How To Break FREE From The Self-Awareness TRAP | Dr. Shefali
Podcast
Show Notes:
What does consciousness really mean, and how does it play a role in our lives?
If we look at the definition of consciousness, which is 'the quality or state of being aware especially of something within oneself', then we can start to understand how pivotal it is.
My recent conversation with Dr. Shefali looks at this in depth, and we discuss how consciousness is something that can have a bigger impact on our lives and relationships than we could have ever thought.
What began as a discussion about self-awareness evolved into a deep exploration of how consciousness can transform every aspect of our lives, from our relationships to our sense of purpose.
Skip to 8 minutes and 40 seconds to understand how we can turn suffering into personal growth.
In this episode, you'll also learn:
How we can embrace change
Why taking responsibility is at the heart of personal growth and empowerment
What it means to really live authentically
And much more
Dr. Shefali not only offers insights and strategies, but we confront truths such as: Are we self-aware? How can we reclaim power in relationships? Why is understanding our shadow essential?
Whatever the main relationships in your life, be it romantic, professional or as a parent, this episode will shine a light on how you can show up with self-awareness and authenticity.
Dr. Shefali is a NYT bestselling author of books on conscious parenting and living. Oprah calls her "revolutionary" and "the best child expert" she's interviewed, and her message has reached millions through social media and appearances.
This conversation gave me a new perspective on conscious living and tools for self-discovery, and I hope you take away from this as much as I did.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts
