S2 Ep14: Over-identifying with current self problems - becoming a CHANGE MAKER instead

The new podcast is here!VALORIZE:  https://www.valorize.systems/______Episode Notes for this final episode of The Unmasking Unschool Podcast:Taking up the power to self define means reorganising your relationships to all thingsfrom the inside outinstead of the outside in.This kind of journey is profound. All encompassing. And transforms even the mundane aspects of your life.Because it starts in:How are YOU with YOU?Do you like you?Maya Angelou said 'Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.'An unmasking journey starts with PERMISSION to know what you like.Permission to know,with the kind of knowing that comes to you naturallyand to feel the knowing of what you likeas a truth.One that you are worthy of building your life around.Building your livelihood around._______________

The new podcast is here!VALORIZE:  https://www.valorize.systems/If you are someone who has learned that you have to manage your energy,your protective vigilance around your energy will be high.This relationship with your energy treats it like a finite resource that gets emptied. And needs a lot of space and time to drip back up into adequacy.It's the relationship of: managing the cost of contortion.Creating more energy, more capacity is the work of aligning your life structures with your actual truth and value.
