"Healing is remembering your most authentic self. Who you were before the world told you who you needed to be. It's a process of shedding and releasing all the things that no longer serve you, whether it's beliefs, patterns, or ways of thinking."

You've probably heard that healing is a process. But what does that mean, exactly? It means you'll be shedding old habits and beliefs that no longer serve you—and it's going to be messy. Healing is the process of remembering your most authentic self before society told you who you needed to be “successful”.

We all deal with things in our lives that don't feel aligned. Whether it's a relationship that isn't working or an unhealthy habit, or a job that sucks the life out of us, we all find ourselves trying to fit into the mold society has created for us—a mold that isn't always healthy or true to who we are deep down inside. And as we allow ourselves to remember the person we are destined to be, we realize how much of our programming isn't serving us. Thankfully, there is a way to break free from that mold—and find our way back to our true identity, our most authentic self—and it starts with healing. 

Healing is about loving yourself and nourishing your mind, body, and spirit so that you grow and transform into who you're meant to be. I've been committed to my own healing journey for a few years now, and I'm here to tell you that it isn’t easy. But today, I am a completely different version of myself mentally, physically, and emotionally. Saying yes to the journey is one of the best things that ever happened to me.

I am an advocate for the transformative power of MEDITATION, BREATHWORK, and YOGA. These are powerful tools for aligning your mind, body, and soul. 

EXCEPTIONAL HIGHLIGHTS:

• Your heart and internal wants and desires don't always match up with the world, society, and the people around us.
•  Once you allow your light to shine, there's no dimming it. We have to awaken from our state of autopilot.
• Our inner voice is always giving us nudges that things are off. But the mind is so loud all of the time that we learn to constantly ignore our intuition and internal guidance system.

Highlights:

10:48 Healing as a Process of Remembering

• Dom: Healing is remembering the beautiful, authentic versions of ourselves.

16:18 Healing is letting go of External Validation

• Dom: Internal validation matters most, not what my f

"Our trauma shows up in everything we do, from the way that we love to the way that we parent if we have children. And, of course, it shows up in our business as entrepreneurs."

For me, success feels like living an authentic and aligned life—it’s when I wake up every day and feel fulfilled by the work I'm doing and the people I'm surrounded by.

As an entrepreneur, my version of success looks like being able to build community and create a safe space for people to come together, share their stories, and find support for their own journeys.

But my version of success may be different from yours. We have different goals and aspirations. And we don't share the same paths or stories. As we all are in a constant process of learning, unlearning, and growing, we are gradually evolving and transforming into something significant. Each new experience is a chance to learn more about ourselves and the world around us. And that is why it's essential to live a life by our own rules and definition of success

And this week, I'm excited to bring you an interview with Sam Smith. Sam is a designer, entrepreneur, and mom who is on a mission to infuse more soul into style. In addition to being a wife and mom —she holds several titles including CEO of New Vintage by Sam, founder of The Creative Consulting Group, founding member of She's Well Networked and COO of Bmore Empowered. Listen in as she talks about how she sparked her creative style in business, and how she cultivated a culture in her company.

Exceptional Highlights:

• If we're not honest with ourselves, we are on autopilot. We will be in general spaces, not in our signature. Seeking external validation is never the move.
• Entrepreneurship is important, but it's not everything. Though I do want to be successful, I want to have balance and time for family.
• The world feeds messages that make us feel we aren't enough. So it's up to us to protect and nurture ourselves; nobody is going to put on a cape and rescue us.

Show Highlights: 

9:12: The importance of finding purpose in art and passion

• Sam: I recreated designs by looking at magazines and using my imagination to re-envision the pieces. But first, I had to find myself and what my fashion aesthetic was.

26:44 The significance of having the confidence to grow

• Sam: I've learned to develop more simplicity and find ways to refine my process.

29:09 The Vision of the Hea

"Every time we decide not to listen to our inner being, our Higher Self, the internal guidance system that holds all the wisdom, gets out of alignment. We get further away from the path we are supposed to be traveling."

Establishing alignment with our inner self requires authenticity. It requires us to trust ourselves even when the direction we are being guided toward feels scary & quite frankly, might not make a lot of sense.

Oftentimes that direction & those nudges feel scary & uncomfortable, so we ignore our Inner Being. And then we end up misaligned. Misalignment happens when our minds & spirit are not on one accord. It can be an internal struggle, a massive weight on your shoulders. It can feel like there's a considerable gap between what you want & what you are doing.

We find ourselves stuck in the HOW? How do we rise to become the version of ourselves that we envision? The answer is that we have to learn to live more authentically & trust. We have to learn to accept ourselves as we truly are despite our imperfections. Despite the highlight reels from social media, life isn't meant to be perfect. That shift in perspective requires us to make some significant shifts in our lives. To slow down. To let go of all that is not working for you & to let go of the parts of you that don't align with your true self.

In this episode, I invite you to join me to find purpose & meaning in everything you do so that you can live the most authentic version of yourself. 

Exceptional Highlights:

• The most beautiful thing to note is that we always get to pivot & change; nothing has to stay the same.
• We all have our unique music & beat & stories. And people will resonate differently with your music & beat based on their own life experiences. That’s the beauty of this life journey.
• People can be helpful guides for you, but you will always be out of alignment if you are not operating from your inner guidance system. From your heart & soul. 

Show Highlights:

3:35: A significant achievement in my journey

• Dom: I have officially finished my breathwork certification program. And now, I am a certified breathwork facilitator. 

9:16: The significance of living intentionally

• Dom: But my ego was resistant to intuitive nudges. Until it got me to a place where I could not ignore my soul; my inner being's desire to slow down. 

19:22: My WHY! My inspiration behind the work that I do today

Savanah's Bio:
Savanah is 500 Hour Registered Yoga Teacher with specialty training in prenatal & postnatal yoga, yoga for fertility support, and yoga for menstruating bodies. She is an advocate for Women's Health and is passionate about supporting people through personal situations that are often experienced as shameful or taboo. She owns Pachamama Yoga Shala, in Kentucky, where she and several others provide healing, education, and guidance to the community around everything related to the Womb, from the beginning of menstruation to menopause and beyond. She deeply believes that true healing for all lies in pulling back from the glorified masculine energy of action and production and reestablishing a connection with the feminine energy of restoration and being. This realization began with her miscarriage, which put her on a path of self-discovery and helped her find purpose and passion in sharing this work with the world.

Episode Summary:
The School of Healing podcast, hosted by Dominiece Clifton, focuses on healing the mind, body, and emotions to embrace rest, relieve stress, and build habits for a thriving life. In this episode, Dominiece introduces Tanisha Grant-Keta, a licensed therapist and CEO, and discusses their personal journeys of healing and self-discovery. They explore the themes of unmasking, self-awareness, and the challenges faced by Black women in recognizing their worth and power. In this conversation, Tanisha shares her journey of self-discovery, healing, and embracing authenticity. She discusses the challenges of taking up space, shadow work, and the importance of self-love. She also delves into the concepts of unconditional love, spiritual awakening, and the distinction between self-care and soul care. Tanisha emphasizes the significance of simplicity, boundaries, and the journey of reconnecting with oneself. She encourages listeners to cancel the rules and embrace their limitless capacity for creating the life they desire.

In this episode we discuss…

• The importance of unmasking and self-awareness in the journey of healing and self-discovery.
• The challenges faced by Black women in recognizing their worth and power, and the impact of societal pressures on identity and self-expression.
• The process of creating space that reflects worth and power, and the significance of embracing every version of oneself in the journey towards liberation and freedom. Embracing authenticity and taking up space is a journey of self-discovery and self-love.
• Shadow work involves addressing past identities and releasing shame, guilt, and fear.
• Unconditional love is a powerful concept that transcends conditions and requires inner work to experience.
• Simplicity and boundaries are essential for soul care and self-love.
• Reconnecting with oneself and canceling the rules allows for the realization of limitless potential and the creation of the desired life.

Fire Soundbites You Don't Want To Miss:
"I've been going through my own unmasking process over the last six months, like very recent for me."

"It's not me versus me. It's me with me."

"There is no way we can experience true liberation and freedom when every form or version of us exists, that exists is in chains."
