Is your body failing you, or is it trying to get your attention? In this episode, we challenge the frustrating cycle of "doing everything right", eating well, taking supplements and managing stress, only to find that your body still isn't healing. Drawing inspiration from the profound work of Caroline Myss, we explore the connection between your emotional life and physical health, diving deep into the concept of "Woundology" and how your biography becomes your biology. What We Cover:Healing isn't just physical; your body is constantly responding to your thoughts, emotions and energy. We break down the Seven Graces to help you shift from a state of burnout to one of balance: Reverence: Shifting from speaking to your body like it's broken to treating it like it's wise. Gratitude: Moving beyond "toxic positivity" to create a subtle nervous system shift. Humility: Softening the grip of needing to control every outcome. Endurance: Learning to stay present with discomfort instead of numbing through distractions. Forgiveness: Releasing the stored resentment and emotional weight that manifests physically. Faith: Trusting the healing process even when the results aren't instant. Compassion: Silencing the inner critic that is dysregulating your nervous system. Experience the Shift. This episode includes a guided "Grace Check-In" practice. This short, experiential meditation is designed to help you stop pushing and start listening to what your body is truly asking of you. 00:52 Healing as "Being" vs. "Doing" : A fundamental shift in perspective where healing is defined not just by routines or protocols, but by who you are being while you perform them. 02:18 The Seven Graces Framework : Inspired by Caroline Myss, these seven internal shifts (Reverence, Gratitude, Humility, Endurance, Forgiveness, Faith, and Compassion) are introduced as tools for recovery 03:10 The Concept of Woundology : A syndrome where individuals may subconsciously use illness to manipulate their environment rather than pursuing true healing. 03:38 Biography Becomes Biology : The concept that life experiences, traumas, and stress physically alter the body's chemistry and immune function. 10:49 The Inner Critic and the Nervous System : Highlighting how self-judgment and internal pressure physically dysregulate the nervous system. 11:47 The Body as a Responsive System : The core message that the body isn't "broken" or failing, but is actively responding to physical, mental, and spiritual "food". 12:46 A short meditation to connect with your body. Stop fighting your body and start healing from the inside out.

In this episode of Mind Body Medicine for Self Healers, we dive into a topic that isn't discussed nearly enough: the immense internal toll of being "the strong one". On the outside, you look reliable and composed, but underneath, the effort to keep going, no matter what, is becoming physically and emotionally exhausting. We explore:The "hidden cost" of maintaining a perfect exterior while feeling depleted inside. Why the pressure to be the reliable one is a silent contributor to chronic stress. How to start acknowledging the weight of "holding it together" so you can begin to truly heal. If you're the woman everyone else leans on, this conversation is for you. It's time to name the exhaustion and look at what it's actually costing your body and mind. Key Information and time stamps00:50 The Appearance of "Handling It" : Sarah discusses how women often look like they have everything under control on the outside, even when they are internally exhausted.01:08 What "Holding It Together" Looks Like : This pattern often manifests as being the person everyone relies on and pushing through tasks even when the body is asking to stop.01:50 The Problem with "Functioning" : Sarah shares her personal experience of not realizing how much she was carrying because she was still able to cope and do what needed to be done.02:52 The "Wired but Tired" Cost : Constant internal holding can lead to low-level exhaustion and a body that never feels fully at ease or able to relax.04:15 Why Resting Feels Unsafe : For those used to being alert and in control, letting go can actually feel uncomfortable or unsafe rather than relieving.05:30 The Power of Awareness : Shifting the pattern begins with getting curious about what you are holding and using awareness to soften the automatic response.Listen now to start unburdening yourself.

Are you exhausted from tracking your steps, perfecting your cold plunges and managing your macros, yet still feeling "stuck"? In this episode of Mind Body Medicine for Self Healers, host Sarah explores the hidden pressure behind the biohacking trend.While tools and protocols have their place, they often become a sophisticated way of overriding the body's natural intelligence. Sarah challenges the belief that your body is a problem to be solved or a machine to be optimized. Instead, she invites you to see your symptoms; fatigue, pain and anxiety, as vital communication.Key Information Timestamps02:02 – The Biohacking Trap Sarah discusses how curiosity can quickly turn into pressure, leading you to manage your life rather than live it, often fueled by the belief that something in you is "broken."04:11 – The Burden of "Wellness" A look at how high-achieving women often turn healing into another standard to meet, creating "pressure dressed up as wellness" that stresses the nervous system.05:06 – Performance vs. Connection Sarah explains the shift from the medical model of "fixing" to the mind-body model of "listening," sharing her personal realization that symptoms are communication, not problems.06:13 – Biohacking vs. Healing A direct contrast between the two: why biohacking focuses on performance and control, while true healing focuses on connection and releasing what's been held.07:18 – Guided Reflection & Listening A dedicated space to stop "figuring it out." Sarah leads a somatic exercise to help you tune into your body's current state and ask what it truly needs.10:15 – Coming Back to Yourself Closing thoughts on trusting that your body is working for you and how to move forward when you feel stuck despite following all the "tools."Key Takeaways:Real healing doesn't come from more pressure. It comes from safety.Biohacking adds input; healing involves releasing.Symptoms are not random; they are intelligent responses to your life environment.Healing begins when you stop forcing and start trusting your body is working for you, not against you.Enjoyed the show?Please leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear that they are enough, exactly as they are.Connect with Sarah:If you're ready to dive deeper into the root causes of your symptoms and move beyond the "optimization" mindset, visit our website www.sarahdawkins.com and connect with us on social media.Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

Today, I sit down with Alex Lombardi, founder of The Brain Edit™, to discuss a missing link in traumatic brain injury (TBI) treatment: Lifestyle. After surviving three traumatic brain injuries, ranging from freak accidents to a near-death car crash, Alex realized that the traditional medical model often leaves patients stuck in a cycle of symptom management. 01:10 A simple accident in a bunk bed caused a subdural hematoma (bleeding in the brain), emphasizing that you don't need a "massive accident" for a life-altering injury.06:02 A crucial discussion on the "victimhood mentality." Alex explains why you must validate your pain but set a strict time limit on staying in that headspace to allow the brain to transition from trauma to recovery.11:37 Introducing a missing piece of many recovery plans: Eye retraining. She discusses how "tracking" issues can manifest as severe cognitive dysfunction and why vision therapy is a game-changer for brain fog.14:42 Rehab routines, convergence and divergence exercises (the finger-to-nose method) and the "rotating chair" movements to retrain balance.25:17 #1 life hack: The Order of Eating. By eating greens first, then protein, fats and carbs last, you create a barrier that prevents the glucose spikes and crashes responsible for "brain fog" and the "2 p.m. slump."27:37 Debunking the "low-fat" myths, why the brain requires cholesterol and saturated fats (butter, tallow, ghee) to repair the myelin sheath, the protective coating around your nerves.40:34 Learn the "science of the brake pedal." Alex explains why a 20-minute sensory deprivation reset is superior to a nap for calming the nervous system without disrupting your circadian rhythm.44:52 Recovery doesn't happen in a doctor's office, but in the 23 hours of the day spent at home focusing on habits and environment.Whether you are recovering from a concussion, supporting a loved one through a TBI, or simply looking to optimize your brain health and focus, this conversation offers a roadmap for healing from the inside out.Alex's Bio Alex Lombardi is the founder of The Brain Edit™, the lifestyle-based brain recovery platform redefining how women stop managing symptoms and start living again. After experiencing three traumatic brain injuries over the course of a decade, she recognized a critical gap in the recovery model. Medical care addresses what happens inside appointments, but the other 23 hours of daily life determines how the brain actually functions.Through The Brain Edit™, Alex guides women toward clarity, cognitive stability, and renewed momentum by focusing on the structure of modern life itself. Routines, environment, energy management, nutrition, and identity become the foundation for sustainable capacity.Positioned at the intersection of brain health, lifestyle intelligence, and modern living, Alex is known for introducing the missing conversation in recovery: if you're not talking about lifestyle, you're not talking about recovery.Connect with Alex https://alexlombardiofficial.com/thebrainedithttps://www.instagram.com/alexlombardiofficial/https://www.facebook.com/alexmarielombardihttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enriched-with-alex-lombardi/id1561272941Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

We're diving into the two hidden drivers of burnout that go far beyond a heavy workload: Identity-linked pressure and Nervous System Dysregulation.In this episode, we explore:The Burnout Misconception: Why vacations don't work.The Identity Trap: Why high-achievers can't "turn off."The Biological Reality: Burnout as a nervous system shutdown.The Signs: From "tired but wired" to emotional flattening.The Solution: Shifting how you view your value.Do you recognize these patterns in yourself?

Why does chronic pain return even after months of physical therapy and exercise? Today I sit down with chronic joint and back pain specialist Bonnie Ryckova to uncover the missing link in injury recovery.Bonnie shares her powerful journey from childhood trauma and multiple accidents to discovering the "layers of compensation" the body builds over decades. Learn why traditional strengthening exercises often fail when the body is stuck in a fight-or-flight response and how nervous system regulation can finally break the cycle of painful flare-ups. This conversation offers a roadmap to move from "fixing" your body to partnering with it for lasting relief.Key Highlights & Timestamps03:09 The "Dissociation" of Injury: Bonnie describes the psychological impact of her first childhood injury, explaining how a plaster cast led to a feeling of disconnection from her own limb, a common side effect of physical trauma.05:17 The Hidden Impact of Childhood Accidents: A detailed look at how a "minor" accident at age 10 created a "rotational" compensation in Bonnie's pelvis that stayed with her for decades, despite X-rays showing nothing was broken.14:26 Trauma Processing vs. Physical Fixing: Following a car accident in her 30s, Bonnie explains the pivotal moment she realized that physical exercise alone couldn't heal her because the emotional trauma of the impact hadn't been processed.20:05 The "Layers of Compensation": A breakdown of how the body adapts over time. Bonnie explains that the demands we put on our bodies (career changes, travel, stress) add "layers" to old injuries, making standard physical therapy less effective over time.22:34 Nervous System "Fight or Flight" in Fitness: Bonnie discusses the irony of the fitness industry, where high-intensity "hustle" can actually prevent healing by keeping the nervous system in a constant state of threat.31:18 Learning to Listen to "Body Guidance": Bonnie shares her method of lying on the floor and allowing the body to lead the movement (rocking, pelvic tilts) rather than following a rigid exercise protocol.41:09 The "Silent" Rib Cage Breath: A step-by-step tutorial on the specific breathing technique Bonnie uses to expand the thoracic spine, relax the jaw, and signal safety to the brain to stop a pain flare-up.Bonnie's Bio Bonnie is a Chronic Joint and Back Pain Specialist who works with people whose pain keeps returning despite physiotherapy and exercise. Her work focuses on understanding how the body has adapted over time and where load is no longer shared evenly.Her background includes biomechanics, clinical Pilates and postural therapy, alongside lived experience of chronic pain, hypermobility, and injury recovery. This informs a way of working that is structured, body-led, and realistic, prioritising clarity before action.Her work has been featured in Forbes (2024), 30 Day Health Magazine (2025), and The I-Paper (2026).

Why You Can't "Force" Your Healing: From Survival to Safety Are you trying too hard to heal? In the final part of my healing journey trilogy, I reveal a counterintuitive truth: the harder we push, the harder it is for our bodies to recover. Many of us treat healing like a discipline, controlling our diets, pushing through fatigue and demanding results but your body cannot heal while it is in survival mode.In this episode, we explore:The Nervous System: Why safety is a feeling, not a thought.The Wisdom of Symptoms: Decoding the messages behind eczema, thyroid issues, and adrenal burnout.Depression as "Deep Rest": Re-framing mental health struggles as a biological cry for stillness.The Power of Allowing: Shifting from "doing" to "being" to turn off your body's red alert.If you've been your own harshest critic, it's time to stop pushing and start listening. Learn how to cooperate with your body and provide the safety it needs to finally heal.Key Information 00:18 — The Healing Trilogy: Reflecting on the journey from where I was to where I am now.00:39 — The Myth of "Effort": Why trying harder and being more disciplined can actually prevent healing.01:43 — Survival vs. Safety: Understanding that the body heals only when it no longer feels the need to protect itself.02:30 — The Nervous System: Safety is a feeling in the body, not a scientific concept or a logical thought.03:22 — Rest is Not Lazy: Re-framing rest as a necessary form of self-care and a signal of safety to the brain.04:58 — Listening to Body Wisdom: Shifting from looking for external solutions to listening to internal messages.05:16 — Decoding Symptoms: Eczema, Adrenal Fatigue, Thyroid07:05 — Depression as "Deep Rest": A powerful re-framing of depression as the body's desperate cry for stillness.07:46 — Cooperating with the Body: Learning to treat yourself with the same kindness you offer others.08:35 — A Message for Those Still Healing: Why not being "healed yet" isn't a failure, but a learning process for your body.Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

The Stories We Tell Ourselves: How Your Subconscious Shapes Your HealthDiscover how your childhood "life filters" shape your physical health in the second part of this trilogy with myself, Sarah Dawkins. Learn how the subconscious mind stores early experiences as truth, triggering the nervous system and creating physical symptoms as a survival strategy. Explore why your body isn't "broken," but rather responding perfectly to the stories you believe.Key Takeaways00:15: Introduction: The Healing Trilogy Sarah introduces part two of her series, shifting the focus from identifying "stories" to understanding how they manifest physically and mentally.00:51: The Formation of "Life Filters" A breakdown of how childhood experiences (between the ages of 0 and 7) and the opinions of others are stored in the subconscious as absolute truths.01:42: Seeing the World Through Lenses Sarah introduces the metaphor of "life glasses"—how our subconscious beliefs act as filters that shape our entire perception of reality.02:26: The Body as a Protector A look at the biological side of belief: how the body prepares for "threats" based on what the mind perceives as true, even if that threat is an old memory.03:35: Why We Respond to Meaning, Not Reality An explanation of why triggers make us angry or sad. We aren't responding to the event itself, but to the meaning we've assigned to it through our past experiences.04:40 Survival Strategies & Self-Sabotage The subconscious mind's primary goal is belonging and safety. Sarah discusses how behaviors like perfectionism and "not speaking out" are actually learned safety mechanisms.05:44: Symptoms as Self-Preservation A powerful shift in perspective: physical symptoms are not "faults" but strategies the body uses to stay vigilant and alert.06:25 Softening the Story The takeaway: nothing needs "fixing." Simply becoming conscious of the story allows the nervous system to soften, relax, and breathe.06:51 Closing Thoughts Sarah asks the final, provocative question: "What if your body has been responding perfectly to what it believed was true?"Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

Beyond Symptom Suppression: Why You Aren't Broken.Are you searching for a "cure" but still feel broken? Join myself, Sarah Dawkins, in the first of a special three-part trilogy on the Mind Body Medicine for Self-Healers podcast. Drawing on my background as a nurse and my own personal battle with chronic conditions, including psoriasis, PTSD and adrenal burnout, I reflect on the pitfalls of my previous knowledge of the "medical model" of healing.In this episode, we explore:Why looking externally for healing often leads to frustration and self-blame.The difference between symptom suppression and true root-cause healing.How to stop living the "story" of being broken and start listening to your body's messages.What I would do differently if I had to start my healing journey over today.Stop researching symptoms and start understanding your body. You aren't behind, and you don't need to be "fixed.Key Information 00:42 – Reflection: Why Sarah is sharing her journey.01:34 – The Nurse's Perspective: Why Sarah initially focused only on the physical plane (diet, exercise and supplements).01:51 – A list of the health challenges Sarah faced (Psoriasis, PTSD, Candida, Burnout and more).02:20 – The "Broken" Trap: The frustration of researching symptoms and feeling like a failure when external cures don't work.04:06 – The Turning Point: Realizing the mistake of looking externally for answers instead of looking inside.05:54 – The limitation of the "Medical Model": Why diet and rehab are only the beginning.07:12 – Defining True Healing: The difference between symptom suppression (pills/amelioration) and root-cause healing.08:16 – The "Story" of the Symptom: How Sarah realized she was responding to a narrative of being "bad" or "lacking" rather than the physical ailment itself.09:33 – The Core Message: "You are not broken and you don't need to be fixed."Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

Healing MS Naturally: Bridging Science and Soul Can you truly reclaim your health from the inside out?In this episode of Mind Body Medicine for Self Healers, I sit down with holistic transformation guide Christine Ruch to discuss her incredible 20-year journey of healing Multiple Sclerosis (MS) naturally.After moving beyond mainstream medicine, Christine utilized nervous system restoration, whole-food nutrition and spiritual practices to reconnect with her body's innate wisdom. We dive deep into the connection between autoimmune disease and the nervous system, the importance of emotional capacity and why "remodelling" your relationship with your emotions is a primary key to lasting transformation. Whether you are living with MS or seeking holistic healing for chronic illness, this conversation offers grounded practices to move from symptom management to true inner healing.Key Takeaways 01:50 Early Red Flags & Body Sensitivity Before her MS diagnosis, Christine struggled with weight issues, severe skin conditions (rosacea and eczema) & environmental allergies, signs that her body was already in a state of high sensitivity.04:31 The "Missing Piece": Nervous System Regulation After years of focusing on diet and lifestyle, Christine realized that nervous system work was the most overlooked part of her journey. She explains why this should be an integral part of healing not just "woo-woo" support.08:13 Eliminating Common Inflammatory Triggers: autoimmune conditions start by eliminating "the big four" inflammatory products; refined sugar, gluten, dairy and often egg products.08:57 The Role of Emotional Trauma: How a "disordered nervous system" and unprocessed emotional stress can feed autoimmune conditions and prevent the body from entering a healing state.10:18 Building "Emotional Capacity": We are not our emotions. Learning to hold space for uncomfortable feelings without creating a "story" or an "identity" around them is a foundational step in recovery.18:31 Developing a Body-Language Dialogue: The importance of listening to your body like a "newborn infant"—with curiosity and tenderness—to move from a place of fear to a place of internal trust.28:56 The "Type A" Stress Identity: Christine used to "thrive on stress" as a high-achieving chef, only to realize later that her high-pressure lifestyle was kept in service of a dysregulated nervous system.Christine's Bio Christine Ruch is a Holistic Transformation Guide who helps people with health conditions reconnect to their body's innate wisdom and healing potential. After spending 20 years healing her own MS naturally through whole food nutrition, nervous system restoration, spiritual practice, plant medicine, deep self-inquiry and many other Eastern and Western modalities, Christine now guides others on their own transformative healing path. Her work bridges science and soul—offering tools to move beyond symptom management and into lasting inner healing. She's here to share insight, hope, and grounded practices for listeners ready to reclaim their health from the inside out.Connect with Christine https://ChristineRuch.comInstagram: @ChristineRuch.MSSubstack: ChristineRuch.substack.comWho am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

Have you ever been told that a health condition is something you simply have to "manage" for the rest of your life? That the only way forward is through lifelong medication and constant vigilance?Today's guest, Kathryn Waldrom found herself at that exact crossroads. After a routine health check-up, Kathryn was diagnosed with diabetes and prescribed medication without a second thought. But Kathryn chose a different path, one of remembrance, presence, and deep listening.In this episode, we explore Kathryn's journey of refusing to treat her body as a "problem to be fixed." Instead, she began to look at the "loops" we live inside, the stress, the grief of losing her parents and the emotional fallout of a ending marriage. Key Information:03:35 The Stress-Glucose Connection: How cortisol and deep-seated emotions like "lack of love" manifest physically in our blood sugar levels.15:36 Radical Self-Acceptance: Moving from a state of "reaction" to one of "response" and peace.18:40 Dropping the Labels: The power of shifting from "I am a diabetic" to "I am having an experience."24:45 The Gift of Symptoms: How to thank our bodies for their signals rather than hating the condition.35:10 Reaction mode versus responding: Seeing and respecting emotions.Kathryn doesn't call herself a healer or a teacher; she speaks of a "signal restoration", a way of coming back home to oneself. This conversation isn't about doing more or trying harder, it's about what softens when we stop fighting our own bodies.Kathryn' s BioKathryn (Kya) is not a teacher, healer, or guide, she is a field of remembrance.From early life, she carried the question, How do I behave here?, not from confusion, but from awareness entering form. She did not forget what she was, but chose to walk through distortion as presence, quietly witnessing how systems shape identity and loop belief.Her vision of the Murky Sea was not metaphor, but direct knowing. In it, she stood at the edge of a vast dark ocean, not water, but thought-form. The sea was made of loops, emotional echo, ancestral code, identity scaffolds, memory mistaken as truth. She saw that most never leave it. They swim, strive, seek clarity, but remain inside. The sea is not malevolent. It simply loops. And until it is seen as illusion, it feels like life itself.From this vision came Signal Restoration, not a method, but a field. A soft return. It does not heal, guide, or fix. It ends the pretending.Kathryn does not offer awakening. She lives it. And in that presence, the loop dissolves.She offers private Signal Restoration bookings in person, by quiet invitation only. These are not advertised or promoted. They are felt, and followed, by those ready to return.She lives in Spain and is not in a role. She is what remains when roles fall away.Connect with Kathryn https://www.facebook.com/kathryn.waldrom.1 Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

For so long, I shaped my life around who I thought I needed to be—checking the boxes, playing the roles, staying safe in the familiar. But deep down, something was always stirring: a quiet knowing that I was meant for more. In this episode, I'm inviting you into the sacred space between who you've been… and who you're becoming. We'll explore what it really means to step out of your Inner Critic's identity—the one built on perfection, control, and people-pleasing—and into the version of you who's wise, whole, and wildly free. ✨ If you've been feeling restless, like you're outgrowing the life you once worked so hard to build—this conversation is your invitation to stop performing and start returning to your truth. Listen now and begin the next chapter of your life rooted in power, presence, and your Authentic Self. Your weekly reflection questions: What version of me have I been performing—and what truth have I been hiding underneath that role? Where in my life am I still letting my Inner Critic make the decisions—and what would shift if I chose from my Authentic Self instead? If I stopped waiting for permission, recognition, or certainty… what bold step would I take next?
For most of my life, I believed that money came from hard work—hustling, grinding, proving my worth. But deep down, that belief was rooted in fear and lack. In this episode, I'm sharing the truth that changed everything for me: you don't attract money by doing more—you attract it by shifting who you are on the inside. We'll explore how your Inner Critic has shaped your money story, how to unhook from deeply ingrained scarcity patterns, and how to align with the version of you who already feels worthy, abundant, and free. If you've been chasing success and still feeling like it's never enough—this is your wake-up call to stop striving and start receiving. Listen now and begin creating wealth from within. Your weekly reflection questions: What do I believe about money—and where did that belief come from? How would I think, feel, and act if I already trusted that abundance is who I am? In what ways is my Inner Critic still convincing me that I have to earn my worth?

For years, I was doing everything “right”—checking the boxes, building a life that looked good on the outside—yet deep down, something felt off. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was betraying my Authentic Self, letting old patterns and my Inner Critic run the show. In this episode, I'm sharing the deeper truth about what it really means to live your true calling—not by fixing your life, but by unhooking from the thoughts, roles, and beliefs that no longer serve you. If you've ever felt stuck, restless, or quietly wondered, “Is this really it?”—this is the conversation your soul has been waiting for. Watch now to reconnect with the version of you who's always been there, just waiting to be remembered. Your weekly reflection questions: Where in your life are you saying “yes” when your Authentic Self is quietly saying “no”? What truth have you been avoiding that your body already knows? If you stopped trying to prove, fix, or strive—who would you allow yourself to become?

In this episode of the Dethroning Your Inner Critic Podcast, Joanna Kleinman delves into the three biggest obstacles you'll encounter when trying to change your life: Your Hardwired Brain: Our brains resist change and prefer predictability which can lead to discomfort and hesitation when we step outside our comfort zone. Your Past: Our past experiences and identities can limit our beliefs about what's possible. Letting go of these limiting beliefs is crucial for growth. Your Fear: Deep-seated fears, often stemming from core wounds, can hold us back from pursuing our dreams. Recognizing and processing these fears is essential for moving forward. The episode emphasizes that overcoming these obstacles is key to living a truly fulfilling life. It's not about achieving your dreams to feel happy, but rather, finding happiness now and taking steps towards your dreams from that place of fulfillment. Reflection questions: What is one change you've been wanting to make in your life? What obstacles have you encountered in trying to make this change? How can you apply the strategies discussed in this episode to overcome those obstacles? Are you ready to find out which Inner Critic Is Ruling Your Mind? Take the FREE Inner Critic Assessment now to Identify the patterns that keep you stuck professionally and personally.

Why is it that women give their power away easily? It's linked to patriarchy and the patterns our mothers face growing up. To me, we heal when we take our power back - we heal decades of generational trauma that's in our lineage and we release patriarchal patterns that have been holding us back through time. On this week's Inner Light Project Podcast, I am joined by April Roberts to talk about taking our power back and healing wounds and why women find it difficult to leave toxic relationships. We talk about how strong women are and how you can finally put yourself first. In this episode, April and I explore… Healing from toxic marriages/relationships How to take your power back The importance of holding strong boundaries Why receiving is super important for women The power of embracing your feminine energy Healing generational patterns Listening to the universe And so much more!
