A New Life Story: Consciously Uncovering Your Authentic Self LaShonda Walker

This season of the podcast is dedicated to Exploring, Healing, and Transforming our lives through personal stories from insightful guests and simple tools and practices to begin your journey of self discovery.


This episode is all about the traits and behaviors of your Highest Self and its connection to the Adult Chair® in The Adult Chair Model®. 


In The Adult Chair Model®, we explore three primary aspects of the self: the Child Chair, the Adolescent Chair, and the Adult Chair. Your Highest Self resides in the Adult Chair, embodying traits such as consciousness, non-judgment, curiosity, mindful decision-making, and emotional grounding.


This episode explains each of these traits and how their connection to your Highest Self empowers you to respond consciously to life's challenges, guiding you towards authentic and grounded choices. 


The episode closes with a practical exercise listeners can do to connect with their highest self, followed by these journaling prompts to help you get started


1. What situations or experiences trigger reactive responses in me, and how can I cultivate a more conscious, grounded approach in those moments?
2. How can I nurture and strengthen my connection with my highest self on a daily basis?
3. What steps can I take to integrate the wisdom and traits of my highest self into my everyday life?

19. Uncovering Your Ego: Exploring the Adolescent Chair

This episode discusses the intricate relationship between ego, identity, and the importance of taking breaks.


As a life coach, I specialize in guiding individuals through a transformative journey of exploring, healing, and ultimately, transforming. Using The Adult Chair® Model, we uncover the depths of one's past experiences to better understand the present. A crucial aspect of this process is understanding the significance of the ego, particularly during the formative years of adolescence.


During this critical period of development, spanning from ages seven to 24, individuals grapple with establishing their identity and sense of belonging. They often resort to constructing masks or personas to fit in and navigate their environments. These characters—whether the avoidant, people pleaser, fixer, perfectionist, or controller—are deeply ingrained and shaped by the adolescent psyche.


In adulthood, these personas can resurface, hindering our ability to slow down and take necessary breaks. They manifest through ingrained patterns of behavior, such as constant busyness or an inability to prioritize self-care. Recognizing these adolescent characters is vital to overcoming their influence and embracing our adult selves.

In this episode of the "A New Life Story" podcast, Jacinta Motonga, a self-love, feminine energy, and relationship coach, shares insights on tapping into masculine and feminine energies for self-love and inner balance.


Self-love, beyond superficial acts, involves self-worth, acceptance, trust, and awareness. Jacinta stresses its role in personal growth and setting boundaries to prioritize one's well-being. Understanding and meeting physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, and social needs are essential aspects.


Self-identity and awareness are crucial in this journey, connecting with the inner child for clarity and effective relationship navigation.


Balancing masculine and feminine energies is vital for healthy relationships. Masculine energy involves logic and goal-setting, while feminine energy embodies receptivity, intuition, and compassion. Imbalance can lead to issues, highlighting the importance of integrating both energies for emotional intimacy and fulfillment.


Tapping into feminine energy involves receptivity, intuition, compassion, and vulnerability, enhancing authenticity and inner balance. Self-love is fundamental in accessing and harnessing feminine energy, promoting healthier relationships and emotional intelligence.
