105: Boundaries, Self-Honouring & Overcoming People Pleasing




Awaken Radio Podcast show

Summary: In today’s episode, I dive into a raw and honest conversation about boundaries and I share some of my current challenges in this area.⁣ ⁣ I talk about the importance of clearly communicating our boundaries so they are not just 'unspoken expectations' that when broken leave us feeling resentful and unsupported. ⁣ ⁣ And I dive into the reason why many of us struggle with implementing boundaries which stems from our learned patterns of people-pleasing, seeking external love, putting others before ourselves and needing to be liked.⁣ ⁣ This conversation is about practising self-love and self-honouring, valuing yourself and having the courage to prioritise your wants and needs. ⁣ In this episode I cover: - What it means to honour yourself and how to practice this - Why our boundaries are our responsibility - The danger of holding unspoken expectations - How to get clear on the boundaries you want and need to set - The importance of speaking up and having uncomfortable conversations - How patterns of people-pleasing stop you implementing boundaries - Practising self-forgiveness - How to begin honouring your own feelings and needs - Breaking the cycle of self-abandonment - Indicators that our boundaries have been broken - The power of your anger and why it needs to be honoured - Using your inner masculine energy to implement boundaries - Why honouring yourself inspires others to do the same Connect With Me: Instagram: www.instagram.com/connie_chapman Facebook: www.facebook.com/conniechapmanpage Email: hello@conniechapman.com Website: www.conniechapman.com If you love Awaken Radio, be sure to subscribe and leave the show a rating and review on iTunes, as this will help it reach and support more people.
