053 - Taking Back Your Power

Talk to us, Shero! Talk to us!Glamour can feel like safety—until it isn’t. Using the movie Blink Twice as our lens, we explore how charm, access, and curated beauty can quietly become control. We unpack grooming, normalization, and the intoxicating pull of proximity to power—and why belonging so often outranks intuition.We share personal stories of staying silent to keep harmony and of challenging authority at a cost. Like the film’s paradise, systems ask for small surrenders until your voice fades. We talk about gaslighting, self-doubt, and the fear of exile that keeps us nodding along—then pivot to rebuilding self-trust through mindful pauses, body-based yes/no checks, and boundaries practiced before they’re needed.Taking your power back isn’t aggression—it’s clarity. It might mean leaving a room, declining an invitation, or choosing spaces that can hold your truth. If you're will, we'd love to hear how have you experienced taking your power back?Thank you so much for the likes, love, and comments you leave. Not only does it mean the world to us, it helps other women who need to hear it be able to find it.#womenempoweringwomen#youmatter#makeadifference---CONNECT with Shero Cafe--- Subscribe: www.SheroCafe.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shero.cafe.podcast/Email: [email protected] with Deborah Edwards--- Let's Connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deborah.edwards.372Self Care Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/624202641785785Website: https://gratefulom.life/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborahedwards-selfcarecoach/---CONNECT with Debbie Pearson---Website: https://www.debbiepearson.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DebbiePearsonCoachingSubstack:  https://debpearsonwriter.substack.com Email: [email protected]
