You’ve been seeing it everywhere, the soft life. Boundary-setting queen energy. Choosing peace. Saying no without guilt. So you tried it. You set that boundary, chose yourself, said no for the first time in forever… and it felt terrible. Like you were doing something wrong. Like maybe you’re not built for this whole “healing” thing.Love, can we talk about this? Because the truth about the soft life that nobody’s posting on Instagram? It doesn’t feel soft at first.In this episode, we’re breaking down what healing actually looks like when you strip away the aesthetic. Why peace feels unsafe when chaos was your normal. Why choosing yourself triggers guilt when you were raised to sacrifice everything. And what it really means to move through the Release, Rediscover, Reconnect journey, messy middle and all.This is for the woman who’s doing the work but wondering why it still feels so hard. For the woman who’s tired of the highlight reel version of healing and needs someone to tell her the truth.In This Episode, You’ll Discover: • Why the soft life feels like rebellion (not relief) when you first start choosing yourself • The real difference between your intuition and years of conditioning telling you your needs don’t matter • What healing actually looks like day-to-day (spoiler: it’s not aesthetic, and that’s okay) • The 3 phases of real healing and which one you’re in right now • Why your nervous system thinks peace is dangerous—and how to rewire that response • How to create YOUR soft life (hint: it’s not about brunch, it’s about intentional peace)This Episode Hits Different If:✨ You set boundaries and immediately feel guilty✨ Things are finally calm but your anxiety is through the roof✨ You know what you should do but your body won’t let you do it✨ You’re tired of “healing content” that doesn’t match your messy reality✨ You’re wondering if you’re doing this whole thing wrongHere’s What I Need You to Do:If this episode resonated, share it.
