Episode 22

In this episode, Taylor Sleaford and I discuss the importance of men's work and women's work and how embracing our whole, mature selves can beautifully transform our lives and relationships. We'll uncover the challenges men face with the 'too much' wound—learning to trust and open up to their emotions, which not only heals them but also strengthens their connections with their brothers and within relationships. For women, we discuss the struggles of feeling unseen and unsupported in their vulnerabilities, and how this can shape their independence & authentic expression. This episode is all about nurturing self-leadership and cultivating a deep, trusting relationship with oneself so you can enhance your relationships with others. We also talk about how to feel more supported and how to use your discernment when leaning on others.We share strategies for self-regulating, creating grounding environments and managing triggers. This conversation is an important one!
