Ep 2 - From Carrying the Load to Overflow

Welcome back to The Self-Love Path. In this solo episode, I dive deep into the invisible loads we carry as women, mamas, and multi-passionate humans—the mental, emotional, physical, and energetic weight that keeps us stuck in survival mode. I break down the three categories of what we carry, share vulnerable real-life examples, and introduce the Triple P Loop (perfectionism, proving, productivity) that keeps us disconnected from ourselves. Then I guide you through five powerful practices to shift from energy drain to overflow—including a live breathwork session you can do right now. I close with a signature poem reading, “Meet Me Here Now,” to bring us back into presence.Key Moments:[1:28] What it means to carry the load | [1:59] The 3 categories of what we carry | [6:37] What happens when we carry it all | [6:58] The Triple P Loop | [7:53] Practice 1: Make the invisible load visible | [13:35] Practice 2: Parts check-ins | [16:20] Practice 3: Breathwork | [21:49] Live guided breathwork session | [24:23] Practice 4: Boundaries for energy leaks | [26:16] Practice 5: Finding glimmers, joy & magic | [29:28] Poetry reading: “Meet Me Here Now”Connect with Melissa:✨ Website: melissaforselflove.com✨ Instagram: @radiantmelissaspratt✨ Book a Self-Love Clarity Call: https://calendly.com/hello-melissaforselflove/claritycall✨ Substack: The Self-Love Path This is a public episode.
