In this new episode of the Power For Good podcast, I want to talk about something that has been an important part of my healing journey - Forgiveness. 
 
Have there been instances in your life where you found it difficult to forgive someone? Moreover, have you been able to forgive yourself for situations you had no control over? We are not always proud of the things we indulge in when we are young. But does that mean we deserve the punishment? I used to feel ashamed and guilty but I knew my past cannot hold me back and it was time to forgive myself.
 
While experiencing my recent breathwork journey, I realized I was haunted by my past trauma. When I was a teenager, a guy took advantage of me. I had forgiven the guy for what he did yet I hadn’t forgiven myself... I was running away from the pain and guilt. 
 
Today, I am sharing with you how I managed to find the power to forgive others and myself through Breathwork, Reflection, Empathy, and Letting go of Expectations. 
In today’s episode: 
 
(00:45) Intro;
(01:31) My recent Breathwork Journey;
(03:06) My Realization;
(05:38 - 07:15) Rae Rituals - Embracing The Healing Journey (ad);
(7:16) Steps to Forgiveness
(10:10) Outro
 
 
Quotes:
 
“Forgiveness is an incredibly important step in the healing journey and is incredibly challenging.”
 
“One of the most challenging parts of forgiveness for me has been forgiving myself.”
 
“The message in my breathwork journey was to forgive yourself, it’s time to stop punishing yourself.”
 
“I didn’t know that I needed to forgive myself for something that happened so long ago.”
 
“Forgiveness is not weak. It’s not letting someone off the hook. It’s replenishing my life, opening my heart, building my compassion.... it dissolves my anger, my depression, and anxiety.”
 
“The antidote to trauma is Forgiveness.”
 
“Release those weights of resentment, shame, guilt, and anger with forgiveness.”
 
“The act of forgiving always includes forgiving yourself.”
 
“Forgive yourself, forgive others, and remember it’s for YOU.”
 
“Let the forgiveness set you free.”

In this new episode of the Power For Good podcast, I want to talk about Relationships: Friendships, Toxic Relationships and Transformation.
 
How do you protect your energy as you go through a transformation? When unexpected change comes about, are you prepared to love yourself and choose yourself over people that prove to be jealous or unhappy with your new found power?
 
When I was on my healing journey and I started to turn my life around, I realized I was losing friends along the way. But, that was a good thing! It made room in my life for people who truly loved me. For people who weren’t afraid to grow with me, and to ask those same uncomfortable questions that made me realize how disconnected I was from my life to that point.
 
Today, I am sharing with you how I managed to let go of relationships that no longer served me and learned to be stronger with Awareness and Compassion. 
 
 
In today’s episode: 
 
(00:45) Intro;
(01:24) My story of Leveling Up;

(07:09) My realization;
(08:54) I often ask myself;
(10:22) My reason to start the “Power For Good” Podcast;
(13:00) Outro
 
 
Quotes:
 
“Sometimes people don’t love when you level up.”
 
“When you are doing well, when you are in a relationship, when you are getting sober, when you are getting healthier... there maybe people who are not going to be happy for you, they might keep you down.”
 
“People might try to keep you the same and its not because they are bad people, its because when you do these things you become a mirror.”
 
“We are all here to reflect each other.”
 
“Too often we believe everything is about us but in reality its not.”
 
“I realized I had to stop getting offended and I had to have compassion.”
 
“Let them go and maybe eventually they’ll come back around.”
 
“Its important to protect our energy.”
 
“Think about how can you surround yourself with people who are going to support you, who are gonna build you up, who are gonna make you feel energized.”
 
“We are all on our own journey. There is no better or worse.”
 
“I used to push people to drink with me.”
 
“Change for anyone has to come from within.”
 
“It doesn’t matter what somebody says to you. If you don’t believe it, its not gonna happen again .”
 
 
“You can’t push people to go on the healing journey with you to evolve, to change, to be on the journey you think that they should be on .You have to let them go at their own pace.”
 
“Keep shining! Keep on your journey and fill your cup so full that its literally overflowing.”
 
“Focus on you. That’s the only way you can help others to continue focusing on you.”

In this new episode of the Power For Good podcast, I want to talk about Fear.
 
What scares you? What makes you wanna hide from the world? What makes you wanna run the other way? What is fear even? Fear has been an important theme in my life. Facing my fears and overcoming my fears has changed who I am.
 
I think fear can actually be healthy. It can be utilized like all emotions. I really believe when we lean into our fears we can come out on the other side stronger and more powerful. But I also think that it can become a limitation for us and so I want to just dive into what fear really is and why it continues to hold some of us back.
 
I want to share with you why it held me back for a long time in my life and how I managed to overcome it.
