“Vulnerability is freedom, it is healing, it is powerful, it is necessary!” declares Raeven!
In this episode, as always, Lou gets into some deep and honest conversation with Raeven Western - a Mother, Model and Coach!
Some of the beautiful gems that surfaced during this episode are curated below, BUT it is all the more beautiful to listen in and distill your own take-aways….there may just be something that speaks directly to YOU!
When we share on public platforms, is it opening us up to connect or for critique? Push the critics aside and create connection through vulnerability. Let the uncertainty open up and just embrace it.
“Doing the work” , the inner work, is part of the journey of establishing an honest relationship with ‘self’. Find joy in the journey of growth and stretching your capacity beyond your mind’s limitations.
The need and the necessity for REST is key to a healthy self and recognising when you need to rest, is part of healing. The idea of seeming ‘crazy’ to others, can be a display of your inner brokenness sometimes, but allowing the raw pain space to come undone and then loving yourself back to healing is all part of your self-care journey.
IMPORTANT to note in the self-care journey;it’s a must in fact: is an ongoing process of “filling up your cup”, strengthening your spirituality, keeping aligned with your wellbeing. The importance of feeling good from the inside out!!!! That’s the key on this journey.
The importance of using resources to fulfil and provide the necessary self-care practices. Trusting the process and being radical about your self care. Recognising that there is growth in imperfection and the importance of breaks, boundaries and balance. Taking space and allowing healing to happen in increments.
The one thing that Raeven and Lou agree on is reminders to give ourselves Grace and Hugs all the time!
Learning to prioritize your self-care and honor the relationship with self is a giant motivator to grow forward without seeking perfection, but getting up to par with moving forward toward your dreams and goals!
Keeping friends around that encourage and support you and also sharing things with friends of support is like planting a seed.
Raeven and Lou chatted about the challenges of learning to navigate the new space of homeschool, virtual learning, living and being together with our children.
Giving our children the space to grow and learn themselves, but also giving breaks and grace to our children and ourselves so they see a good model of the self-care relationship.
Moving forward from moments of tension by allowing authenticity and vulnerability to flow.
The importance of having mama friends and gleaning from their experiences can inform your own parenting journey.
How pouring into yourself is the greatest motivator. Taking care of the Self and your spirituality, however that translates for you.
Filling the spaces of gratitude, love and purpose is what keeps us going...How about you? Leave a comment and let us know what your self-care looks like.
