Permission to Disappoint: On Women Embracing New Self Identity

from Natalia Benson · host Natalia Benson

I’m here to extend an invitation I know a lot of women struggle with: giving yourself the permission to disappoint. As women, we are taught to always be palatable, even at the expense of our own autonomy or desires. Today’s conversation will open your eyes to reinvention, self ownership, identity, and desire as a spiritual tool for healing and transformation. I share powerful ways to honor and embrace new self identity, regardless of societal expectations or disappointment, and step into total ownership of who you are and how far you’ve come.I also break down the fears I know hold so many of us back, whether it’s the fear of not being liked, not being accepted, or the fear of allowing ourselves to desire. These fears keep us small, but when we tap into + own our deepest desires, that’s when real magic happens.This is your time to honor yourself, take ownership of want you want and who you’re meant to be, and stop fearing disappointment from the things that were never meant to serve you!WE EXPLORE ✧ Why giving yourself the permission to disappoint is your power. ✧ Honoring the self, ego, and other with the Aries-Libra axis. ✧ How to own your most audacious self outside of societal expectations. ✧ The inner work it takes to reinvent + embrace your self identity as a woman. ✧ What it looks like to operate in need versus desire. ✧ The most powerful way to own your deepest desires.FOLLOWConnect on Instagram: @natalia_bensonJoin the mailing list: https://nataliabenson.myflodesk.com/nb-astrolistRESOURCESApply to work with me 1:1: https://nataliabenson.com/work-with-nbExplore the Money Membership: https://magicalwomenandmoney.com/Support the show
