    Feb 12

    Episode 11: Love Your True Self and Meditation

    ✨ Beautiful souls, welcome to today’s episode.   Today we’re talking about something that sounds simple, but is actually one of the deepest and most courageous practices there is: Loving your true self is not being selfish ✨ Mindset Shift Guidance ~ Love Your True Self 1. Where in my life am I still relating to myself through expectation rather than truth? 2. What parts of me have been shaped by adaptation rather than choice? 3. When do I feel most like myself, without effort or performance? 4. What am I quietly longing to give myself permission for? Not someday, now. 5. If I trusted my inner authority completely, what small but meaningful change would I make next? ✨ Empowerment Statement ~  You Are the Spark ~ Loving your true self isn’t a destination. It’s a relationship to the self. One that deepens as you listen, honor, and respond. You don’t need to become someone else. You don’t need to earn this love. Your true self has been here all along, patient, steady, and ready to be met. ✨  About Kohava, I coach midlife women, holistic and wellness service providers, who feel stuck, scattered, or overwhelmed.

    Episode 10: Confidence Through Self-Trust: The Courage to Be Yourself & meditation

    ✨ Beautiful souls, welcome to today’s episode.   Confidence Through Self-Trust: The Courage to Be Yourself.  The New Moon invites expansion. Not the kind that comes from doing more or pushing harder, but the kind that comes from trusting yourself enough to follow what feels true. Today we’re talking about confidence, but not the kind that comes from having all the answers or knowing exactly how the future will unfold. Confidence grows when you trust your answers even before you have proof. ✨ Mindset Shift Guidance ~ Confidence Through Self-Trust When do I feel most confident in my life right now? What is my inner voice asking me to acknowledge right now? In what ways do I try to be “good enough” to gain approval? What would it feel like to let myself be real instead of perfect? What is one small, brave step I could take this week? ✨ Empowerment Statement ~  You Are the Spark ~ Confidence doesn’t come from knowing what will happen next. It comes from trusting that you will handle whatever comes your way. Self-trust is built one honest choice at a time. One boundary, one brave moment.  ✨  About Kohava, I coach midlife women, holistic and wellness service providers, who feel stuck, scattered, or overwhelmed.
