Well boo, I had MORE to say! So here's Part 2!
In this episode, I dived deeper into my unexpected love affair with fiction and dark fantasy romance and why putting down personal development books has been the most healing, activating and expansive thing I’ve done lately.
I talk about:
- Why “working on yourself” can quietly turn into forcing yourself to grow (and why that’s a problem)
- How self-help books were keeping me stuck in my head, feeding my perfectionism, and making me force life to happen
- The subtle but powerful difference between always being on and feeling turned on
- How dark fantasy romance dropped me into my body, reawakened my senses, and made me feel more alive
- The way fiction has also shifted my client work (making it more powerful!) from digging into wounds to fine-tuning energy and amplifying aliveness
- Why you don’t have to pause your life to heal since true healing will rise naturally when it’s time
- How to know when it’s time to stop “fixing” yourself and start making love to your life
If you’ve been living in your head, stuck in the loop of constant self-analysis after years of doing the inner/shadow work, this episode is here to tell you to get out of the loop, feel again, and let pleasure lead the way.
