Giving Away our Power

From childhood, we're often taught to give away our power. Think about being told to hug someone when you didn’t want to. Moments like that teach us to override our instincts and give up control. As we grow, this pattern repeats, in school, at work, even in our daily choices. It becomes so automatic, we might not realize we’re doing it.But giving away our energy isn’t a requirement for connection. True power comes from listening to that inner voice...the one we’ve ignored too often. Small steps, like honoring what we want or speaking up against an inappropriate joke, help us reclaim it.Keeping our power doesn’t mean being aggressive. Aggression stems from fear, but balance stems from confidence. When we trust ourselves, we realize we don’t need to follow every trend or meet every demand. By honoring our inner voice, we find balance, integrity, and the freedom to live life on our own terms.Support the show
