Raising Love

In this episode I want to talk about something that has been a part of my life, and of me, for well over 30 years. 

This is something that was all consuming. It took over every part of my life and it became so ingrained into every part of my being that I did it without ever questioning it. 

Because I didn’t know there was another way to be. 

The hatred I had for myself and my body led me down a very destructive path. And food was my weapon of choice for mass destruction. I used it to punish myself over and over again for not being skinny, for not being pretty, for not being happy, for not being loveable, for not being worthy, for not being enough.

Every part of who I was was not enough. 

And those destructive thoughts always led me to the pantry. To the fridge to find whatever sweet, fatty disgusting food I could use to punish and gorge myself, and numb myself.

Numb myself to how I really felt about myself and my life. I had no other way of release. There as no one to talk to about how I was really feeling and the constant reminders from my parents that I wasn’t good enough kept me going back to kitchen time and time again.

I want to share with you a concept that I have had great success with. 

If you don’t already know, I absolutely despised myself for most of my life. Probably from the time I became a teenager. Maybe even a bit before that there was a level of hatred that hadn’t quite consumed me yet. 

I hated myself, my body, my life, my family. All of it. 

I wanted to be someone else so bad.

And as I grew older and the teenage years took hold of me, the hatred and the loathing filtered into every part of my life and every part of my being. 

It didn’t matter what I did, I did it with a full blown sense of hatred. 

I ate, I hated. I tried to have fun, I hated. I tried to workout, I hated. I went to school, I hated. I hung out with my friends, I hated. I spoke, I hated. I got angry, I hated. 

The hate was everywhere. I couldn’t escape it. 

So, for years that was all I was. Hate. For every single inch of myself and my life there was hate. 

It became my normal. It became who I was. It was how I functioned.

This episode is all about doing something that we, as women, are never really taught to do. That we get told off for doing. That we are shamed for doing. And, basically made to feel as though we are not allowed to do any of these things because we must always accept everything that is told to us.

But what if we refused to believe and accept all of that? What would that make us as women?

Where would we be then?

Is it really ok for us to question, challenge, confront and change EVERYTHING that has ever been told to us? That has been handed down to us from one generation to the next. That has filled our minds with lie after lie after lie. 

Because, as women, we have been fed way too many lies about how we are supposed to be. How we are supposed to look and live. 

I believed the lie for almost 40 years that I was supposed to look like the skinny woman who ate perfectly, workout all the time, dressed to show off her amazing body and have the dream life of the dream job, with the dream man and the dream family living in the dream house. 

That there was a particular mould I was supposed to squeeze myself into, and if I didn’t then I was not worthy of living. I was shunned for being fat, I was shunned for not having the right clothes, the right life, a boyfriend.

There is such a long list of things we must be as a woman. And as we move through life we need to tick them off as we get them, and if we don’t get them then there clearly must be something wrong with us.

as woman I believe our lives can be set out for us. We are given a set of rules and obligations to live by and if we deviate from those, then there must be something wrong with us. We are given a mould at birth that we all must try to fit into, along with a set of rules for living the life of a woman. 

If we don’t fit into the mould then we couldn’t possibly live in society and function properly. We are outcasted as a rule-breaker or the black sheep of the family. Or we must have issues that no body knows how to deal with (or wants to), we must be losing our minds to want to be anything other than what we have been told we must be.

And, this mould? Who the hell designed it? Who decided that every single one of us must be this particular woman? Who wrote the rules?

Isn’t it exhausting trying to bend and break ourselves to fit in it?

I know I’m exhausted.

It was through my work with LOVE body that the true realisation of what was possible filled me up with immense joy and fear. 

I was both happy and afraid of what was to come. I didn’t know HOW I was going to create that change in me because I had tried before. Many, many times. 

And, I failed many, many times. 

So, why was this time going to be any different? Why would I actually be able to become the person I had always dreamed I’d be?

Your stories are a part of you whether they hold truth or not. 

It’s those words you have on repeat that determine how you live your life. 

But what if you could re-write those words? Turn them into your NEW story?

I can honestly tell you that this IS possible.

On this podcast, I want to talk to you about your NOW story. 

It is something we all have. 

The constant stories playing inside your mind over and over again. 

It’s that story you keep telling yourself about why you can’t…

You can’t lose weight, you can’t get a better job, you can’t have a relationship, you can’t have a great life, you can’t ever have any money…

There’s a whole long list of them, swirling around your mind keeping you from ”I CAN”.

Where do these stories come from and why do we hold onto them so tightly?

You have probably heard this term a lot over the last few years. Living consciously. 

But what does it mean exactly and why should you be doing it?

See your life is ruled by two parts of you. Your conscious thoughts, attitudes, choices, behaviours etc. and your subconscious thoughts, attitudes, choices, behaviours etc.

These two can be at odds a lot of the time because what sits within your subconscious is what really runs the show. Your thoughts, choices, attitudes and behaviours on a day-to-day level, on a minute-by-minute level, come from this place. 

They are what you have ALREADY learnt and felt from moments in your past that get stored into your subconscious. 

So when a similar situation occurs to the one you have already experienced, your mind dives deep into your subconscious for a memory, a feeling, a familiarity, comfort, evidence, guidance as to how to proceed next. 

And, then that’s how you behave. Whether the situation right in front of you needed that or not. Very rarely do we act in the moment from that moment. No! We act from our past. From all of the stuff, we have stored in our subconscious. 

That drives WHO we are and HOW we behave. 

But what if you were to begin acting from your conscious mind?

As a woman who has been on this beautiful earth for more than 40 years, I have seen how pretty much anything to do with a woman is either dismissed, made fun of or rejected. 

A woman simply cannot be a woman. She must take on the characteristics of a man in order for her to feel as though she is useful and valuable.

And it’s the crazy, patriarchal way of living that has seen women forget that there is so much infinite wisdom inside of us. Gifted to us by our ancestors, by the divine, by god or whoever you believe in. We carry this wisdom inside of us and it’s there at any time we need it.  

But how do we ask for it? How do we receive it? How do we even begin to listen to ourselves again?

In this episode of the Raising Love Podcast, I will talk with you about The Woman's Way. An introduction to you as a woman.

For most of us who have struggled with ourselves and our bodies for much of our life, what you probably believe wholeheartedly as being the number one issue about yourself; is your weight. 

But your weight is only a symptom. A symptom of what is going on inside of you. Inside your mind and inside your body. As diet after diet gave you hope that this one was finally it. As each diet made promises you totally fell for and gave you guarantees your dream body was within reach but only after you consume your weight in cabbage for the entire week.

So gross.

Listen now to discover how you can think differently about yourself and raise love even more inside that beautiful body of yours.
