The Secrets That Are Still With Us with Elaine Morgan

The way we grow up shapes our hearts and minds. As little girls, we learn fundamental human skills from our family and friends that shape us: how to love, be kind, share, communicate, and trust our intuition. We learn what to believe and we model what we learn. We're super porous during these peak learning years. Everything we experience has an affect on our minds and bodies, for better or worse. And, as adults, we get to choose what we do with whatever it is that we learn.In this episode, you'll hear from the amazing and soulful Elaine Morgan who courageously shares her story of thriving on the other side of childhood, where she was raised as a Jehovah's Witness. Elaine vulnerably shares what it was like to grow up in a world of repression, confusion, fear, and emotional poverty in a family awaiting armageddon.  She reflects on the secrets she held and the mindset of never being good enough. Elaine also talks about the curiosity and determination that have been a fundamental part of who she's always been. She connects us with the role these qualities have played in helping her navigate her life to now. Elaine shares early lessons of persistent rejection. She talks about how they've shown up across her life and ironically, how they fueled her successful sales career, across multiple software companies, including LinkedIn. And, you will hear how Elaine overrode her early neural conditioning to become a thriving woman and loving Momma. And, as she reflects on her life long journey of mindfulness and healing, she sums it all up with one of Carrie Bradshaw's most kick ass quotes.Connect with Elaine on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elaine-morgan-6269763 Outside sources referenced in this episode:Under The Banner of Heaven by Jon KrakauerSex In The CityLoved this?
