In this bonus episode, I’m reflecting on what it really means to become the woman I’ve always dreamed of being.Inspired by an episode of Girlfriends where Joan questions whether she’s enough just as she is, I unpack the deeper layers of self-concept, how it forms, how it gets disrupted, and how we begin to rewrite it with intention. I share the subtle ways I used to shrink myself, the fears that shaped my identity, and the shift that happened when I stopped performing and started embodying who I truly am.Timestamps 00:00 The Power of Self-Concept03:28 Revisiting Personal Narratives09:30 Becoming Your Dream Self12:44 Embodying Your True SelfIf this resonates, share it with a friend who’s on their own journey back to themselves.#LivingDvnly #SelfConcept #BecomingHer #IdentityWork #SoftPower #HealingJourney #EmbodyHer #IntentionalLiving #PersonalGrowth #PodcastForWomen #SpiritualSelfDevelopment #GirlfriendsTVInspired #RootedInTruth #RefinedByDesign

In this episode of Living Dvnly, I’m reflecting on what it’s been like building an online presence since I was 21, before I had the language, clarity, or confidence I hold now. I open up about why I’m actually grateful I didn’t grow too fast, the sacredness of slow expansion, and how I’ve stayed rooted through years of evolution, doubt, and comparison.

This conversation is a love letter to every version of me who showed up before she felt ready and an invitation to you to honor your own process. If you’ve ever felt behind, invisible, or uncertain about your path, I hope this reminds you: you’re right on time.

In this episode of Living Dvnly, we explore the truth many of us overlook: alignment won’t land if your nervous system isn’t ready to hold it.Pulling inspiration from personal experiences, I break down why so many of us feel stuck, not because we’re lost, but because we’re expanding beyond the version of ourselves that was built for survival.You’ll learn how to build emotional and energetic capacity through nervous system awareness, gentle self-regulation, and releasing beliefs that keep you trapped in cycles of overwhelm. Whether you’re in a season of transition, healing, or simply trying to make sense of your “in-between,” this conversation serves as a reminder to slow down and remember: you're not behind, you’re becoming.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Personal Connection01:35 Revisiting Being Mary Jane and Its Themes04:45 Understanding Alignment and Capacity08:34 The Role of the Nervous System in Healing12:18 Practices for Expanding Capacity16:30 Choosing Restoration Over Optimization17:21 Embracing Flexibility and Intentional GrowthSubscribe + Follow for weekly episodes on healing, identity, and becoming.Join the conversation: @livingdvnly on IG + TikTok#LivingDvnly #NervousSystemHealing #EmotionalCapacity #HealingJourney #AlignedLiving #IntentionalLiving #SlowGrowth #MentalHealthAwareness #SelfRegulation #spiritualexpansion #HighFunctioningAnxiety
