For years and years now, there has been a desire that I’ve had really deep in my heart. It is a desire that I’ve written about and dreamt about over and over. A desire to have a career as an author, speaker, and transformational leader.

I’ve had this desire for years, yet I’ve denied myself permission to go after it. Why?

Well, if you know me then you know that the answer comes back down to supremacy and supremacy culture's impact on us. It comes back to the ways that we’ve internalized supremacy, the parts that tell us that we're not good enough, that we're not worthy enough, that we're not valuable, that we can't achieve our dreams, that we can't experience that thing that our heart truly desires.

In today’s episode we're talking about why it is that you hold yourself back from your desires and your dreams and how to break out of that cycle.

In today’s episode, we cover:

• Why I am so over being a therapist
• How supremacy culture has conditioned us to believe that we're not good enough
• Taking full ownership of your dreams and your desires
• Leaving fear, scarcity, and lack behind you
• How to say “yes” to yourself and your dreams

Quotes

[00:03:30] For generations and even thousands and thousands of years, we have been taught that we're not important, that we don't matter, and that we have nothing to offer. And even though on a conscious level, you may know how untrue that is, yet on your subconscious level because of the ways your brain your body and your nervous system have been conditioned by supremacy, on an unconscious level you truly do believe that you aren't important, you aren't worthy, you don't matter.

[00:20:45] That is what I have been dreaming of, envisioning and have wanted so deeply in my heart. But I didn't think that I was important enough, that I was worthy enough, that I was valuable enough to be able to take full out 100% ownership of that vision and that dream.

[00:23:48] The reason we withhold permission from ourselves, the reason we deny ourselves our desires and our dreams is because this is the way that we've been programmed and conditioned. This is what lives so deep inside of us. This is what that programming has been for millennia
