Spoiler alert, she had to do the work to get to know herself and she shares with us her journey of acceptance and self-loveThe inspiration behind her book, We’ll All Be Free, and how getting in alignment and not forcing the process allowed her to write her book. We discuss the importance of surrender and following your soul’s authentic blueprint How we can distinguish when we are not in alignment, recognize resistance and pivot when necessary The importance of confronting our pain, shame, trauma and challenges and how we can find freedom when we allow ourselves to heal and process our experiences. AND why we must have compassion and grace with others understanding that we are all on our own healing journeys. How white supremacy culture contributes to our feelings of unworthiness and not feeling good enough and what we can do to begin to heal and unlearn this programming. The quote I mentioned (butchered) during the episode: “When I dare to be powerful—to use my strength in the service of my vision—then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.” -Audre LordeCONNECT WITH CAROLINE:Caroline's book can and work can be found here: https://www.carolinejsumlin.com/bookGET FREE RESOURCES FROM CAROLINE HERE!:https://view.flodesk.com/pages/64487709b3fdc50fdc8b0f7eLI: Connect with Caroline hereSupport the showIMPORTANT LINKS AND RESOURCES: Discover Where You Are Getting Stuck In Your Business, By Taking My Free 3-minute quiz: https://confusionloop.com/ Women Entrepreneurs, schedule your free Clarity Call here Learn more about Move And Still's service offerings: https://movexstill.com/ CONNECT WITH DOM: Learn about Transformation YOUniversity, my 12-week biz coaching program for women entrepreneurs at https://domrclifton.com/coaching-for-women/ IG - @DominieceRClifton LI- Dominiece R.
