On today's episode, I sit down with KaRonna, a working mom struggling with something I think many of us can relate to— the inability to prioritize herself and her own needs amidst the demands of career, parenthood, and life in general, fearing she'll make the wrong decision.
As a Codependency Alchemy member, you have access to a library of resources aimed at helping you bring deeper awareness to the root of your codependency tendencies. Members looking to get the most out of their membership and wanting to start making profound shifts in their life can access masterclasses, meetups, private podcast episodes, and guided meditations.
It really took some time doing shadow work with myself to learn the consequences of not prioritizing myself, and how it left me feeling overwhelmed, burned out, and disconnected from simply being present and having capacity for the things and people I cared about the most. So many of us know something needs to shift, but aren’t sure how to break free from the anxiety that comes from fear of making the wrong choice.
I walk Codependency Alchemy member KaRonna through a powerful inner child healing process to uncover the root of her anxiety around decision-making, and she connects with a 9 year old version of herself, stuck in a painful pattern of trying to earn her father's love and approval. By the end of our session, KaRonna expresses her sense of hope and possibility that she hasn't felt in a long time around being able to prioritize fun, presence and self-care instead of constantly wondering if she is making the right choice.
Inner child healing supports us with tangible tools to reparent ourselves in moments of anxiety. If you want a step-by-step guide for doing this work on your own, you can download my free Shadow Work and Inner Child Guide to get a printable worksheet that you can use again and again!
