Episode: Finding my voice through Meditation
Description: Growing up I was always taught that my guiding light was outside of myself. That my internal voice was not one to be trusted. Even worse, it was wayward, wicked, and deceitful. I was taught to look to pastors, teachers and older men to find out how I SHOULD be.ย Carrying around the SHOULDs of other people eventually started to feel more like a hinderance than a honorable burden.ย It was through meditation that I was able to begin to get enough space to see myself following others, instead of thinking and feeling based on me.ย
