The Sovereign Leader Podcast

Episode 2: Being “too much” and the truth you were never taughtWelcome back to The Sovereign Leader Podcast, podcast for high-achieving spiritual women who are done performing and ready to lead from their own centre with anchored and embodied authority. Together, through raw, but grounded conversation, we intend to share what it truly means to lead yourself from sovereignty - especially when you've spent years managing everyone else's energy in order to feel safe and most likely in order to keep the peace.In this episode, Joy and I dive into what it means to be labelled “too much” - too emotional, too sensitive, too expressive, too visible, too powerful.Because the truth is, you weren't born believing that about yourself.You learned it.We explore how old paradigm leadership taught so many of us to perform, mask, shrink, self-monitor and keep the peace in order to be accepted. This conversation is a reclamation.A remembering that you are not too much. You may simply have been in rooms, relationships and environments that couldn't hold the fullness of who you are.In this episode, we explore:- why “too much” is learned- the cost of masking and self-policing- the difference between responding and reacting- why other people’s triggers are not your responsibility- what it means to stand in your truth without making yourself smaller.If this episode stirred something in you (and we have a feeling it might have), we’d love to hear from you.Come and share what’s come up for you - what you’re seeing differently, what you're now able to accept of yourself, and where you’re choosing yourself.You can find Jen at revitalisecoaching.co.ukAnd Joy at radicaljoyfulness.comThank you for being here, and for walking this path of sovereignty with us.
