It's easy to create a story around chronic health conditions, chronic pain, any pain or distress we're feeling.
But that story might be fueling the level of distress we experience.
When we can de-identify with the story, we find ways of living with it with less emotional distress.
Episode 14 dives deep into working with our systems to help us live more fully everyday.

I’ve worked with lots of other helpers. Unfortunately, they usually come to me for help because they can’t keep going at the same pace—saying yes more often than no and with little to no time to take care of themselves—it’s no longer sustainable.

In my recent blog, 𝑊ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝐸𝑚𝑝𝑎𝑡ℎ𝑦 𝑖𝑠 𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝐾𝑟𝑦𝑝𝑡𝑜𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑒, I share more about 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬.

Helping others can feel good and very hard at the same time. You’re so attuned to other’s needs. You end up giving and giving, and that primes you for burnout. And if you’re a highly sensitive empath, getting burnt out is an even greater possibility.

You want to help—that’s why you’ve chosen our career path, or become the go-to person for family, friends and coworkers. You know, 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤 what it’s like to struggle and you want to give others the chance to feel better. And because you want to help, it’s hard to say no.

When you’ve filled your cup, you have enough to give to your clients, coworkers, family, and friends. And anyone else who needs taking care of.

Self-compassion has been one of the best things I've learned to practice and embody. Because a lot of shame can show up around not feeling well, getting easily overwhelmed, and feeling everything so deeply.

When I can be kind to myself, and know in my heart this is just me in my humanness and sensitivity , it eases and releases some of the shame I took on over the years.

What does your system need from you?

When we feel shame, it's a protective part of us that wants to keep us from feeling the hurt and pain.
It's often shielding a younger part that was shamed, or felt shame in the past.
When we can bring some curiosity to the shaming part we can help it release some of it soften it's approach, and heal the pain beneath it.

Your body is wise 🙏🏽
It's where your intuition lives.
It's where your needs make themselves know.
It can tell you so much, but you need to be listening to hear it.
This week on the podcast I talk about childhood trauma and how is can disrupt your connection to your body and ways to restore your energetic alignment.

Getting back in touch with those foundational qualities you were born with, like love, acceptance, kindness, joy, and awe can help you feel more alive.

I can remember a time when making a decision was really hard. Instead of listening to myself, I'd try to figure out what people wanted.

Trying to meet other's needs was so ingrained that I lost a sense of me and my own needs.

It left me feeling indecisive all the time!

I wanted everyone to be happy, but how could I be happy if I wasn't taking care of me and listening to myself?

When you take the time and space to listen to you'll find the answers are there.
