This episode discusses:

• How to understand survivor's guilt 
• Why guilt is helpful and important to feel 
• How to identify your own values and operate from them
• How to label accurately
•
