Self-Acceptance Is A True Badass Flex

We are told to work our noes to the grindstone.

To give until it hurts.

To put others first.

Because that’s virtue, right?

And to make that pressure even harder to sustain, we are taught to annihilate ourselves emotionally and mentally if we ever get a bit tired or overwhelmed.

Because that’s weakness, right?

In Today’s Episode You’ll Learn:

-Why Self-Acceptance is actually so difficult and therefore badass

-How to nurture more Self-Acceptance so your whole life improves

-A guided experience using the S.H.I.F.T. Model™ to find Self-Acceptance in real time.

If you're ready to understand what Self-Acceptance really means, with your whole body, not just your mind, then this episode is for you.

We are always taught to seek transformation. To advance, achieve, and attain. That could be money, career, romance or even our health.

And while there is nothing wrong with chasing our desires, we mistakenly believe we aren’t complete yet.

We chase a future where fulfillment supposedly lives.

But the truth is that fulfillment lives in only one place: The Present Moment.

In Today’s Episode You’ll Learn:

-How we’ve become so preoccupied with transformation and improvement

-The paradox of seeking perfection in a perfect reality

-The art of allowing transformation by no longer needing it to happen.

If you're tired of always looking for the next self-improvement optimization and just want to relax inside your own skin for once, then this episode is for you.

Beyond Hallmark Cards: Self-Compassion As Felt Experience

We hear about self-compassion as part of healing but language fails to capture its essence leading us to believe it means letting ourselves off the hook, bypassing our pain, or being permissive with our worst habits because “we’re doing our best” after all. But self-compassion is none of that.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

–Why self-compassion has nothing to do with letting ourselves off the hook

–How self-compassion is beyond explanation and becomes real by felt experience

-How the felt experience of self-compassion leads to accountability

If you’re ready to finally understand what self-compassion means by embracing the felt experience then this episode is for you.

With New Year’s upon us we are bombarded with messages about resolutions, and making every second count, and installing better habits and sustainable routines, essentially creating an entirely new and improved version of ourselves. Even with good intentions and earnest pursuit, the journey of self-improvement is, inherently, a journey of self-rejection. Instead, take a journey of self-acceptance, and see for yourself that on the other side of our resistance is our transcendence.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

–Why the “New Year, New You” approach is destined to fail.

–Why healing and transformation actually happen through acceptance of what is, not force

-How to embrace radical self-acceptance so transformation can unfold naturally

If you’re ready to truly embrace yourself for once, despite the New Year’s push to self-reject, then this episode is for you.

The True Meaning of ‘Joy To the World’ And How To Survive the Holidays Safely

We think of Joy as an emotion, a feeling, a cousin of delight. But its far deeper. Joy is the natural ground of existence which reveals itself as we heal trauma and transcend cultural programming.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

–What Joy REALLY is, and how its connected to trauma

–How the holidays bury joy by obscuring safety

-How to turn your triggers into game play, and put the FUN in Dysfunction

If you’re ready to truly access JOY, regardless of the holidays, then this episode is for you.

That’s unbelievable. In today’s episode you’ll learn: –How to align our belief system to our current chosen values-The 4 step process for how to transcend a belief system you sense you are starting to outgrown-How to replace obsolete systems of belief with empowering ones you create for yourself.
