31. Honoring Your Feelings with Sophie Watson

Sophie Watson worked in the health industry for over 20 years when she came to a breaking point and felt like she wasn’t in control of her own life. She started working on herself and today works with other women to create lives they love.

In today’s episode, we talk about how to overcome the difficult times in life and how it’s important to allow yourself to feel what you’re feeling without trying to fix or change those emotions. Sophie gives us a lot of ideas for things we can do when we’re in the middle of grief to honor the feelings while also allowing us to move through it at our own pace. Tune in to find out more!

 

Five key takeaways from this episode:

1. Once you make a decision about something that aligns with your highest self, the universe will put the right people and situations in front of you. Don’t ignore the signs. It’s showing you that you’re on the right path.
2. When things in your life seem overwhelming, find things that make you feel better and do those things. If that means watching a movie on repeat for a while, that’s ok. There is no right or wrong way to feel grief and there is no right or wrong way to feel better.
3. If your energy isn’t where you would like it to be for yourself, your business, or any part of your life, it’s ok to put things on pause for a bit while you work through it. Be kind to yourself and take care of yourself.
4. Allow yourself to feel your feelings as they come and don’t deny them. Try some practices to bring more awareness to your feelings and to lift you up such as meditation, listening to music, or getting out in nature.
5. The best way to get out of your head is to be in the present moment and recognize what you are grateful for. Notice your surroundings and what you love about those things and it will help you bring you out of your head and into your heart. And if you cry, that’s perfectly ok. We are all human beings and we all cry sometimes.
