***************************************

Emotions are our internal compass, guiding us through life. But many of us, especially those with a mother wound, learn early to suppress our feelings because we don’t know how to process them or feel they’re unimportant. As children, we lacked the power to act on those feelings, so we buried them instead.

The truth is, when we disconnect from our emotions, we lose our way. We rely on others to dictate how we should feel or act, but that only leads to confusion. Reconnecting with our emotions is about reclaiming our inner compass, learning to feel and understand what’s happening within us without judgment

The power to heal and live authentically lies in embracing our emotions. When we do, we can make decisions that align with who we truly are, not what others expect of us. Reclaiming your emotional truth is the first step to finding your true direction.

In this episode, we’re going to talk about the power of reconnecting with your emotions and how they play a vital role in managing your emotional health. We’ll explore healing the mother wound, dealing with emotional disconnect, and learning to listen to your internal compass so you can live a more empowered life. Join me as I share insights and practical steps to help you reclaim your emotional sovereignty, stop relying on others’ emotional GPS, and start living by your own compass.
