    S2 EP4 WITH KIM MCINTOSH - When Self Trust Feels More Dangerous than Self Abandonment

    Why does trusting yourself sometimes feel more dangerous than abandoning yourself? In EP 17, I'm joined by Kim, a holistic practitioner specializing in energy work and nervous system regulation, to explore why we second-guess our decisions, seek constant reassurance, and look outside ourselves for answers we may already know. We're unpacking the patterns that keep us stuck in the familiar, why change can feel uncomfortable even when we know it's right for us, and how to begin rebuilding self-trust without needing to get everything perfect. Because self-trust isn't about never making the wrong choice. It's about learning to listen to yourself, honor your needs, and stop abandoning yourself in the process. It's time to stop asking everyone else for permission to trust the woman you already are.   Kim Rowland-McIntosh is a holistic healing practitioner, educator, and Registered Massage Therapist with over 20 years of experience helping people reconnect with their body's natural ability to heal. Beginning her career with a foundation in BodyTalk, Kim has developed an integrative approach to wellness that honours the connection between the body, mind, emotions, and energetic systems. Her work focuses on nervous system regulation, stress, releasing limiting beliefs, shifting subconscious patterns, and helping people better understand how their bodies function and respond to life's experiences. Working with both people and animals, Kim is passionate about creating greater balance, supporting the body's natural healing processes, and empowering others with the knowledge and tools to live healthier, more connected lives.

    S2 EP3 Your Anger Has Been Trying to Tell You Something

    What if your anger isn't the problem, but a signal you've been ignoring for far too long? In this episode of The Reclamation Project, we're uncovering the truth about  anger, the resentment that builds when we keep swallowing our needs, crossing our own boundaries, and calling it being understanding. It's time to stop judging yourself for what you feel and start listening to what your anger is trying to tell you. Because reclaiming yourself means learning to honour your truth without abandoning yourself to keep everyone else comfortable. REFLECTIVE QUESTIONS What am I calling fine that I'm actually angry about? Where am I repeatedly saying yes while resenting the fact that I said yes? What truth have I been afraid to communicate? What am I trying to preserve by keeping the peace — and what is it costing me? What is one action I can take that honours what I've learned without acting impulsively?   Join THE MEMBERSHIP Join The Reclamation RESET

    What does choosing yourself actually look like when you're a wife, mother, grandmother, rancher, cattle woman, and business owner?  In this episode, I had the priviledge of sitting with Jackie for a deeply honest conversation about what it means to stop abandoning yourself while still loving, caring for, and sowing up for people who matter most.  Jackie shares her own journey of discovering Whole Balanced Body - and what began to change when she realized that putting everyone else first was coming at a cost to herself.  We talk about the difference between self sacrifice and self abandonment. and how to lear to listen to your body - it can reveal things your mind has learned to ignore and override.  We asked a bigger question:  What did you have to stop believing about yourself in order to start choosing yourself?  Connect with Jackie:  Website: www.theshiftwithjackie.com                 www.aimhealing.ca  Facebook: httos://facebook.com/theshiftwithjackie Connect with Terra:  Want to continue the conversation around building self trust, self abandoment, and choosing yourself?   www.coachterradawn.com  Follow and Rate to help spread the word on this podcast!

    EP14 The Work is Not A Weapon

    Choosing yourself doesn't mean choosing against the people you love.  In this episode, we talk about what happens when healing and healing language - such as boundaries, triggers, nervous system regulation, and self abandonment - become a weapon instead of a tool for connection to self and to your loved ones.  Real healing isn't about being right, avoiding compromise, or diagnosing everyone around you.  It's about accountability, discernment, repair, and learning how to stay loyal to yourself while making room for another person.  Self abandonment isn't the goal - but neither is self obsession  The goal is self loyalty inside the relationship

    EP13 - Choosing Yourself when it costs you Something

    Choosing yourself sounds Empowering... until it costs you something.  In this episode, we're getting real about what happens when choosing yourself means disappointing someone - setting a boundary - walking away - losing approval - or sitting in grief of a decision you know is right for you We talk about why discomfort doesn't always mean you've made the wrong choice, why you may have deveoped a higher tolerance for your own unhappiness than you realize, and how to stop running to self abandonment just because someone else is uncomfortable with your boundaries Choosing yourself isn't about making everyone else happy with your decisions.  This is about refusing to make your own betrayal the price of keeping everyone else comfortable.    Journaling questions:  Where am I tolerating my own unhappiness to keep someone else comfortable?  What am I afriad will happen if I stop?  Whose disappointment am I currently managing?  What feeling am I interpreting as evidence that I've done something wrong?  What would choosing myself look like without making anyone else wrong? Can I tolerate the discomfort long enough to find out what happens next?

    Ep12 Being Chosen vs. Choosing Yourself

    What happens when being chosen becomes more important than choosing?  In this episode, we unpack the hidden self abandonment that happens when you're constantly trying to prove you're loveable - overgiving, overanalyzing, suppressing your needs, and becoming whoever you think someone else will want.  Being wanted isn't the same as being valued It's time to stop asking "Do they choose me?" and start askign "Do I choose this?" This is the reclamation: coming back to yourself, tursting your discernment adn decising who actually deserves access to you.
