On Today's Episode:
The heartache after a bad breakup, the pain of being rejected, the suffering that comes along with hiding and not fully showing up as yourself, and the disappointment of not speaking up for yourself (again) makes us feel powerless and less than. If you’re in that space right now, or want to make sure you never return to that space again, healing yourself and finding your voice is crucial. Your life, your freedom, and your future is depending on you.

QUOTES:
“There’s nothing wrong with not constantly being that shining light on everyone and everything.” [2:25]
“Saying no to a person in power, when you’re here and they’re up here, is not that same as saying no to a person who’s at your level of power. Consent is not the same when there’s power involved.” [9:06]
“I decided to put this person aside and let this person flourish.” [13:07]
“To start the healing process, healing couldn’t begin if I was ashamed of my story.” [14:41]
“Every victim of any form of abuse is someone to someone, is worthy of being heard…” [18:48]
“My most powerful asset was my truth at that point, there was nothing to hide.” [21:30]
“The one who broke you cannot heal you. You have to heal you.” [31:42]
“We give people the power to break us, [...] you give the power to someone to love you and you give the power to someone to break you. It’s their choice with what they do.” [34:05]
“Boundaries aren’t about being in protection mode. Boundaries are about knowing that what you have within is so valuable that you will not allow certain people to come near it, [...] they stem from self-worth.” [37:57]
“If pain is knocking at your door and you deal with the pain and take it out of the way, you’re allowing room for yourself to see and feel that happiness that’s waiting at your door.” [56:44]
“Self-love is picturing the person that you love the most and telling yourself, ‘I will not treat myself any less than I will treat this person.’” [1:06:44]
“The emptiness we feel on the inside doesn’t mean that we have nothing left within us, it just means that what we created we placed outside of us…” [1:16:27]
“When you need love, don’t sit there on the floor, in your bathtub, in your bedroom with your phone by your side waiting for someone to magically write a couple words…” [1:23:28]
You don’t deserve to have someone’s burdens placed on your back for them to believe you love them.” [1:25:11]
“The price of someone loving you should not be you not loving you.” [1:25:44]
