In this heart-opening episode of Five Lemons Laughing, the Lemonettes return for part 3 of our “Standing in Your Power” series. This week, we explore what it means to consciously claim authorship of your story — not the one someone else handed you, but the one your soul is here to live.
We ask the big questions:
-
What role are you playing in your life story — and is it the one you want?
-
What old scripts or labels no longer serve you?
-
How does owning your story change how you show up every day?
✨ You’ll hear vulnerable stories of shifting from victimhood to empowerment, letting go of attachments to outcome, and choosing peace over performance.
✨ We dive into spiritual tools like emotional awareness, the witness perspective, and declaring what is not your story.
✨ We remind each other — and you — that the pen is in your hands. What you write next is up to you.
Whether you identify as the heroine, the light of the world, or the joyful shaman, this episode invites you to own your identity, your power, and your path.
