S5E17 - Performing to Belong (with Mary Jane)

<p>Today&#39;s podcast is for anyone who has ever felt the tension trying to <em>be </em>authentic, and <em>feeling</em> authentic. </p><p>Perhaps you&#39;ve collected healing modalities, searched for the &quot;right&quot; teacher, or found yourself trying to fit into ways of practising that never quite felt like home. Perhaps you&#39;ve wondered whether the parts of you that feel &quot;too different&quot;, &quot;too weird&quot; or &quot;too much&quot; really have a place.</p><p>In this episode, I&#39;m joined by Spirit-led Reiki graduate Mary Jane for a heartfelt conversation about authenticity, belonging and the courage to stop shaping yourself to fit someone else&#39;s path.</p><p>Together we explore the journey from wanting to <em>be</em> authentic to genuinely <em>feeling</em> authentic, what it means to trust your own relationship with Spirit, and how embracing your uniqueness can transform not only your healing, but the way you serve others.</p><p><strong>Five perspective shifts by the end of listening in:</strong></p><p>- Why collecting healing modalities can become a search for certainty </p><p>- Authenticity as the by-product of trusting yourself, rather than fitting in</p><p>-What if the frustration you&#39;ve felt with inherited spiritual systems wasn&#39;t resistance - but discernment?</p><p>-The qualities you&#39;ve spent your life trying to hide may be the very qualities your medicine is asking you to embody.</p><p>-The courage to be different isn&#39;t about standing apart from others; it&#39;s about allowing yourself to stand as you actually are.</p><p><strong>No cost community: </strong><a href="https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/</strong></a></p><p><strong>3 part no cost workshop: </strong><a href="https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/</strong></a></p><p><strong>Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: </strong><a href="https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/</strong></a></p><p><strong>UNDILUTED no cost weekly round up to your inbox: </strong><a href="https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732</strong></a><strong></strong></p><p><strong>You&#39;ll find me most on </strong><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@reikiredefined" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>Tiktok</strong></a><strong> @reikiredefined</strong></p><p><strong>___</strong></p><p><strong>You&#39;ll find Mary Jane here: </strong><a href="https://www.rockymountainreikiroom.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><strong>https://www.rockymountainreikiroom.com</strong></a><strong>___</strong></p><p><br></p>
