SHE SPEAKS SHE HEALS Podcast with Doctor Shannon

By asking yourself, "How am I different?"

By knowing the truth about you so you can live in freedom with you. That's how! Yesterday's podcast episode (You Need "Different") got me thinking about this very important question. As well as a few "different" things…

Today's S.O.L. Story is my personal experience that led me to ask, and hopefully answer, some of your questions as well.

I asked myself how I need different.

I also asked how I'm different, and what's necessary for me to allow my unique differences to be fully expressed in my life.

You can too...

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

Write out what makes you different? Unique? Lovable? Valuable?

What would make your life feel the same (but in a "different") way?

Stand in front of the mirror and read them out loud to yourself.

Are you ready to share YOU and YOUR S.O.L. STORY?

I'd LOVE to connect with you, and celebrate YOU and your S.O.L.

"You need different"…this is what one of my friends told another.

She was explaining how something was about to change in her life, and she was scared.

It made me think about how often we crave something new, but resist it. All while distracting ourselves with the notion that we must do this or that to "improve."

If this is you today, my dear.

Stop.

You don't need to improve.

You don't need better.

Nor do you need the SAME.

Perhaps you're addicted to "SAME" when what you really need is "DIFFERENT."

If you desire something different, then you must be willing to do something different. Become different. And not simply to BE DIFFERENT.

You already ARE different.

Have you ever thought about that?

Stop trying to STOP DIFFERENT.

When you do, you hinder your growth. Your development.

You interfere with your natural flow of living life.

You interrupt yourself.

You distract yourself.

You limit yourself.

Are you ready for something different? Something new?

Then remember this…

You.

Need.

Different.

You NEED different…

Different is beautiful.

You are beautiful.

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

Where in your life do you desire something different, but you feel scared?

Do ONE thing different, or ONE different thing, today and see what happens.

Yes, different IS beautiful.

Are you ready to share YOU and YOUR S.O.L. STORY?

It's this little, powerful, profound thing called "R.E.S.P.E.C.T."

Today's S.O.L. Story was inspired by several of my clients this week — both men and women. This topic of respect came up. Specifically in the context of "self respect."

Yesterday we spoke about the Art Of BEING After Betrayal (EPISODE 380). And that your BEING will allow healing from the feeling of betrayal.

Restoring faith and trust is vital.

One way to do this is by respecting yourself, my dear.

Do you respect yourself? (This is the Bazillion Dollar question…)

When I think of respect, I think about "showing respect."

How do we do this?

1. SHOW UP.

Show up for yourself.

Physically.

Mentally.

Spiritually.

Emotionally.

Financially.

Are you showing up?

Are you showing up out of respect for yourself?

And why are you showing up?

2. FOLLOW UP.

It's how you're showing up for yourself.

We're taught how to respect others.

We're taught the rules and expectations.

BUT…

We're usually not taught a whole lot about self-respect.

BUT...

YOU must do this for YOURSELF.

Establish your ground rules — what's acceptable and unacceptable.

This is based on what you desire.

What are the rules that you've set for yourself?

What are your rules? Your expectations? For yourself and others?

People will show you respect how YOU show YOURSELF respect.

Or as I call it, The Diamond Rule — people will treat us the we treat ourselves.

How are you treating yourself?

I was also asked the difference between love and respect, as well as self-esteem and self confidence.

This is what I told her…

Love is unconditional.

Respect is conditional.

What conditions have you set up for showing yourself respect? For teaching others the respect you expect?

Respect is a result of abilities, qualities, or achievements.

Like I said, it's not simply showing up. It's about how you're showing up.

And what you do when you show up.

Self-esteem is based on your value. This is unconditional.

It's also based on your abilities. This is the conditional part.

One of them being your ability to RESPECT YOURSELF.

Self-confidence is based on your beliefs (trust, belief, faith.)

It kind of sounds like what we talked about yesterday when we spoke about hope, huh?

It's also a feeling that comes from appreciating your own abilities or capabilities.

It starts with unconditionally loving yourself because you know your value.

Because you love yourself, you show up.

If you respect yourself, my dear, you WILL be able to confidently show up with RESPECT — out of respect and IN respect for yourself.

This will build upon your value, AND develop your self-esteem and confidence.

Show up. Follow up.

Then follow through.

This will create your breakthrough.

Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage with yourself.)

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

How are you showing up for yourself?

How are you following up and through for yourself?

Take one action today to show yourself a little (a lot of) RESPECT.

Are you ready to share YOU and YOUR S.O.L. STORY?

I'd LOVE to connect with you, and celebrate YOU and your S.O.L.

Betrayal. What is it? And what to do about it…

From my own experiences, it's one of the most horrific feelings. The feeling of betrayal!

When I looked up the technical definition of "betrayal," I found the word: "faithlessness."

Betrayal erodes trust and faith.

Did you know that "faith is the substance of that which we hope for?"

So…

Restoring HOPE restores both faith and trust.

How?

You must…

1. BE…

How are YOU being to YOU?

2. Be forgiving.

3. Be hopeful.

- Believe.

The antidote to the "unbelievable" is your belief.

- Desire.

- Trust.

Be faithful.

BE FREE.

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

Grab a couple pieces of paper and a pen.

Write out how you've been betrayed.

How have you been betrayed? Write out every single detail.

Then put a big line through it and write: I forgive you, and I forgive me. I now release you, and I now release me.

Fold up your paper.

Burn it, chop it into small pieces, or flush it…whatever you choose to do.

Do it today.

When you do. Take a deep breath, and allow whatever it is that you put on that paper to go...release it with a lightness and love that'll allow your heart and soul to be free.

Congratulations! I'm so proud of you...

I'd LOVE to connect with you, and celebrate YOU and your S.O.L.

Are you an interrupter? Or am I the only one?

I've struggled with this my entire life. Part of it has to do with the fact I get so excited. I love to talk, and sometimes it feels as though I can't even help but interrupt myself and others.

HOWEVER…it IS possible.

I'm a work in progress on this topic, but this is what's helped me.

LISTEN to your heart. Then listen with your heart.

Where in your life are you interrupting yourself?

Stay focused on ONE thing at a time.

Is impatience causing you to stop yourself?

It's time to stop suffering from this. Remember, suffering is a choice.

It's optional.

If you no longer choose to suffer from interrupting yourself or others, try the following...

1. Pause. Take a deep breath of inspiration.

2. Focus on your expected outcome.

Get clear on this. Oftentimes interruptions are simply distractions. Being very clear about what you're focusing on will help minimize distractions and interruptions.

Move straight ahead. One step at a time. One sip at a time.

3. Listen to yourself and others.

This includes listening to the feedback from your own life. This allows you to stay tuned in to your expected outcome.

What's it telling you? What adjustments need to be made to continue to move forward…without interruption?

What are you doing? Why are you doing it?

Stay tuned in to your heart.

Interruption cuts off valuable energy, and momentum.

Today's the day to STOP...

Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage with yourself.)

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

Write down where you're interrupting yourself in your life. Or where you've taken yourself off course.

Identify it. Circle it. Make a commitment today to stay the course, get yourself back on track, and keep moving forward.

For some it may be easier to start, while for others it may be easier to finish. Here's how you can do both...

However, I think most people find themselves feeing stuck in the "I don't know where to start" category.

Start something.

This has always been easy for me…but I've had to learn the hard way that starting simply for the sake of STARTING or running with an idea doesn't always work real well.

Perhaps you're like me and you find it way easier to start, but…

Is this working for you?

For me, I got to a point in my life where I had to finally admit that STARTING wasn't always the answer…and it simply wasn't working.

Starting without finishing will wear you out.

Where's your finish line?

Done gets paid. If you don't finish it, there's a lack or loss of value.

When you exchange that value for something of value you keep the circle of life going…the circle of value growing.

If you start, but don't finish, you won't get results.

Ideas start things.

BUT…

An idea doesn't FINISH it.

Inspiration will take you a long way, no doubt, and staying tapped into the true power of the inspiration will help you finish as well.

HOWEVER, how about finishing your START?

Is it possible that one of the reasons you haven't finished something is because you…haven't started?

AND/OR…

You haven't fully finished your START?

What do I mean by this?

To start or finish anything you must START AND FINISH your START.

How?

You must...

1. SHOW UP.

Are you showing up?

How are you showing up?

When you show up are you fully AVAILABLE?

Are you showing your TRUE SELF…genuinely and authentically?

2. Be ALL IN.

To FINISH your start you must be ALL IN to the START.

A lot of times, we're not ALL IN from the very start. We tiptoe, or walk around it – at times sticking our toe in — but we're never fully diving in.

The truth is, you don't have to dive in, but you MUST get fully into the pool. Step into it, and begin.

You must begin to WALK.

As the water gets deeper, in no time you'll be floating and flowing.

And eventually you're going to need to swim…or you'll drown.

FINISHING YOUR START means you're ALL IN, and you're SWIMMING.

3. Go ALL OUT.

Fully swim and flow in the deep end of the pool. Be ALL OUT…FULL OUT…so eventually so you can finish up your SHOW UP.

FINISH UP YOUR START UP.

Then take it to the next level.

A lot of times we think about the END result, and think it's so many miles down the road that we can't even see the finish line, so we don't start.

If this is YOU today, START.

Then finish what you start by FINISHING YOUR START.

Focus on simply starting and fully finishing your start. FIRST.

Start and get fully into the deep end, and immersed in your START.

Remembering that in order to get to the ultimate finish line that's ahead, it's going to require several finishes.

You must have several FINISHES before you get to the ultimate finish line.

The end of our lives is the ultimate finish line…and the beginning of a new to START.

It's another ALL IN moment.

The first finish is FINISHING YOUR START.

Are you willing to be ALL IN to the start AND to go to the next FINISH?

And so on…

If you only partially START, by NOT finishing your start, you'll keep starting...starting...starting and never finish because you haven't first FINISHED YOUR START. (Got it?)

The key to your finish is FULLY STARTING…finish your start, my dear!

If you don't fully finish your START, you'll never finish your FINISH.

Starting and finishing coincide.

Finish your START so you're able to start your FINISH.

Then you can FINISH WHAT YOU START.

And begin something new to START AGAIN...

This may be YOU today. If you feel as though you need to start over or start again, it's OKAY.

Step in so you can go ALL IN. Then you can FINISH YOUR START.

Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

What's the ONE thing you've been meaning to start, but haven't OR you've started something and haven't finished?

Write it down. Circle it.

Commit by taking a step today in the process of fully FINISHING YOUR START.

So you can START YOUR FINISH.

I sure hope this helps you. Thanks for tuning in today, and every day.

You don't have to win every race to win your race.

Then next time you feel as though you need to compare yourself to someone else.

Stop.

The next time you feel as though you need to beat someone, or yourself, up.

Stop.

Beating yourself up will never win the competition.

Competing WITH yourself will allow you to WIN your race.

Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

Take a look at your life, and ask yourself:

- Where am I comparing myself to others?

- Where am I competing against myself?

Allow your heart to show you truth about this.

Take time to write it out in your journal.

Then write this: I will compete and win WITH MYSELF.

Arm and arm. Hand in hand. Heart to heart.

(NOTE: While traveling I'm not able to use my regular sound equipment...so please pardon the pops of air that occur with "P" words like POWER!)

That's right, decision.

When "doing the decision" look at your…

How?

2. Options.

What's available now?

3. Date.

When are you going to make the move?

4. Death or LIFE?

Choose LIFE, my dear!

Today's message is one of the many reasons I love NYC. There are many lessons to be learned if we're willing to be aware and ask...

We all have a different perspective about this thing we call: L.I.F.E.

What's YOURS?

How are you expressing yourself? Are you ALL IN?

How committed are you to what you say you're committed to?

Are you willing to be ALL IN to what you say you're ALL IN to?

Where are you in your S.O.L. Adventure?

Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

Think about what you think about.

Think about what you truly believe.

Think about what you desire.

Ask yourself, "Would I be willing to do something that may seem almost 'unacceptable' to stand for, and create, what I truly believe in my heart?"

What would it look and feel like for you to...

Express your unique self?

Speak up and be fully engaged and expressed in your life?

Please journal about this.

Allow your heart to speak to you.

First of all, it's not a commitment issue.

It's a decision issue.

You have more choices and options than you think you do.

The problem is, you think you don't.

But…

You do.

The other problem is, even though you do have choices, you're not exercising your power to choose.

THAT'S RIGHT. YOU HAVE POWER.

Although, the only way to access it is by making a decision.

Yes, there's a decision that must be made.

Without decisions, there are no commitments...and there is no power.

Are you willing today to make the necessary decisions to begin living the life that you say you desire?

The choice is yours, my dear.

Are you committed?

Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)

TODAY'S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:

Take a look at your life right now…where is it that you need or desire to make a decision?

Write it down with power and declaration.

Take at least one action step in that direction.
