Episode Synopsis

In this episode I ponder the nuances of identity, expectations, perfectionism, triggers, and being intentional about who and what we allow into our lives. Of all the wisdom I have gained along the way, this is perhaps one of the most important things to fully realize and understand.
While I recorded this six months ago, I find it is still very relevant to my life and to what I see happening in the world today, and I do pray that it inspires you in some way.
Listen in as I draw from my experiences and reflect on:

acceptance, self-love and self-respect
expectations...perhaps we expect more from ourselves than we realize

Pondering union and partnership with God
Are we becoming or remembering?
Looking out the windows of the ego room we’ve been trapped in, getting out of the comfort zone and going outside
Being mindful of what we listen to, what we allow to enter
Garden of the heart (will upload episode later). Intention toward the seeds that are thrown our way.
How our experiences serve a purpose

When is it okay to allow ourselves to be exposed again to trauma triggers?
Be intentional when it comes to your healing journey from trauma – certain people or situations may enter your life to hinder or stall your journey
