Ep. 52 - Releasing the Need to Please and Embracing Authentic Living with Riley Hope Matlock
Description
Are you a sensitive soul who finds yourself stuck in cycles of people-pleasing, self-sacrifice, or toxic relationships? In this powerful episode, we dive deep into self-healing, breaking generational cycles, and reclaiming your authentic voice with singer-songwriter and empath advocate Riley Hope Matlock.
Host Kathy Washburn and Riley explore the emotional journey from “Cinderella syndrome” and perfectionism to radical self-investment, creative freedom, and the art of saying “no more.” Riley opens up about overcoming stage fright, healing family trauma, her Dark Night of the Soul, and the liberating process of finding her true voice through music and therapy. She also discusses the impact of boundaries, reclaiming personal power, learning to “breathe deep and rest easy,” and how her upcoming album, “Symphonic Alchemy,” guides listeners from pain to empowerment.
