Description

In today's episode, I go into something nobody tells you about self-devotion and what it actually feels like when you start putting yourself first.

Self-devotion isn’t bubble baths, crystals, or surface-level “self-love.” It’s deeper, at times grittier, the raw, heartbreaking, while also liberating journey of finally choosing you first, no matter who it disappoints.

In this episode, I riff on:

  • Why self-devotion feels more like heartbreak than peace and rainbows at first
  • The difference between self-care, self-love, and true self-devotion
  • How devotion forces you to raise your standards and piss people off
  • Why momentum doesn’t come from hustling, it comes from energy moving you
  • The heartbreak of saying no to clients, contracts, friendships, and relationships that no longer align
  • Power leaks vs. power holding and how to stop outsourcing your power
  • Reflection questions to filter every decision through: Who do I love more? Me or them?

If this cracked something open in you, don’t keep it to yourself. You already know what to do:
