We’re closing out Week One, Day 7 of the Shadow Work Video Series, mi gente.
This week we’ve been sitting in the EAST of the Medicine Wheel — the realm of the mind. This is where our mental shadows live… our beliefs, our conditioning, our ancestral programs.

Today’s reflection is simple but potent:
👉 What’s a limiting belief that once protected you… but now cages you?

Maybe it kept you safe at one point. Maybe it helped you survive.
But ahora? It’s just holding you hostage.

So today, we release it.
Write it down.
Light your candle.
Burn that shit.
And say it out loud:
“This no longer owns me. I am free.”

🔥 The contract with survival mode is officially OVER.
You’re not here to stay small.
Step out of the cage — and into your freedom.

Today’s question cuts deep:
✨ What truth am I terrified to speak out loud?

This one?
Not for the faint of heart.

This is for the brave soul who is exhausted from shrinking.
Tired of hiding.
Tired of betraying their own spirit just to keep everyone else comfortable.

Because the truth you’re afraid to say?
That’s not the problem.

That’s the doorway.
That’s the key.
That’s the medicine.

In this episode, I don’t just speak my truth—I claim it.
I cast it.
I breathe life back into the parts of myself that were silenced for survival.

And I invite you to do the same.

Because when you finally name what you’ve been avoiding…
When you dare to say the unspeakable…
When you stop swallowing your truth to keep the peace…

That’s when real healing begins.

So don’t rush this one.
Sit with it.
Say it out loud—even if your voice shakes.
Let it move through your body. Let it rewrite your reality.

Your truth isn’t here to destroy you.
It’s here to set you free.

✨

Today’s question is simple… and dangerous in the best way:
✨ What story do I tell about myself that keeps me small?

Bebé… we need to talk.
And I’m saying this with love—and a little tough tía energy.

That whole “I’m just not that type of person” narrative?
Yeah… that’s probably not your personality.

That’s your trauma costume, mami.
And you’ve been wearing it so long, you think it’s your skin.

You’re not “too shy.”
You were trained to be quiet.

You’re not “not a leader.”
You were taught it wasn’t safe to be powerful.

You’re not “low maintenance.”
You just got used to not being prioritized.

Let’s be real for a second.
Half the internet is out here selling self-love in cute Canva quotes while still living in “I’m not the type” trauma loops.

And you?
You’re over here convincing yourself you’re not made for more—when the truth is, you ARE the more.
You just don’t recognize yourself without the shrinkage.

So today, we rip up the script.

Ask yourself:
👉🏽 What story am I telling myself that’s keeping me small?
👉🏽 Who gave me that story?
👉🏽 And what would change if I stopped believing it?

You do not owe loyalty to the version of you that was built on survival.
It’s safe to outgrow the coping mechanisms that got you here.
It’s safe to be loud, seen, soft, powerful, and tender—all at the same time.

Because let’s be honest…

The “small” you?
That was never the real you anyway.

Drop the story that’s gotta GO.
We’re burning that sh*t together. 🔥
