When we step in to save someone from their lessons, we interfere with their growth and accountability. Challenges teach resilience, wisdom, and self-awareness, but rescuing someone can rob them of those essential lessons and foster dependency. Intervening often depletes our own energy, creates unhealthy boundaries, and disrupts the natural order of consequences meant to guide them. True support means encouraging others to navigate their challenges while trusting the process. Love isn’t about shielding people from discomfort; it’s about empowering them to learn, grow, and take responsibility for their lives.

I've been sitting on this message for a while, and today felt like the right day to share it. As we near the end of 2024, there's often an internal urge to do things differently, to let go of the old and embrace new beginnings. Many of us carry heaviness without even realizing it, and we sometimes burden others with our issues, expecting them to fix things for us. This message is for those who feel heavy or have heavy people around them.

Life is inherently heavy at times, but it's unfair to bleed on others and expect them to be content with our residue. Some burdens are meant to be released, not shared. Healing begins with acknowledgment and self-reliance, not by waiting for someone else to carry our weight. It's crucial to understand that letting go doesn't signify weakness—it's our pathway to freedom.

Finally, as we approach the new year, it's important to realize that the answers we seek lie within us. We need to sit with ourselves, find peace, and, if necessary, seek wise counsel from those who can genuinely support us. My wish is that these words resonate with you and help awaken a dormant place in your heart and mind. If you know someone who might need to hear this, please share the message with them.

Love doesn’t embody control; it thrives in freedom. True love nurtures individuality and respects boundaries, allowing each person to grow in their own way. It is not about possession, manipulation, or coercion, but about trust, respect, and mutual understanding. Love encourages self-expression and empowers both individuals to be their authentic selves without fear of judgment or retribution. It embraces vulnerability and imperfection, knowing that genuine connection is born from acceptance, not domination.

In this episode, I address the power of choosing not to react when people try to provoke us, either intentionally or unintentionally. I emphasize that not every action needs a reaction and that engaging in unnecessary conflicts only drains our energy and disrupts our peace. I encourage everyone to understand the importance of silence and how it can be a powerful response. Silence doesn't mean weakness; it can signify strength and control over one's emotions.

Throughout the episode, I highlight the significance of protecting our peace and urge everyone to reflect before reacting, asking themselves if the conversation will truly lead to greater understanding or just more frustration. Prioritizing peace over conflict, I advocate for walking away from arguments and choosing silence over drama.

Finally, I want to to remind everyone that they are not obligated to engage in every conflict and should feel empowered to guard their peace.

In this episode, I, share my personal journey of evolving faith and the profound impact God's grace has had on my life. I recount how, at times, I hesitated or diverted from God's call due to reluctance or fear, and the subsequent heaviness and conviction I felt. Through my narrative, I emphasize how God requires different parts of us at different stages in our spiritual growth, gently guiding and preparing us step by step.

I highlight how God’s love and grace have been instrumental in my healing journey, especially during my darkest moments. The importance of relying on God rather than just my understanding is underscored, as well as the wisdom and calm that come from being enveloped in faith. Through a verse from 1 Samuel 16:7, I stress that God judges us by our hearts rather than outward appearances. I share personal reflections on forgiveness, the challenges I faced, and how I perceive my role not as an influencer but as a creator driven by God's inspiration.

The episode ends on an encouraging note, reassuring viewers of God's endless love, support, and the bigger plans He has for each of us, urging everyone to embrace His grace and the unique path He has laid out for them.

In this episode of Seasoned Dialogue, we're diving deep into the world of people pleasing. People pleasing often leads to a severe lack of boundaries, self-esteem issues, and a constant need for validation. I know firsthand that changing this behavior is challenging and forces us to reflect on our fears—whether it’s fear of rejection or grappling with low self-esteem.

I recommend strategies like writing down your feelings and setting clear boundaries to begin overcoming these tendencies. It’s also crucial to manage guilt, affirm your self-worth, and limit exposure to negative influences for self-care. It’s equally important to celebrate your progress, no matter how small, in setting boundaries and prioritizing yourself. After all, saying yes to yourself and no to others sometimes is necessary for mental and emotional well-being.

Failing to set boundaries can take a real toll on your health, impacting your lifestyle and overall well-being. Prioritizing self-care isn’t just a buzzword; it’s essential for your happiness. Happiness should always come from within, and it's not your responsibility to make others happy.

People pleasers not only lack boundaries but also feel responsible for others' feelings. This leads to exhaustion and resentment because there's rarely any reciprocation. It's a constant cycle of prioritizing others at the expense of self, which can even strain relationships due to an inability to be authentic or communicate openly.

I host self-love coaching sessions for both men and women to address these deep-rooted issues. In these sessions, we focus on doing the work with intention to foster genuine self-love and personal growth. Remember, your worth isn’t tied to how useful or agreeable you are to others.


I hope this encapsulates the essence of the podcast episode for you!
