info_outlineAre you missing the messages from your authentic self? Inside Part 2 of this incredible conversation with Luke Aeyra, I share a vulnerable snippet of how I neglected and avoided my inner truth and intuition this year.
With Luke's generous support, I share my recent signs, symptoms and emotional rollercoaster experience which lead me to quit the online coaching industry and courageously begin anew. Drawing a line in the sand, undecided and uncertain of what was next, I ruthlessly drafted a new path in my life having finally listened to my truth.
My experience is a empowering example of how our soul speaks to us through the mind, heart and gut centres, as defined in episode Part 1. But, you must be open, willing, committed and slowing down enough to listen.
This 2 part trauma-informed conversation with Luke Aeyra will help you understand and interpret your soul or authentic self from a clinical psychology, psychotherapy and holistic approach.
Press play on this powerful + passionate Part 2 and learn:
- Where to start particularly if you feel daunted or unsure, to slow down and listen more deeply to your authentic self, soul and inner guidance
- How sitting and being with yourself will be THE #1 THING that actually allows BIG shifts to occur, and a better life to unfold
- What happens when we DON'T take the time to listen, or we avoid the messages from our 3 Minds (Listen to Part 1 to find out what the 3 Minds are)
- The importance + value of tuning in to the ways YOUR authentic self is speaking (or screaming) to you
- Luke's Practical Tools for self examination
- Seeking wise counsel and support - before the whisper turns into a scream!
- The signs + symptoms of an Upset Soul vs. An Inspired Life on your own unique path
- My Depression, Misalignment & Suffering: How my authentic self was guiding me to leave the online coaching industry and quit the false bravado, pseudo-phantom connection that comes with owning a business defined by social media
- How I choose body-based guidance over mindset work, enduring more perseverence and faking my mental positivity
"If you're struggling, or just want a better life, getting to know your soul and authentic self is the key to getting there."
