7 Softening Practices for Greater Strength & Self Connection

I loved recording this episode, because it was such an important reminder to myself that there is so much strength in softening.

The quote that inspired this conversation: “Remember, you are creator of your life, not a manager of your circumstance. Prime yourself. Decide what to focus on.”

This message landed so profoundly for me, but I reflect on how, just eighteen months ago, it would have felt impossible to embrace. I walk you through the tender journey from managing my circumstances amidst grief, dysregulation, PTSD, and perimenopause, to discovering the incredible strength that comes from softening.

I explore the transformative power of surrender and the seven ways we can intentionally soften in order to become stronger in all areas of our lives. Together, we look at how softening self-judgment can strengthen self-belief, and why letting go of rigid definitions opens up new possibilities. I invite you to notice the stories you carry about yourself, consider the regrets that might be weighing you down, and challenge the ways you approach change—because softening these patterns strengthens your creativity, wisdom, and consistency.

I share deeply personal moments of regret, self-judgment, and the somatic release that changed everything for me. We talk about what it means to soften your past to empower your present and future, and the incredible shifts that come when we reconnect gently with our bodies. Throughout the episode, I encourage you to make this inquiry your own: what would it look like to soften, just a little, in each of these areas of life?

This conversation is an invitation to create space for self-love, surrender, and true transformation as you navigate whatever season you’re in. Brew your favorite cup and join me in seeking simplicity, softness, and soulful strength.
