Triggers to Stepping Stones

Soul Empowerment Episode # 19

As children and young adults, many of us adopt or develop unconscious beliefs, stories, filters, and even inner hiding places which help us to navigate through and feel safe within our world. As adults, seeking balance within our Selves and in our relationships, these “obsolete programs” can actually take us away from what we want.

For this episode of Soul Empowerment, I am joined by two wonderful guest hosts, Kristi Borst and Sara Jane, who are sitting in for my regular partner Nancy Stevens.

You can find out more about them at their websites:

In this conversation, we touch upon:

  • Unconscious beliefs, stories, ancestral programs: We all know the story of our own life, the experiences we have had and the things that we have witnessed, that have framed who we are, how we behave and react.
  • Coping mechanisms, learned behaviors, patterns: Some of our experiences have caused us hurt and pain both physically and emotionally. From these experiences we have developed self-preservation mechanisms to protect us from further hut and pain.
  • Myth busting and illuminating our Truths: As we grow and mature, we can find ourselves automatically reverting to these old behaviors that don’t serve any purpose anymore. We will explore how you can become aware of them and understand where they came from and how you may be able to work through them and let them go.
  • Embracing and exploiting the trigger, as a gateway to more/better: Triggers are those words and/or actions that awaken the learned protective behaviors within us. Once we become aware of what they are, we can explore ways to use them to our advantage to grow and cause less stress in our lives.

Some people feel lost, stuck, or unhappy because of doing such a good job of hiding, coping, blending, etc. We cannot change what we do not see, so awareness is a huge aspect of our Soul Empowerment.
