Sustainable Stories of Self-Love

Hello and welcome to the Fearless Self-Love Podcast.  Loving ourselves is the most selfless thing we can do. When we prioritize our own needs, we show up more fully for others. We are more receptive and aware. We begin to live with ease. Each episode features conversations with creatives and wellness pros whose real-life stories will inspire you to take the next step toward living a life you love. Our bottom line is to cultivate communities of fearless self-love and compassionate connection, and you'll feel like you're right here with us, sitting around the table with a pot of tea. We'll walk you through an easeful living practice, and leave you with a courageous self-care tip.

I feel very far from the scene geographically, but I feel very close to the scene spiritually and emotionally. My heart is with the Palestinian people. My guts are with the Palestinian people. My cries and my songs are with the Palestinian people." - Steph Plant "I wish for grace and I wish for mercy and I wish for a ceasefire and I wish for an end to the occupation.” -Steph Plant “Collectively the more that we can step into our personal power - and our personal love and our personal truth and our personal peace - the less important our fear will be to us and that’s really the only thing we actually have control over - is our own internal experience and how we respond to our external experiences.” - Steph Plant “Let this grief and this rage radicalize me towards more compassion and courage.” - Roza https://www.instagram.com/yallaroza  “There is risk, but without doing it you’re risking never having the intimacy that you could have with that community or the power you could feel in actually making a change.” - Andrea Catherine Bachman  

S6 E1: Togetherness is Coming Back

Andrea chats with Intuitive Life Coach, Pavitra Gurumurthi. Pavitra and I explore the difference between letting go and trusting ourselves through major life transitions.   Pavitra's work is encompassed in one phrase "Walking the Path of Tenderized Authority," where she guides highly sensitive women to recognize the gifts held in their deeply empathic and feminine nature so they feel empowered to embrace a quiet confident approach to achieving their personal goals with ease.
