Episode 54: What's in Your Bag? The Language of Pain vs. Joy

Hey Love! ❤️
In this episode, we're diving into something so important for how we show up in relationships: emotional baggage. Yep, I said it. We all have it—whether we want to admit it or not. But here's the thing: if we don’t take time to unpack what’s weighing us down, we’re going to keep carrying it into every new chapter, every new season.

Today’s episode focuses on how to start unpacking that baggage by understanding the language of pain and joy. We all speak one of these languages, but which one are you speaking in your relationships? You might be wondering: “How do I figure that out?” That’s where the fun part comes in. I’m walking you through an activity that will help you reflect on the emotional baggage you're carrying into your next season. We’re going to ask some powerful questions that are going to shift how you see yourself and what you're bringing to the table.

We’ll unpack the difference between pain and joy—the vibe you’re bringing into your relationships. The truth is, you can't step into a new season until you know what’s in your bag, babe. Is it full of past pain, old wounds, and projections? Or is it packed with joy, clarity, and peace?

We'll explore: 

• What’s the single greatest lesson you carry with you to date?
• What are three words you would use to describe yourself?
• What is your single greatest asset or strength?

By the end of this episode, you’ll have the tools to assess your emotional baggage, unpack what’s no longer serving you, and step into your next season with a clearer, lighter heart. 🎒

Key Takeaways:

• Discover the powerful difference between the language of pain and the language of joy, and how it shapes your relationships.
• Walk through a reflective exercise to help you assess what emotional baggage you’re packing.
• Learn how to shift from carrying pain to carrying joy in your next season.
• Gain clarity on what you’re bringing into your next relationship (and what you need to leave behind).
