Sisterhood: Connecting Through Meaningful Conversations

We all have parts of ourselves that we don't want others to see, so we keep them hidden. In this conversation, I'm sharing how I have experienced my shadow self and have learned how to have a healthy relationship with the parts of me that I used to feel shame or embarrassment around. 

Getting to know those shadow aspects of yourself doesn't have to be a daunting experience. This practice must be done without judgement or shame. We all have parts of ourselves that we want to keep hidden, or that we are unaware are unconsciously not being supportive towards ourselves. 

I hope this episode will help you have a more loving relationship with your shadow self because all parts of what makes you, YOU, even the parts that you want to keep in the shadows, needs love.

In this solo episode, I'm sharing three of my favourite practices that helps me to align myself back to the present moment when I'm either future-tripping about fears, or what ifs, or I'm feeling all the emotional feels of something challenging that happened in the past. 

The practices will help you to connect with your body and observe your feelings from the present state.

In this solo share, I'm sharing a practice about connecting with your authentic self. I believe that who we want to be, and what we admire in other people, is actually a part of our authentic selves. We just forget because we don't see ourselves that way. My hope is that practice will help you remember and give you a true north compass to follow.

As a brand photographer, Stacey sees first hand the pressures her clients feel in having to perform. And, as an entrepreneur, she experiences the same pressures.

In this conversation, Stacey and I chat about how we cope with this pressure to constantly perform, not just on social media, but in life. It is a very candid conversation where we just openly share our points of view. Not as experts, but as two entrepreneurs and women who are experiencing the same pressures as you might be experiencing.
