Inner Work: A Spiritual Growth Podcast Josephine Hardman, PhD

This episode is going out to you if you've been feeling lonely, isolated, or disconnected lately. Being human can feel like a lonely experience sometimes, especially if we forget that we're an integral part of this Universe - and that everything is interconnected.
I share my own recent struggles with loneliness and talk about:
the difficulty of making friends as an adult how you can be surrounded by people and still feel lonely how moving, changing schools, changing careers, working from home, and other circumstances can make you feel more isolated  how technology has made our lives more convenient but also separated us from each other being ok with feelings of loneliness as part of the human experience (and as something that unites us!)

Have you ever allowed someone else's mess - their messy relationship, life decisions, chaotic living, clutter, chronic lateness, etc - destroy your inner peace? Or have you ever judged YOURSELF for being "messy" as a human?
This episode is all about re-framing our understanding of the word "mess", so you won't allow anyone else's mess to destroy your inner peace and you won't judge yourself or others for being "messy" either.
I talk about:
the real-life scenario that triggered my ego and sparked this topic idea! (it involves a missed appointment) how we sometimes too quickly interpret an event as bad, wrong, or messy - when in fact it's happening in service of our healing or growth how to detach yourself from other people's "messes" so you can allow them to learn whatever they need to learn, while sustaining your inner peace rescuer/fixer patterns that might be causing you issues - such as a pattern of jumping in to rescue people financially Thank you for tuning in and spending this time with me!

In this episode of INNER WORK, I talk about how to tell the difference between information truly coming from the Akashic Records versus information (or distractions) coming from your ego.
I address:
the 5 main ways you can tell information is genuinely coming from the Akashic Records (or not) potential ego distractions that might block your ability to receive why and how your ego might try to prevent you from growing or healing why time-specific or predictive info is typically NOT coming from the Records important characteristics of genuine Akashic Record readings Explore my Akashic Records Certification Program: https://josephinehardman.com/work-with-me/akashic-records-certification-program/

Introducing a brand new series on this podcast... EVOLUTION.
Your healing journey is a process of continual, ongoing evolution. Of you becoming more evolved every day. Of you evolving beyond old patterns, habits, dysfunctions, defense mechanisms, belief systems, and self-imposed limitations. Evolving beyond the past. Evolving beyond anything that isn't truthfully YOU, at your highest level.
In this inaugural episode of EVOLUTION, I address the topic of judgment - of both self and others. I talk about:
how the meaning of the word "judgment" has changed over time how judgment is a form of punishment (and self-punishment) how we sometimes use judgment to try to feel more powerful, better, smarter, or more capable than others  how the impulse to judge arises from a hurt, offended, threatened, or scared ego how we've used judgment in human societies to try to bond with others - but why it's not an authentic form of relating I want to thank Doug for suggesting this topic and being a loyal supporter of Inner Work.

Are you using the past to victimize yourself? 
Do you often repeat stories like, "if my parents had done (or not done) XYZ when I was growing up, I would be so much better off today..." or "because I was cheated on 5 years ago, I can't trust men now..." or "if I had gone to school 20 years ago, my life would be better now..."?
These are stories where we use the past - and whatever happened - to victimize and limit ourselves, unconsciously, in the present.
In this episode, I share a story of school bullying from my past and how I've used that story to justify my lack of trust in women as an adult. It's a vulnerable episode!
We'll also talk about how to start detaching from these limiting stories so you can be free, happy, and at peace NOW. (Which is the only thing that really matters.)
