Welcome to episode 70 where we explore how detachment plays a big part in being able to feel and express genuine empathy to others.

In this episode, we take a look at how allowing ourselves to grieve and let go of desired outcomes, we can then detach and allow others to have their own experience. Without detachment, it can often be difficult to express true understanding, since our own thoughts and feelings are mixed up in it.

Key Elements:

• Discuss the meaning of loving detachment, and why it matters in relationships.
• Process ways allowing feelings is an important part of learning to let go.
• Explore some steps to take to begin the process of loving detachment.

There are two ways to be.

One is at war with reality

and the other is

at peace.

- Byron Katie

Resources:

I would love to hear your questions about empowerment and personal growth, as I put together Q & &A episodes for the near future. Just send me an email or message me on Instagram or Facebook. I look forward to hearing from you!

Welcome to episode 69 where we dive into the concept of how to give empathy for ourselves, how powerful it is in creating lasting change, and the foundation of being able to express empathy to others. Genuinely.

In this episode, we look into the idea of how combining empathy for self and adding in some self-compassion, how we can help ourselves heal old wounds, find grace while still taking responsibility for our lives, and why this can be hard sometimes to open up to.

Key Elements:

• Describe how combining understanding yourself with loving compassion can help you heal.
• Talk about how integral this is to feeling grounded and confident.
• Walk through two simple yet powerful practices you can begin using right away.

"Powerful is our need to be known,

really known by ourselves and others,

even if only for a moment."

― Carl Rogers

• Discuss how empathy is often confused with sympathy.
• Describe the different obstacles that we see in the way of expressing empathy.
• Talk about how empathy takes introspection, healing on the inside first, and practice.

"Empathy is connection;

Welcome to episode 67 where we look at how anxiety can actually keep us from feeling difficult things we don't want to explore.

In this episode, we look at how being "up in our head" can be a way of avoidance…of feeling feelings, expressing feelings, and doing necessary grief work. Using experiential exercises to get you started with awareness, Mary helps you begin to focus on how emotionally connected with you are with yourself.

Key Elements:

• Discuss the reasons why some people trend more toward anxiety.
• Explore how early experiences and trauma itself impact our ability to grieve.
• Discover how taking small steps right now can begin the journey back to feeling whole.

"We destroy ourselves when we stop feeling.

If you bury your feelings within you,

you become a graveyard."

Welcome to episode 66 where we explore the connection to having poor boundaries and having anxiety and stress.

In this episode, we identify why when we struggle with saying no, asking for what we need, confronting reality and risking rejection, we may end up anxious and angry, not being able to take care of what we need to get done, or take care of what we want.

Key Elements:

• Discuss external vs internal boundaries, and why both are important to reduce anxiety.
• Explore how not having boundaries can cause you to lose yourself in others.
• Talk about the impacts on our stress level, our relationships and our health.

"Nothing diminishes anxiety

faster than action."
