Have you been taught that you have to earn rest? That it is a luxury and not a necessity? If you have, I'm here to tell you that's false. We are worthy and deserving of rest and should be prioritizing it. Join me as I discuss why you may not be giving yourself permission to rest and how you can overcome this. Tune in!

Healing is a necessary part of growth, however it’s possible to be doing too much healing work. When you become hyper-focused on working through traumas, you will burn yourself out. Rest is equally as important as the work you do for healing. Take a pit stop on the journey. You are allowed to do that. Remember this is a journey, not a destination. Join me as I discuss the importance of taking a break in your healing journey and what that looks like. Tune in!

Have you ever had to move on without receiving the apology you know you deserve? We’ve all been there and let’s be real— it hurts. While it doesn’t feel good, we have to accept and move on.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but hyper-independence is a result of trauma. Your “I don’t need anyone; I can’t depend on anyone; I have to do everything myself” really means your needs may not have been met and people have failed you, so as a response, you’ve learned to be your own support. You do need people and you don’t have to do everything by yourself. Tune in to this episode as I discuss hyper-independence, some signs and how we can overcome it.

You will never be wrong for putting yourself first or prioritizing your needs. We are so used to overextending, that actually choosing ourselves and putting our needs first feels like we are doing something wrong. Let’s move away from that. Release that.

The journey back home or back to self includes healing those inner child wounds and reparenting yourself. Reparenting looks different for everyone. For me it looks like being gentle with myself, unlearning toxicity, mirror work, and no longer tolerating people or spaces I don't feel safe with/in. Join me as I dive deep in how reparenting myself has been healing my inner child and how you can begin to do the work as well.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/growing-gardenias/message
Reflection of the previous year, gratitude for the lessons learned, and excitement for the blessings to come. The main lessons I’m taking with me into this new season are 1) choose yourself, 2) it’s okay to walk away from people/situations that are no longer serving you, and 3) listen to yourself the first time. 2023 is the year for community healing. We are going to continue elevating this season, together. If you enjoyed this episode, follow the show for more and please leave me a rate/review! Thank you for sharing space with me.
