Five Lemons Laughing

In Episode 2 of our Standing in Your Power series, we explore the deeply rooted belief that we're not enough—and how to release it with love, awareness, and spiritual practice. If you've ever struggled with shame, self-doubt, or striving to prove your worth, this conversation is for you. 💛   🌟 Welcome back to Five Lemons Laughing! This is Episode 2 of our 4-part series: Standing in Your Power — conversations about releasing the stories that keep us small and stepping boldly into our truth. In this powerful episode, Penny, Melissa, and Morgan explore the inner narrative that whispers "I'm not enough." With honesty, humor, and spiritual insight, they reveal how shame shows up in sneaky ways — and how to meet it with presence, compassion, and courage. Together, we'll examine: The ego's "specialness" trap (thanks, A Course in Miracles) How busyness, perfectionism & overachieving mask unworthiness Ways we seek worth through relationships, productivity, and approval Using emotion as guidance — not as evidence something's wrong The power of awareness to dissolve harmful beliefs Meditation, resistance, and showing up for ourselves Remembering that you need do nothing to earn love 💛 🔁 This episode is both gentle and fierce — a call to stop apologizing for your brilliance and to claim your wholeness now. 🧠  Quotes & Insights We Love: "Shame says there's something wrong with me. But I know the Truth with a capital T." "The ego wants to be special—even if it means being especially bad." "Awareness is curative. What we're not aware of will keep running the show." "You are already enough. You just forgot." 📚  Resources Mentioned: A Course in Miracles – Lessons 284 + 285 "Awareness is curative" – Jennifer Hadley Al-Anon spiritual recovery insights 🙌  Join the Conversation ✅ Subscribe & follow for more real, spirit-led episodes 💬 What's one belief you're ready to release?

In this week's episode of Five Lemons Laughing, Amanda, Morgan, and Melissa explore a question that touches every relationship: 👉 Can you be right and still be in Love (with a capital L)? The ego loves to win, to fix, and to control. But intimacy isn't something you can win or manipulate. Together, we dive into the subtle ways ego sneaks into our marriages, friendships, and even our spiritual communities—often disguised as caretaking, peacemaking, or "being the more evolved one." You'll hear: Real-life stories of ego showing up in marriage and family dynamics The difference between love (small "l") and Love (big "L") How "spiritual ego" blocks intimacy and connection Tools and practices: A Course in Miracles responsibility principle, Byron Katie's turnarounds, Ho'oponopono prayer, and kundalini yoga The power of self-love and awareness to shift from conditional to unconditional relationships ✨ Key takeaway: Awareness is curative. When we notice ego's manipulations, we open the door to deeper connection, authentic love, and healing. 🔗 Resources Mentioned A Course in Miracles (ACIM) Jennifer Hadley – "Awareness is Curative" Byron Katie – The Work Ho'oponopono practice Kundalini yoga (self-regulation & discomfort practice) Alan Watts – life as a song metaphor 🙌 Support Five Lemons Laughing Subscribe and leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

This week on Five Lemons Laughing, we're diving into one of the most powerful affirmations from A Course in Miracles: "I am here only to be truly helpful."
