Embracing Your Authentic Self: Practicing Self-Compassion in Real Life with Progress Not Perfection

In this episode of Recover Your Soul, I open up about the real and sometimes painful work of loving ourselves fully—both the light and the shadow. We live in a world that says “be authentic,” while at the same time pushing perfection through filters, quick fixes, and unrealistic expectations. It’s no wonder we feel torn between who we really are and who we think we’re supposed to be.
Through the lens of Soul Recovery, we explore what happens when we stop criticizing ourselves with words we’d never say to a friend, and instead begin practicing self-compassion in real life. Together, we’ll look at the deeper patterns and beliefs that keep us stuck in not-enoughness, and how those wounds can finally be revealed and healed.
Your soul already knows the truth—you are whole, holy, and perfectly enough as you are. When we choose love over fear and release the need to live up to others’ expectations, we remember our sovereignty and step into our unlimited nature.
Join me in this conversation about authenticity, aging, self-compassion, and the courage to honor yourself for exactly who you are. You are remembering your wholeness, and in that remembering, you are free.
