Cricket Chirp #1 : Inner Child Healing for Unbreakable Boundaries
Welcome to the first Cricket Chirp! In this bite-sized episode, I dive into an eye-opening “aha” moment about the power of unbreakable boundaries and what it truly takes to create them. Imagine boundaries so solid that they reflect your deepest self-worth and self-love—sounds amazing, right? But here’s the truth: I didn’t always have these unbreakable boundaries. It wasn’t until I started my journey of inner child healing—reparenting the different parts of me that were neglected, shamed, or gaslit—that I was able to build strong, authentic boundaries. It’s all about giving our inner selves the love and validation we missed and learning to recognize the patterns that no longer serve us. If you’ve been struggling to maintain healthy boundaries or find yourself stuck in toxic relationships, this episode is for you. I’ll plant the seed on the importance of healing those inner children within, which might be blocking you from living your truest, most empowered life. Stay tuned for more on reparenting, inner child work, and how to create boundaries that support the real you. 💪 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe and hit the notification bell so you won’t miss upcoming episodes.
