[296] Shedding to Shinning - Releasing Self-Beliefs, Feeling Your Feelings and Accepting New Oppo...

Описание: The world feels heavy, the snow won’t quit, and emotions sit closer to the surface than usual—so we decided to name it, feel it, and turn it into momentum. We trace a powerful arc from the year of the snake to the year of the horse, unpacking why this transition can stir grief, restlessness, and a craving for renewal. Instead of forcing positivity, we get honest about the last six years, the hope that keeps returning, and the very human need to lay down what no longer fits before we pick up speed.

I share the story behind my favorite Barbados mug and the retreat energy we’re bringing into May: confidence, sisterhood, and the courage to show up as the truest version of ourselves. From there, we dig into the work of shedding. You’ll get simple, grounded rituals to release looping fears and rigid opinions—write it down, burn or bury it, breathe it out—and embodied practices that help emotions move through your body rather than getting stuck in your throat and shoulders. We talk candidly about motherhood and identity, how old judgments can become cages, and why cracking the door on a once impossible desire can change your entire trajectory.

Then comes initiation. The horse year is about action, not endless wishing. We lay out what messy action looks like in real life and why rest is strategic fuel, not a setback. Think fewer screens, more sleep, tiny creative moments, and the confidence that grows when you keep small promises to yourself. By the end, you’ll have prompts to decide what you’re leaving behind, language to speak your next step out loud, and a renewed sense that your energy matters in a world that needs your voice.

If this resonates, send me a DM to share what you’re releasing, grab one of the final retreat spots, or ask about a Human Design reading. And if you’re loving Selfish Confidence, subscribe, share this episode with a friend, and leave a quick review—it helps more women find the courage to act.
