Ep 20: Finding Your Truest Self

The Inner Work of Becoming Your Truest Self | The Power of Being Your Truest Self | Mentor In this episode, my guest is my dear friend, Amey DeAnne, who talks about her HEALing journey to discover her truest self. There’s so much that Amey and I share in our journeys to heal from long marriages, including that part of our survivorship in those relationships caused us to have no idea we needed to heal and no idea who we really are. We also share childhood pain and emotions that came into our marriages without even knowing it. Hear Amey talk about being someone’s something, in several capacities, and being so busy that she was distracted from her true self for many years. Many of us experience this phenomenon where we think we’re just engaging in the normality of adulthood, but is that what we’re doing? Or are we escaping ourselves? If you’re divorced from a relationship of any length of time, much of what we talk about will probably resonate deeply. Highlights of this episode 💛The “norm” of life can be a form of escape. Sometimes, our busy lives distract us from the reality of the state of our relationships, and that we are disconnected from ourselves. What we live as our reality may be a form of escape. 💙Unhealthy vs healthy aloneness. There is a night and day difference between being unhealthy alone, which shows up as being lonely, and being healthy alone, which shows up as being relaxed and comfortable in the quiet. In that peaceful quiet is where we hear God. 💛Divorce is a trauma that we must heal from. We find ourselves in that place for so many different reasons. Regardless of the reason, we must acknowledge that the experience is a trauma, a macro trauma filled with micro traumas. HEALing allows us to go on with our lives in a healthy way. 💙Divorce can be a blessing. When we’ve been with another person for any length of time, we can lose ourselves by either taking on their identity, taking on “our” identity, and/or letting go of who we are. Divorce allows us to discover our truest selves. 💛Find your truest self. This is Amey’s mission today, where she shares her lived experiences with other women to encourage them to do the work to heal and find their truest self.
