All Humans Are Inherently Good | Pleasure & Power Recoded Episode 4

Episode 4: We Are Inherently Good — Reclaiming Power Through Self-Compassion** In this powerful and soul-searching episode of Pleasure & Power Recoded, co-hosts Lucy Hutchings Hunt and Elizabeth Gilmore unpack the deeply ingrained belief that humans are inherently bad — a narrative long perpetuated by religious, societal, and cultural conditioning. Together, they challenge this distortion by affirming the truth of our innate goodness, and explore how shame and judgment — especially self-judgment — often manifest as judgment of others. Through intimate stories, vulnerable reflection, and energetic truths, Lucy and Elizabeth dive into themes of spiritual evolution, emotional projection, co-parenting dynamics, and the alchemy of turning pain into power. They reflect on moments of judgment, healing from divorce, navigating political and social triggers, and the energetic shifts that occur when we stop trying to fix others and begin meeting our own wounds with love. This episode is an invitation to soften — to look at ourselves and others through the lens of compassion, and to reclaim our power by remembering who we truly are: divine, creative, and inherently good. ✨ *Highlights include:* * How unconscious self-judgment drives criticism of others * Reframing conflict through energy shifts and emotional ownership * Personal stories of transformation through compassion and softening * The myth of the “sinner” and reclaiming spiritual truth beyond religious dogma * Recognising and healing the people-pleaser pattern * How changing our own energy can miraculously shift relationships and realities This episode is for you if: * You’re doing shadow work or healing from shame * You’ve been navigating relationship triggers, co-parenting, or personal boundaries * You’re exploring spiritual truth beyond religious constructs * You want to understand how to use your own energy as a powerful tool for change Listen now and step into the soft, glowing power of embodied compassion.
