94. Self-Awareness Doesn't Have To Be Serious

Spiraling Higher

Show Notes

We're all about healing and becoming self-aware of your limiting patterns here on the Spiraling Higher podcast...but not ALL self-awareness needs to be so serious or in service to fixing parts of yourself that you deem problematic. Self-awareness also includes knowing and appreciating all of the AMAZING, fun, delightful parts of yourself too!

It's easy to forget how many incredibly awesome things there are to know and love about ourselves when we are constantly being bombarded with ways to "fix" or improve ourselves. We wanted this episode to be a reflection of the fact that healing can also be light by taking the opportunity to share the beautiful things we love about each other.

Our loved ones can sometimes see us more clearly than we can see our own selves because they see us through the eyes of love, as opposed to our own judgmental eyes. Sometimes all we can see in ourselves is darkness when the truth is that we are far more than our patterns.

This fun conversation seeks to remind you that you are bigger than the patterns you've become aware of and that your self-awareness is incomplete if it does not include wonderfully positive things about yourself.

We hope you will try the fun exercise we did on yourself or with a loved one! You might be surprised to see what they see in you :)

People pleasing, or authenticity suppression as we like to call it, is a natural adaptive mechanism humans have used for centuries to attain approval, acceptance, and ultimately, safety. While in conscious, small doses this social mirroring can help us feel connected and related to others, it can also begin to erase our sense of self and our confidence if used too much.

We can't believe it's been 3 years now since we decided to go ALL IN on the podcast. There’s been SO much healing, re-learning and letting go in these past 3 years and somehow it’s possible to sum up the hardest, most valuable lessons we have gained on our journeys together.

We are throwing it back to the incredible in-person conversation we had with Danielle LaPorte, where we explored a question so many of us face on our healing journey: When is enough, enough?

We're throwing it back to this transformational episode with coach Xavier Dagba about the "dark night of the soul." Xavier shares his raw journey—disappointing his parents, dropping out of school (on a full scholarship!), and even facing homelessness—before finally stepping into his true gifts.
