16 | How to show up more authentically in your life

In this solo episode, Nadia gets vulnerable and shares one of the wounds she’s been working through in her own life: a deep-seated fear of rejection. We are wired for love and connection. One of the most fundamantal human needs is belonging. And that is why disconnection can be such a detrimental blow to our emotional wellbeing. In today’s society, kids are often ostracized or made fun of when they stick out in any way. It then becomes difficult in adulthood to dredge up our uniqueness, because in many instances we learned to suppress our natural gifts in our early years.  Nadia shares openly about a few experiences from her childhood that led her to unconsciously develop a habit of keeping people at arm’s length. She shares how she’s learning to let people in, to feel safe being seen, and source self-worth within herself rather than unconsciously seeking external validation. It’s been a long road, y’all! And it will continue to be a lifelong journey.  Also in this episode:  Working with your dreams to heal childhood experiences How to reparent yourself, giving your inner child what they needed back then now Soul purpose is often cultivated through the pain you’ve experienced and ultimately alchemize for others to learn from Learning how to keep people in your life by consistently watering and tending to your “relationship garden" Mentioned: Journey of Souls by Michael Newton The next cohort of Soul Group is launching September 7th.
